I've been really getting into riding my road bike. First roadie ever. 50+ miles a week and a big ride on the weekend.
Right before my big ride yesterday I notice I have a flat right before heading out. I can't immediately patch it and don't have an extra tube.
So I took my old dorky mid 10's 6061 T6 aluminum framed shit Diamondback hardtail out to the rec area and rode the fuck out of it on XC trails.
It got me out of my comfort zone. Stop being so judgmental. One of the great things about biking is there are so many different styles and varieties. You can be poor as shit or a millionaire and enjoy it. You can be a DYEL elongated sketeton on a TT bike, a 10 y.o. mexican kid on a BMX or a 350lb fat guy on a touring bike with 36 spoke wheels.
Biking fucking rules and OP is a dummy.
