>>2064975 my city has six broad categories of waste and about 20 subcategories that need to be separated. there are four pickup days per week for the different categories, you're supposed to put waste out before 7am on pickup day, not the night before. in reality all of these rules are ignored and people put everything but bottles and cans in combustible, whenever they feel like it

>>2064756 through running mainly. Shitetsu and subways generally handle mishaps better though; they'll sever connections to isolate problem areas relatively quickly, JR doesn't really do this on it's own lines as evidenced above where they suspend services between Zushi and Ofuna when the problem is all the way up at Akabane. Seeing direct service suspensions between jr and other operators like rinkai and tozai is fairly common though. Keikyu is probably the gold standard for flexibility and fast recovery, they'll turn trains basically anywhere and change your train at tsurumi from a kanagawa shinmachi bound local to a haneda bound limited express without hesitation if that's what will keep things moving.

Next Friday: "JR East preemptively suspended all service in the Tokyo metropolitan area earlier today because 'something was going to go wrong anyway,' says Kise Yoichi, President and CEO." At least today wasn't their fault.

I still don't get countersteering, I've been cycling all my life and I don't think about "oh I have to move the bike to the right to turn left", I just naturally follow the path and move the bike and she moves exactly how I want her to Then I learn about countersteering and I'm wondering if I've been riding wrong my whole life

You don't really notice yourself countersteering until you're riding around pedestrians, you may do it instinctively and not even notice but they notice

Road signs. What do you think of them? Which country does them the best? Would you change anything in the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals?
Anonymous
>>2063145 UK
Blue. Motorways (highways with few turn offs)
Green. A roads (fast smaller roads linking places)
White. Local roads (you got there and need to find a pub)

Look at the warning sign. Why is the black rim rounded in the corners but on the interior only?? Makes the corners look extremely prominent when viewed from close up. Probably the worst designed feature of Japanese road signs. AFAIK no other country with diamond warning signs does this.

>>2064229 It wouldn't be able to run in the UK. It's Cape Gauge, and it would cost a small fortune to build a railway for it or convert it to Standard Gauge.
Plus it has a huge grate and is probably equivalent to 2x UK 4-6-0s or Pacifics in terms of coal burn.

>>2065018 its also a mismatch sora rd ultegra shifters etc
Anonymous
>>2065023 well lack of mounting points is the biggest offender for sure but then you also get "tite gaps" that barely fits 25-28 tires, aggressive racer geometry, 90s garbage aluminium and also frame size is difficult to find since most people here are manlets.
Anonymous
>>2065027 I see. You want the larger tyres and larger frame size. Might be better to buy a new entry level bike and replace the parts you don't like.

>>2065024 I've mismatched shifters before with no consequence so that's probably ok. Shimano standard is pretty uniform as far as I know.

>>2065028 yeah I had a choice of getting some new hi-ten mystery steel frame that is practical but even the cheapest one would cost double in comparison to a good vintage bike. I will stock up on a few vintage frames when I see some on sale since in comparison to say 12 years ago the market is very dry now and some of them aged poorly with rust and neglect. Right now the market is full with BSO, electric and used aluminium/ carbon bikes, clock is ticking for practical steel bikes.

Is there still a fixie subculture anywhere out there, or am I showing my age? Im still enamored with the whole “fixie punk” aesthetic. Considering jumping back on social media is there are still people doing this. But I realize its a niche subculture from the early 2000’s thats been made fun of since day 1.

I was thinking of picking up one of those cheapo Aliexpress carbon forks, but my buddy probably rightfully talked me out of it due to safety concerns. Where should I buy an affordable carbon fork in 26" for rim brakes (in Yurop)?

As an ali express and ebay special enthusiast just wanna pop in and give some insight. In my experience I've yet to have an aluminium ebay special or aliexpress part break on me. I've heard of people having issues with cheap chinese carbon constantly. If you're going to go cheap aluminium may be ok but understand the risk you're potentially taking. I've had no catastrophic failures and I ride my bike everyday.
