    Where did you ride your bike today?

    I got a 5K in. It was really hot. I'm still feeling a little sickly from the heat. I probably pushed harder than I should have. Sorry about your buddy. Always sucks to lose people we love.

    Fat Bike Do Fat Bikes Really Belong Outside of Snow and Sand?

    I'd ride one and see how it is. I never have. But my MTB tires are 29ers so they're pretty big and wide when compared to other bike tires, but nothing like a fat bike.

    How's your weather today?

    We've had quite a few bad tornadoes this year.

    Gravel Do you just go searching for routes?

    I totally agree :) I live in a rural area so it's pretty bike-friendly. I'm usually riding faster than the farmers on tractors. They all know me so they wave and are friendly. Heck, a lot of them ride bikes, too.

    Should We Ban Phones at the Dinner Table?

    Oh, me as well. I'm guilty of just eating dinner at my computer desk instead of with my wife. But she'll be on her phone, as well.

    Where did you ride your bike today?

    Nice. I was going to get in a run yesterday but storms stopped me. Hoping to do a 10K run today.

    E-Bike Should E-Bike Riders Be Required to Have a License?

    What about Class 1-3 e-bikes? The real e-bikes. Class-1 and 2 can't go over 20 MPH. I can easily ride more than 20 MPH on my regular bike. Class 3 tops out at 28. All these faster "e-bikes" are just electric motorcycles.

    Is Over-Maintenance Making Us Worse Riders?

    It really can, especially with YouTube University!

    Are your kids into cycling?

    Yep. Now if my grandchildren don't want to ride, I'd never force them to, but the goal is to get them into it early and hopefully it sticks :D

    Are Helmets Really Necessary for Adults?

    I used to only wear one when I road biked. Now I wear one no matter what. But I'll admit, even this year, I've forgot my helmet and rode anyways.

    Favorite YouTube Cyclists

    For motorcycles, there is a female that solo rides all over the world, even in areas where females aren't treated the best. I really like her content. She's from Europe somewhere.

    Shaving your legs

    Nair. I've used Nair before on my face. THAT was a big mistake LOL I've heard laser removal is good but can get costly.

    What type of cyclist are you?

    I'm somewhere in the middle and in all honesty, I'll probably keep hanging out in the middle.

    Ride every day

    I could ride every day if I really disciplined myself to so it. But some of that would be riding in the dark.

    Quit Cycling?

    Health reasons would have to be the reason I quit as well. If I can use an e-bike, I will, though. I'll always try to do some kind of cycling if I can.

    Hot weather cycling

    I'll ride in the heat and humidity. I've ridden in 43-C (110-f) heat index. It was hot and I was riding slow, but I was able to do it. I don't do super long rides when it's that hot, but I will get out in it.

    Riding to a cafe or coffee shop

    I try to drink a lot of water. I should probably drink more than what I do drink, though. However, when cycling, you tend to just get in the zone and start riding forgetting you need to hydrate better.

    Riding to a cafe or coffee shop

    I like coffee but if I drink a lot of it when I'm riding, I'll have to use the bathroom a lot - both types LOL

    Gravel Do you just go searching for routes?

    Do you find it safer to ride in rural areas where your parents are, versus in the city?

    Should We Ban Phones at the Dinner Table?

    And it seems to be the case all over the world, too.
