Q6. I keep wearing holes in my pants from riding.

How do you prevent pant damage like this? How do you repair it? I'd like to still be able to wear jeans and ride.

Do you suffer any other unconventional clothing damage from riding?

@ascentale

A6. I used to wear jeans all the time. Then bicycling ripped them up in, uh, unexpected places. I switched to pants designed for fishing because they dry fast, and found they don't get holes like the blue jeans did. Shorts don't seem to have the blue jean problem either.

32 Kilometers or more I wear bicycle shorts.

Q1. Where are you posting from today? I've seen so many more people riding around recently. It may be because of warm weather, or because of Bike Month. What local cycling trends have you seen?

@skinnylatte @ascentale

I'm guessing because they're cheaper department store bicycles and not as worrisome if they get stolen.

Hope no one was hurt an it's not too hard or expensive to fix.

Is this what y'all think living with me is like?!

A sadly now gone friend had this response

"They just need to tighten up on their defense."

And found he wouldn't have to say another word as the sports fans would talk at length.

In my circles it was "Do you think the Hulk could beat Superman in a no flight fight?"

Kinda insane I made it on my own to the hospital, emergency services but they turned me down and I had to call an ambulance from the parking place 🤨

@stux

Glad your doing better. Not happy that you had to deal with what seems like standard procedure for American hospitals.

How much alone time vs socializing do you need?

For me there are a few people who are usually equalizing, and I can just be around them, so I won't count that. But generally, I find about 3 times a week, I'm game for socializing. A day in between to rest is usually nice, but the larger the gathering or if we go somewhere particularly noisy or I'm meeting new people that involves more effort, and my social battery empties sooner. I'm very curious where everyone else falls on this!

@RickiTarr

About 2 weeks. I don't necessarily want to hang with anyone or get together, but I require people around me. Just going to the grocery store is enough for that for me.

Pff.. I just got cut off on my bike by this triple A hole with his massive window blinded SUV on the bike lane while he was holding his phone making a call

I was signing and yelling he should put his phone down and open his eyes, didn't take much of his car would have enjoyed the frame of my bike

Seemed like a "though businessman" or perhaps even a diplomat with foreign licence who did like he "owned the place" but not when I'm around

I don't care for your status, act like a human or ...

Probably an American. And I post that as an American. is a serious problem here.

@stux @islekcaganmert @GottaLaff

A lot of America is like that, too. Especially mid-size cities full of dangerous "stroads" that look the same from state to state.

Rural is green grass, brown grass, cows and/or horses or corn or wheat for miles. Or trees that look so similar you feel like you must be going in circles.

Sometimes the way people phrase things is so telling. For instance, telling women they should be "taking care of" their husband and children. Another adult doesn't need taken care of like a child, what you want is for women to be a Sex Mom.

@RickiTarr

Stifler's mom from "American Pie" movie is the only Sex Mom because she's fictional.
