    Gravel Do you just go searching for routes?

    That's the thing. With the country, you trade peace for earning more wage like you will in the city.

    Where did you ride your bike today?

    Rode the day before yesterday. Good ride but it was very humid. Felt like 105-F or 40-C.

    Anyone use the Garmin Varia light?

    I'm sure you can Amazon it much cheaper, find one that has a no name brand. Probably last just as long, too.

    Should you wear your club jersey on every group ride?

    I always try to wear my club kit when I ride with my club, which isn't very often.

    Rain gear for cyclists

    I have a Baleaf brand raincoat that I will wear but that's about all I wear for the rain. I won't ride in wet weather when it's cold outside. I just can't do it. I'll hike instead :D

    Should We Ban Phones at the Dinner Table?

    I can't put mine in airplane mode because I'm on call 24/7 for my job. If I bet called at night, then something is wrong, and I usually have to race to work.

    Team Cars are a danger

    How often do you wash your bike? How about your chain? How often do you wash your chain and reapply chain lubricant?

    Anyone use the Garmin Varia light?

    It's expensive. https://www.rei.com/product/182344/garmin-varia-rtl515-rearview-radar-taillight Like $200. But it's a radar that will detect vehicles coming at you and alert you on your bike computer. I've not got it yet, but I am considering it.

    Will you bike in really cold weather? As in freezing temperatures and even snow and ice conditions? How do you keep yourself comfortable cycling in the cold?

    Mountain Riding in the summer months

    Will you ride singletrack in the summer months? With spider webs, ticks, undergrowth, and everything annoying that comes with summer - will you still ride, or do you wait until it cools down?

    Hot weather cycling

    I have thick skin, and it doesn't burn easily. I was always told it is the Native American in me, Cherokee and Blackfoot.

    How's your weather today?

    Wow -- that's insane!

    Gravel Do you just go searching for routes?

    For sure. I try to pick area with a lot of forest on both sides, too. I'm lucky enough to live in the middle of a National Forest so I have a lot of access to those types of areas.

    Should We Ban Phones at the Dinner Table?

    That's probably a good thing! We shouldn't have our phones available for every moment. My wife wakes up and looks at hers when we're sleeping. I'm sure it's not good on her eyes but she wakes up and can't go back to sleep sometimes and gets bored.
