And I’m talking about the ones that are dripped up like they’re racing Lance Armstrong, they’re not gonna slow down for most people and they don’t understand there’s even speed limits on bike paths.
Hello all! Provided this is allowed, I'd like to share a platform I've been building to help cyclists find teams, clubs, and group rides: Spoke&Circle (https://spokeandcircle.com) Frankly... looking for a specialized team, club, or group in Colorado kind of sucks right now. For those riders who are not on social media, are just entering the hobby, or are looking for a more competitive landscape, finding the right team or group can be pretty difficult. If you don't know the right people or know the right search terms, you end up in a lot of dead ends. I'm hoping that this platform can help end that, but I'm not ready for a full on launch yet - consider this a soft-launch. I'd like some people to poke around and let me know how the site works for them, what improvements should be made, how things work, etc.
The goal, eventually, is to partner with shops to help provide new riders, experienced cyclists, and everyone in between, the resources to find their right group to ride with.
Thank you!
P.S. I've been manually entering a lot of the teams/clubs I've found, so the list is very small still, but growing! If you have a team or club you'd like to submit, please do!
I recently attended a show at the Paramount and, though we took a Lyft for reasons, I was a little bit sad that we didn’t ride our e-bikes. Once we got there, though, I noticed that bike parking really isn’t much of a thing around there! I also thought about the battery. Had I found a secure place to lock my bike, not a lot of folks are likely to be too keen on letTing me carry my battery around, and I’m not leaving it attached!
I’m not new to cycling but I am new to the e-bike world. The bike itself opens up lots of possibilities but the idea of having my stuff stolen or fucked with is a strong dissuader.
I know that every mission requires its own strategy which means changing out accessories from ride to ride and such, so I think my question is really more of the “What do I do if I want to ride my e-bike to a show or event downtown?” What have been your experiences hauling your batteries and other accessories into various venues and establishments? Any interesting stories or incidents to share?
RTD and Lyft are likely to remain my go to downtown commute options, especially when I’m with somebody, but the bike is a great alternative, especially for me, as I don’t drive.
I havent had a bike since i was a kid but was given an old bike to use for exercise i was told i would need to fix it up first and replace some stuff but dont know how and dont really have income either does anyone know of any non-profit places that can help/teach me its ok if i need to volunteer every once in a while to learn how to repair and stuff
