I have a carbon bike. I can pick it up with just one hand with no effort. Probably a couple of fingers if I tried. It has the ability to go really fast. If there is a cross-wind I can feel it give a bit under me. I feel like it's going to blow out from under me.
I have clip-less shoes that physically attach me to said bike. If I'm not moving fast enough I have a hard time clipping out of the pedals when I'm trying to stop.
I can't find my bike helmet. I wear my daughters ill fitted one instead.
Our bike paths have been swept, but still remain littered with branches, sticks, stones and glass not to mention slick sand and damp leaves.
I've seen bears, deer, chipmunks that dart out in front of bikes and crazy people on the bike path I regularily travel.
Just wondering......think I might have a death wish?
P.S. HI GRANDMA C! YOU WERE RIGHT! IT'S GOING UP TO 15 TODAY AND 20 TOMORROW! YIPEEE!

Are you kidding? As in 20 degrees? Unbelievable!
Do you love biking? It's very good exercise, but it sounds like you have to keep you eyes open every second. Don't kill any chipmunks!
I admire you for doing this. I always figure some disaster would await me if I did this.
Spring is here also, but alas they say we may get the "S" word next week, hopefully it is rain. I'm glad the weather is better. Happy bike riding
I had a head-on collision with a guy riding on the wrong side of the bike lane. I broke my finger. He gave me a fake phone number and never paid for my bike, which was destroyed.
I don't think your carbon fiber bike is going to blow out from under you.
20 degrees celsius.
