Not only will this improve your stability, but it will also keep you from pulling a Superman should you manage to go down anyway."<br />WTF? What bike expert other than you and "self-proclaimed guru" Grant Petersen would make this claim? I hate to break this to you O'Mighty Snob, but putting more of the rider's weight on the rear wheel by moving the handlebars higher up and farther back simply does NOT improve stability.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-90411430785087797912019-01-10T01:50:07.335-05:002019-01-10T01:50:07.335-05:00Sure, a 90-year-old guy “should be able to take wh...Sure, a 90-year-old guy “should be able to take whatever the fuck” he wants. I agree. He just shouldn’t do it and then enter a race against guys who didn't.

If you stay away from recreational road cyclists, you'll probably have no problems. This is not to say that all or even most recreational road cyclists are jerks, just that the jerks I've met have been of the Velominati/Mean Girls type who judge you because your spoke nipples don't match your socks or whatever their problem is. This is, of course, a very, very small minority as I find most cyclists are desperately eager/exited to find another person who gives a shit. Messengers can be unfriendly, but it usually has more to do with them disliking squares than bikes. I think most people over the age of 18 are injured to crusty punk judgement. janine'snoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-20546743128978787492019-01-09T14:47:16.472-05:002019-01-09T14:47:16.472-05:00I have nothing of substance to add.Except if I mak...I have nothing of substance to add.Except if I make it close to 90,I'm doing whatever drug makes me feel like I'm not 90.
