Thanks for the opportunity to vent my love for gravel bikes.

Thank you for the opportunity to read it!

My father is also a road cyclist, so I didn’t grow up on mountain/hybrid bikes like most other children do; road bikes are pretty much all I know. I’d love to dip into other disciplines, but I don’t want to spend a bunch of money on a bike and then find out I don’t like it. However, I do fully agree with your point about road bikes being restrictive; I often have to take longer, much busier routes around my town when I could just take one of the many trails that go all throughout it. I don’t plan on doing any sort of technical trails, but I’d still like to have the ability to do the most basic of off-roading.

The thing is, I don’t really care about the number on my bike computer/watch’s speedometer. I just want to feel fast; I want to feel the wind, the rattle of the bike against the road, the momentum shift as I lean into a corner. That’s what I enjoy. From what I’m reading, you seem to get that very same thing! Perhaps gravel bikes aren’t too bad after all ;)

Things have to get real bad before people realize they need to get better. I’m hoping that happens here

Doesn’t matter. Sacrilege…

Bishop F1 takes on H3. Zombies are sacrilege

LibreOffice for the win

Not once have I encountered one. I don’t mind them, though

Could it be that there are a lot of VPN hosts in the hentai regions and worldwide preferences are effecting the stats? Some VPN services I have used in the past have had Swedish servers around there

During Helene, I had a tree fall through my house while I was in bed, and it stopped about 6 inches from my face

I fully agree, lol. I browse ich_iel with reading glasses and a dictionary

I’m learning German, too! I took 3 years in school and wanted to continue my education on my own. So far, it’s… going

Remember the Titans. Absolute cinema

HUGE second on all of these

All of my interests are niche, so this SHOULD happen to me all the time. The thing is, I have about 40,000,000 of them, so I usually get inspired to work on something else when I get bored

It had it coming

Nope. It has to come straight from the starfish

Intellectual? Perhaps. Civil? Not always…

I just picked up Blindsight at my county library. What a coincidence

Hot ass water

Edit: Clarification: Poor hot ass water on it or dunk it in hot ass water

Edit 2, electric boogaloo: This is dependent on the material, according to my mother

Now fork it and use OpenRC

Wouldn’t the bottom right be sin?
