I always end up running out of gearing with a 46t when in route to the trails.. I understand you think you are some eilte rider that 'knows' everything about biking but I think you are just weak as fuck.

i was reminded of this thread yesterday because i was riding my mudguard wearing surly home, loaded up with a bunch of shit on the front, drunk, in the rain, and i passed some skinny roadie who i saw take off from the train station about 40 seconds before me on a double digit climb i'm sure he had already ridden like 100km that day or something, but it was funny
Anonymous
>>1861825 lol yeah thats the thing about roadies
you can never be smug about passing them
actually letting other cunts pass you is the biggest flex
bonus asshole points for sort of looming cruisily a little behind them and making them ride a faster pace than otherwise to justify it.
Anonymous
>>1861827 i was at a beer tasting thing and had been standing around drunk in the rain for hours and was so keen to get home. i feel a bit faster in light rain, i think because i don't cook myself as much on the really steep stuff
>looming cruisily a little behind them and making them ride a faster pace than otherwise to justify it lmfao, i do this a lot. i get passed because i look slow so they never expect me to be able to hang. i feed on the terror they experience being followed by a guy in sandals and an electric wizard t-shirt

I own a Brompton and a £600 hybrid Boardman, I sometimes get passed by lycra wearing "roadies" when I'm on country roads, however, I don't let this bother me. I notice that invariably, roadies have really unattractive physiques, they seem to cardio themselves to auschwitz mode. It's true of the professional tour de France guys too, unfortunately the ultra stamina geared body looks indistinguishable from an average skinny dude who has a heroin problem. Only the track cyclists have massive quads. It's best to use cycling for either commuting or for leisure. That way, you can use weight lifting to get shredded and still look good. The guys doing time trials etc. look skinny and unhealthy.

>>1863411 >look skinny and unhealthy You're wrong. Their physique is peak endurance and thus very healthy. If anything the ripped guys are the ones with an unnaturally buff physique.
