Thanks McB. Can't wait to race again, that was a blast.

Here's me on lap 4, about to get dropped

Nice weather is here. Back to biking.

Just ordered this bad boy ebike to replace my single speed cruiser (expected delivery June 7 - shipped from California) from amazon:

those tires.

whoa.
good mourning kato san.

Yes, 4 inch wide 20 inch fatties!

Researched about 6 different ebikes in various sizes and styles before settling on this one.
Gets very good reviews across multiple unrelated sites and forums.

At first I thought it was a kids bike but I see 6'2 men riding it no problem, can support up to 330lbs ( we are under 3 bills here so no worries)
Its sturdy, fast and it folds which is a hugh bonus, can take it on the train up to Toronto no problem.

This thing is supposed to be great in winter as well.

Thanks pal, got down to 250 but have gained 25lbs over the winter, so I'm now ~275.

Should be able to shed this (25lbs) over the summer. I don't think I'll be able to get to 200 as my genetics (and age) just won't allow it. 250 is fine though. Much better than 392!!!

There are LOTS of trails/paths nearby to bike on. Actually Windsor/Essex is a very good location for cyclists.

I was 245 then went down to 200 during my euro sting and now back to 230, if you reached 250 you can reach 200

Something peculiar I noticed, before I couldn't fit size 34 pants anymore and after losing the weight and now gaining it back I still fit all the euro fag skinny size 34 and 32 jeans I bought over there even though I gained the weight back, when before I couldn't :square:

So you're saying I should go to Europe?
Not a bad idea amigo!
 
I started commuting on my bike since the weather turned nice up here. Last night on the way home, I was following this kid wearing a full spandex kit on the bike trail. I was wearing Converse, jeans and a backpack. He seemed to tire out after a while so I pulled ahead and he drafted behind me. We never exchanged a word. I looked for his ride on Strava when I came home and found this, which made my day (the caption under Evening Ride):
