minus-squareRob Bos@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·6 days agoI can throw a rock and hit Vancouver! Mind I’d have to walk a few minutes first. Even with rolling stops, my tracking usually puts me around 20, 25 if I hustle a bit.
minus-squareRob Bos@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-22 days agoThe kind you pump air into? Less nobbly than mountain bike tires, not as thin as road bike tires. The type of tire is the bike shop’s problem.

minus-squareRob Bos@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 day agoI guess. Why do I want to go faster?
minus-squareBCsven@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up1·19 hours ago? Amnesia maybe. Original comment I replied to was you said 30-35 on a bike was not possible and maybe on downhill, and that you averaged 20 km/h. 30 is easily a steady pace on smooth narrower tires. That’s how we got here LOL
