Hello there #BikeTooters! This week I am guest-hosting #BikeNite, Friday at 4 Pacific time. #BikeNite is a fun Q&A type discussion on Mastodon with #Bikes as the theme. This is my call for suggested questions to include in our discussion. If you have a question you’d like me to include, just reply and I’ll get those on my list.
Victory. 203 miles completed. Day 2 was less harsh than day 1 but still no stroll in the park. #BikeTooters
@cryptidhunter just use hashtags like #cycling and #biketooter #biketooters

Any #biketooters experience with Contec dynamo hubs? How do they compare to Shutter Precision or SON?

Hey #fedibikers, #biketooters, #velophants and other fediverse #cycling fans!
Can you tell me if the #Ceramicspeed #UFODrip #wax #lube is really that bad at making the #chain #quiet?
I apply it as shown in the tutorial video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1Ag554RkZg
After 30 km, I can already hear some noise and after another 30 it's almost as loud as a completely dry chain. Was I scammed and somehow bought a counterfeit lube, or is UFO Drip just overpriced crap?

I went another bike ride today and I visited some bridges down in the Wabash river bottoms. One of the bridges used by a train another by vechicles

Hey #biketooter #bikes #cycling #biking #biketooters!
I have a fun conversation to (re)start. What do we estimate the fuel economy of bicycles and eBikes to be? I've heard 290 mpge for light duty cycling here. https://dothemath.ucsd.edu/2011/11/mpg-of-a-human/
I wonder if the most efficient transport would combine biking for short distances (up to 10 miles, but probably up to 25 miles wouldn't need more eating) and electric buses/trains for long distances.

If anything, I learned that doing a ride this long requires plenty of fueling. 75 miles total.

Hey #BikeTooters I need some cool bike stickers, hit me up with places where I can order them from! 🙏
Just a microcosm of how civil and special mastodon is, the car tooters and the #biketooters get along. I follow bike and urbanists and boost them. My fellow car users star the posts. I post about car and bike tooters reply. Not only wouldn’t this happen on twitter it wouldn’t happen in real life.
Make no mistake it’s not just because the platform is better designed. It’s because the folks who show up for people powered platforms build amazing communities. #WeirdCarMastodon

Tempting! Newly designed “clip-and-go” motor that electrically drives the rear wheel of nearly any bike with disc brakes.
#biketooters: My kids bike got a 7 speed casette and the shifter is broken (selects maybe 3 or 4 gears). Can I use just any 7 speed shifter? Should I stick with grip shift or change to levers for a 8+ old kid? #bicycles #kids #mobility

Has to be if you haven't got a bathtub to clean your #bike in 😂.
