  • Yes, that's right. I guess you are not surprised

  • I cannot understand what bonfire is about: another microblogging software?

  • That's exactly what bicycle specific ponchos are meant to do!

  • Cap

    The face, not the hair. I still need to see while riding😅

  • Be ready to be horrified: I was tired of the dirt on the chain, collected by the standard chain oil, so I thought about waxing. I looked at products available and nothing convinced me: either remove the chain and submerge it in melted wax or use some liquid product,whose quality was questionable.

    I saw that people was using candle wax, and a random guy rubbing the candle on the chain and then melting it with a lighter (those where you can direct the flame). So I did exacly that with an unscented ikea candle I had a bunch of. I did that first time in May, and then again in September. I took some light rain, and usually quickly dried with a cloth when home. I don't see signs of rust, and the noise is at normal level. I'm pretty happy, but I'm aware I could destroy my chain with it, so I'm taling the risk. Even after the ride in the picture on unpaved road with rain, the chain looked "clean" and not much was left on te cleaning cloth. The same ride with oil would have collected an unthinkable quantity of dirt.

  • Yes indeed. This particular road is unpaved anyway, so I already ride slow enough that leaves are not a problem.

    But in other areas they are really dangerous!

  • Good point, I also use overshoes if I think the rain is too heavy.

    I keep a cloth in the garage at home, I do a quick chain drying with it. Also I use wax on the chain, so it doesn't collect a lot of dirt. Still, when used in rain it need more maintenance, as you said

  • If I think I need them, I carry a pair of overshoes too. I never got wet up to the knee this way, and they are still quick to wear

  • Really cool!

    How difficult is it to create acistom map theme for mapcomplete?

  • I'm not canadian either, but they are all valid high-quality channels, whose content is valid everywhere

  • Bicycles are dangerous, they say

  • Lol, corrected, thanks

  • Nice idea. An alternative would be to have user classes on traditional severs:

    • a viewer user that cannot upload videos, bilut can watch, subscribe, comment etc
    • a "creator" user that admins can limit that can also upload video content
  • Higher speed limit?

    🤣 took me a few seconds, but made me smile
