Leah,
What a fun, well-told story. Back in my Lycra days I always felt odd
walking into a coffee shop or convenience store with the tight form-fitting
kit and tapping with each step. The Just Ride philosophy is really
liberating and makes riding fun again.

Yes, there is this prescribed notion you have to wear one or the other. I
wear from road riding clothes where it makes sense to me (lighter helmet,
sunglasses, gloves, bright colored windbreakers/rain jacket), and wear
"comfy" clothes where it makes sense (wool tee shirts, wool pants,

It may not have been a bike theft but rather an intervention. Fun story and I
hope that your friend seeks your advice when spending her insurance money.
That may make for a happy ending after all.

Hi Bill,
I read your above thread and your initial ride report. I saw that you found
the Roadini to be fast and stable. I am curious how it compares to your BMC
in more specific ways which I attribute to "Sportiness" if you have found
any to be discernible.
With stouter tubing, is the Roadini
"How!" in the old, stereotyped Indian greeting.
Patrick Moore, who is old enough to remember watching b&w cowboy and Indian
movies at friends' houses (and who is trying to decide right at this moment
between going for a ride on 559 X 28 mm tires or 700C X 61 mm tires ...)

Great story Leah,
One thing you might tell your friend is that there is a best bike for the
task at hand. Don't ride a race bike unless you are racing or need to race
at your peak to keep up with the people you want to ride with. Get another
bike that is comfortable, suitable to carry things on
Austin asked for more nuanced comparisons than I have the vernacular to
describe. So my short answer is that I have not found any discernible
differences in 'Sportiness'.
With stouter tubing, is the Roadini less flexible than the BMC? I don't
know that the Leo has stouter tubing. If it does

Fun story. Thanks for sharing.
One could perhaps draw a parallel between the choice in type of bike and
type of car. Few of us drive a Boxster or a 911 on a daily basis or to the
grocery store, and few of us must be in a 4x4 with a winch for the commute.
So, the family sedan or wagon (or nowad

The goal of keto diet is for your body to deplete all glucose stores in
your body for ketogenesis. Your body will naturally look for an alternative
energy source, proteins being the next easiest source of energy. However,

Sorry, I'm not on a keto diet, so I don't have an answer to your second

maybe it's just me or my computer, but it seems to me the photos or the

Thanks for the reply, Bill. I appreciate the time you took and, despite
your claims to not having the vocabulary to reply, your comments were much
more helpful than you might think. I now have a clear preference on which
