I donated $250.00 in support of Annual Fund 2023! https://t.co/tCNaLf7u0R

@levifishman Nice action shot off the bat!

@nntaleb Saddle height is important if your friend is still worried about knee pain. A good fitter will see instantly if it’s too low (bad for knees) or too high (bad for Achilles). The general tendency is to set the saddle too low, which is also inefficient.

[Evan O'Neil @evanoneil]

@nntaleb Your friend doesn’t have to pay for a super fancy fitting. A good one gets you in the ballpark, then *always* listen to your body and adjust. An honorable fitter should help you with any follow up. It’s good to have outside perspective since you can’t see yourself on the bike.

[Evan O'Neil @evanoneil]

@nntaleb Any cleat properly adjusted should be fine. Angle is important. My knees are happier with feet slightly turned out. Float degree definitely adds comfort, margin for error. @crankbrothers pedals are great. With them or SPD you use mountain/gravel shoes and still walk around ok.

@davidjmadden Wise. Congrats.

@cyclingreporter You need to prompt it to emulate the style of haiku masters, otherwise by sheer probability the result will sound like something a fourth grader wrote.

[Evan O'Neil @evanoneil]

@nntaleb Never red in the front. It violates convention and thus may cause other problems. Your friend should be extra vigilant around luxury cars. Some research has shown those drivers are less conscientious. He could also consider a portable speaker if lights are inadequate.

@nntaleb @selleanatomica Another advantage: You can fit a lock or cable through the cutout for extra security / deterrent.

[Evan O'Neil @evanoneil]

@nntaleb Selle Anatomica! Nice leather like Brooks, super comfortable, zero break-in period, adjustable firmness, cutout area, specific models for rider weight, good return policy, and usually cheaper prices on blemished / returned / B stock. @selleanatomica https://t.co/fTT5M5EfpC

@JessieSingerNYC Trust your nose.

@astoks @davidjmadden A giant sculpture of the classic mesh trash can is a great idea.

@davidjmadden If you’re going to post a photo of my house you’re pretty much obligated to invite yourself over ;)

@cyclingreporter I voted yes but it also depends. I tip my old school guy in Harlem at a mom and pop bike shop, but tend not to at the big name brand store near me in Queens. The Harlem guy would always find creative ways to solve something on my old bikes, digging rare parts from deep drawers.

@cyclingreporter Sensible choice when wearing white!

@bikehugger @RitaJKing What does bone signify?
