I think you can helpfully advise on technique and equipment; cycling isn't a thing you are born doing. I do agree there's a limit to this approach, and I'm especially sensitive to it on a largely male-dominated forum where it can be too easy to slip into sexist notions of "telling the little lady how it's done."
I've given Leah plenty of advice - usually because she asked - as a person who's been riding and wrenching for decades and can possibly help her skip a few mistakes I've made. But no, I can't tell her how to ride and would not even try to speak that way. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
