    Lycra Required?

    I could probably go a few miles without it, but I never do, I always put on bib shorts or bib tights.

    e-Mountain Bikes on Mountain Bike Trails

    But you'll get that with anything. People who are new to hiking and have no business hiking on rugged trails have to be rescued all the time because they chose to hike down a rugged trail.

    Lycra Required?

    Without a chamois, I don't think I would like cycling that much LOL I'm Team Lycra but to each their own :)

    Stay 3 feet away flag

    Yeah. A visible camera (even if just a dummy) might also be a great deterrent for bad drivers.

    E-Bike cheaters

    You're right, but I'm sure there are some hardcore Strava folks who freak out about it. I'm definitely NOT setting any records myself LOL My goals are to beat my own records and just improve.

    If you couldn't bike for 3 months..

    For whatever reason... If you couldn't bike for 30 days indoors or outdoors, what would you do with yourself?

    Lycra Required?

    Do you really need Lycra to be a serious cyclist? There are many people who do not want to wear the stuff we usually wear and sometimes, I think they get treated as people who are not as serious. What do you all think?

    E-Bike cheaters

    Are people using e-bikes to cheat for PRs and Strava levels? Do you think people are out there doing this? Locally?

    What did you buy last?

    Just a fun topic saying what you bought last! It can be anything, not just bike stuff! For me, it was bike stuff: New road/gravel helmet from Bike Surgeon New Garmin mounting bracket for the Chisel also from Bike Surgeon

    Stay 3 feet away flag

    Saw a couple people road biking the other day around where I live. One ride had a stick with a flag at the end attached to his bike where a vehicle passing would have to keep a distance from him or they would hit the flag. Have any of you ever seen this before? Do you think it's a good idea...

    Black Friday Ride

    I'm leading a hike around Crow Knob and Miller Grove Cemetery area. I figured anywhere from a dozen or couple dozen will show up.
