There is a great article that shows by default many men refer to women as Ms or Mrs instead of their title like Dr. Prof. President etc... |
01:27
🔗
|
omf_ |
And also the reverse happens as well. Men will refer to female colleagues by last name instead of first name like with male colleagues to appear professional |
01:27

|
omf_ |
because god forbid you call a woman by her first name |

I want offroad bike anyway, simply bigger tires for me |
11:33
🔗
|
omf_ |
I almost always ride a mountain bike when commuting around the city. It can handle pot holes, curbs and all the junk better than a road bike. If the roads were better maintained I might switch |
11:35
🔗
|
SmileyG |
yeah |
11:36
🔗
|
SmileyG |
Thats my thinking, I'm not exactly the most experienced rider either. Just need to figure out how to maintain it properly etc too |
11:36
🔗
|
omf_ |
#1 rule for bike maintenance is always make sure your tires have good pressure |
11:37
🔗
|
SmileyG |
yeah |
11:37
🔗
|
omf_ |
People tend to not pay enough attention to that, you see car owners are the same way |

The US bicycle support sucks |
11:43
🔗
|
omf_ |
There is a huge difference between riding in a top 15 city versus everything else |
11:44
🔗
|
omf_ |
For example |
11:44
🔗
|
omf_ |
many US city ratings include future plans |
11:44
🔗
|
omf_ |
whereas on the world stage many great bicycle cities never count their future plans |
11:46
🔗
|
omf_ |
A simple way to visualize this is to look at the bicycle layer for a city using google maps or OSM |
11:47
🔗
|
SmileyG |
shame I'm in the UK :D |
11:47
🔗
|
SmileyG |
and pffft, I'll ride anywhere, hense wanting mountain bike rather than road. |
11:47

Riding a bike is so much more fun with proper tire pressure |
12:02
🔗
|
ersi |
It's exhausting and somewhat tedious with the wrong pressure |
12:03
🔗
|
ersi |
Which reminds me that I should pump my tires |
12:03
🔗
|
omf_ |
ersi, how is the cycling in your city? |
12:04
🔗
|
ersi |
It's a "bike city" - a lot of students. It's also very flat :) |
12:04
🔗
|
ersi |
I'd say it's quite good, for what I know at least. |
12:05
🔗
|
ersi |
Then again, there's roughly 200k citizens in my city.. so it's pretty small, you can manage to go anywhere on bike really |

Oh, about 140k citizens. the 200k+ figure is for the whole county |
12:08
🔗
|
omf_ |
yeah the bicycle layer for that city looks excellent |
12:09
🔗
|
ersi |
I got many colleagues in Stockholm that bike as well |
12:09

|
ersi |
most with road bikes |
12:15

|
omf_ |
How do road bicycle peeps deal with snow? My mountain bike has got deep knobby tires to handle it |
12:15
🔗
|
omf_ |
I understand the physics of slicks working in the rain but snow and ice are a different story |
12:17
🔗
|
SmileyG |
i think they don't ride!? :D |
12:17
🔗
|
SmileyG |
you can get spiked tires also. |

I think most people put away their bikes, when winter comes around. |
12:19
🔗
|
ersi |
I bike all around the year, mainly because I bike such short distances |
12:19
🔗
|
SmileyG |
I think icould walk to work in 30-40 min |
12:19
🔗
|
SmileyG |
SO biking should take around 20. |
12:19
🔗
|
SmileyG |
I can walk 20min to the train station, then 15min the other side, thats my last option |
12:19
🔗
|
ersi |
I think it's about 1.8 "miles" single journey - which frankly, is not much |
12:20
🔗
|
ersi |
But in -20C, it's pretty fucking long. |
12:20
🔗
|
ersi |
(I've learned my lesson. No more biking in -20C weather) |
12:22
🔗
|
omf_ |
Do people own more than one bicycle? I have two fully working ones and most of my bicycle friends only have 1 |
12:24
🔗
|
ersi |
Hehe, I/we do :D At one time we had like 6 bikes on 2 people - where only I rode |
12:24
🔗
|
ersi |
One was mine, one was my gf's and the others came from our summer house (ie. collected family bikes through the ages) |

I <3 off road riding, I will take having just a mountain bike over having just a road bicycle |
12:30

omf_ |
I like having both since there is a finished 12 mile flat straight trail for high speed road bicycling |

plus disc brakes |

I don't think most people own multiple bikes here though |
12:32

|
omf_ |
People see you as "hardcore" when you have 2+ bikes |
12:32
🔗
|
omf_ |
For me I think having 3 total would be the best fit |
12:33
🔗
|
SmileyG |
well for me, it'll mostly be for getting to work |
12:33
🔗
|
SmileyG |
of course I'll use it in other ways I expect |

I think most people will see you as hard core if you have a road bike :) |
