>>1400576"Just Ride" is the fat acceptance movement for "returning cyclists" who gave up on being fit or technically competent even before getting on a bike for the first time in 20 years.
They researched the fuck out of everything because they were afraid of getting hazed by non-cyclists and cyclists alike. And their paranoia and latent anti-cyclist feelings were vindicated by a man named Grant Peterson. So they can now walk into a bike shop and say "give me a bike that doesn't look like it's for those CYCLISTS ugh, with their CYCLING clothes and their CYCLING bicycle"
After getting kicked out of the shop, they'll go online and order a $2500 frame with an extra tube for what reason? Well of course because steel is REAL unlike carbon which shatters. So real in fact that you can't just get by with a traditional frame design, nah it needs to be reinforced, mostly because unracers are ham planets.
Then the box arrives and they've already alienated the local shop owner and they're too stupid to use a hex wrench so they just go online and complain about these militant LYCRA NAZIS who keep judging them. There we go, I did a bike thing!
