Go pro's are retarded. Big square brick and ugly. Better to buy a bullet cam and attach to the side of the helmet

>How risky is this?
Very. If you don't have your computer plugged into a properly grounded outlet while using Photoshop, you could cause damage to your computer, start a fire, or even electrocute yourself.
Planes, trains, and buses are boring, let's talk about riding bikes instead!

Time for a new thread, last one is past bump limit.
I'm a fat fuck and I came into possession of an old Giant OCR that I would like to ride for exercise. The stock saddle hurts I can't use it for more than 5-10 minutes. Is there a standard recommendation for a fat newbie seat?
Same guy who just bought a pair of Schwalbe marathon plus from the previous thread.
Holy fucking shit, it's absolutely impossible to fit those tires. I broke my nails and worked my fingers until they bled, used the techniques shown on those youtube videos and still no results.
Compared to that, fitting a regular tire is a joke.
I gave up, I think I'm going to bring my wheels to my local bike shop, this shit is impssible.

buy a saddle which supports your sitbones and gets out of the way otherwise. the saddle height and setback needs to be adjusted appropriately such that it acts as a 'perch' or a platform, allowing you to carry a significant amount of weight on the pedals. take into account your range of motion/flexibility/functional bike posture, &c.
pay for a good bike fit

How does this make you feel?
>>921195
Unhappy. Those cagers haven't been turned into coral reefs yet, and that is terrible.
>>921196
is there a huge blind corner ahead or can they just not pass over the double line because of the cops?
>>921195
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
How's it male you feel, feelmaster?

What is /n/'s obsession with this image? If you want other images of freds just check the thread where people post pictures of themselves.

Lance Armstrong, bad boy of Cycling, roided more than Brock Lesnar, got away with it, admitted to it, tweeted pics of jerseys

While laughing at the Biking plebeians, let talk about how great Private Jets are. My personal favorite are Cessna Citation Xs and sometimes even Boeing 757s.
>post your Private jets, laugh at Bike plebeians.
>>893034
Where did anyone imply otherwise? Are you implying people think planes are automobiles? The only /n/ thing that is questionable is busses.
Private jet. Here ya go.
Acela thread?
Man, I wish that the NEC had gotten it's overhaul, and the South-East High-Speed corridor had been built.
Say what you will about Acelas and their stats, but I think they're a fucking sexy looking train set. Would have loved to see them running between Atlanta and Boston.
Literally why
>>910012
Because we're fucking autists who like choo choo trains.
Since owning a car is expensive in Scandinavia, this is what the Vikings are driving now.

So it's an electric assist velomobile with a canopy.
And it's tall as fugg. I feel that kind of defeats the purpose of velos being aero?
Scandis don't ride bikes, they ride muslim dick
>>919569
This one isn´t meant to be aero. It´s meant to be practical I think. 25 km/h max. 4 wheels for good grip in winter. Shielding against the elements. High enough to be seen by everyone.
