Cycling, (circumlunar), 08/24/2018
------------------------------------------------------------
I am a beginner cyclist. Not because I've never ridden a
bike, nor because I intend on applying the nomenclature of
"cyclist" to myself in any official way... I'm a beginner
cyclist because I just bought a bike that I'm excited about,
and because I want to ride it, and because it's been a
couple decades since I've ridden regularly.
The bike is a Citizen Tokyo[1] with airless tires. It's an
inexpensive folding bike from a small company, that looked
nicer to me (and had more options) than the cheap Schwinn
folding bikes on Amazon. Maybe it's not any better, I don't
know, but it looked nice and old cost a little more. There
were some higher-priced brands that I'm sure would have been
great too, but I'm not ready for that.
Circumlunar has a shell bbs, and on it there is a cycling
board where discussions are starting. I figured my phlog
here would be as good a place as any for me to write down
any thoughts I might have on the matter. If you're not on
circumlunar, seek asylum there immediately[2] and join the
discussion. Or, just post your thoughts on gopher, and we'll
all find them.
