Oh yes, replacement set as I converted early last year. My trainer flats are being retired. Now that I mention it, so is the bike. It will be re-tired when I put the pedals on. Have some fresh tread to install as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinBike Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 The last song I hear before I get out of my car is the the soundtrack that rattles around my head all day on the ride. Last week I had Iggy Pop's "Lust for life" hit 1 minute from the trailhead. Score! But sometimes it is a slow song or something I don't like. That can create a crappy ride. My guilty confession is that I have a USB memory key plugged into the car and I can use to do a last minute save to my internal soundtrack. But it is K-pop. Somehow it always seems to be Hyuna's "Bubble Pop." Can't understand 99% of the words, but by god I'll learn Korean one of these days. It's the perfect palate cleanser for the earworm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, it's probably the most suitable soundtrack for my ride/life anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notyal Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Kid songs killed me. I can't tell you how many times perfectly good rides were ruined by some cartoon's theme song on repeat in my head. I don't wear headphones on every ride, but I do carry them just in case now. I had a single speed that I used to tow the kids around in a trailer. The eccentric bottom bracket creaked to the exact rhythm of "Down By the Bay." 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turn away and slam the door. ❄️ 🎶 Can't tell you how many veloway laps I did with that damn song stuck in my head. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A buddy of mine used to keep a shorcut on his laptop and when the shit hit the fan or someone did something real stupid he would click on that and play it. Now it is a mental thing for me and so stupid actions trigger circus music in my head. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gotdurt Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I rode muddy, sloppy, splashy trails today. In full disclosure though, I rode them with the principle trail builder, so I guess I shouldn't feel too guilty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bamwa Posted January 7, 2019 Author Share Posted January 7, 2019 I saw a car with muddy bikes on the back so I ran them off the road then tossed them in town lake to help clean them off. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
