Woke up with a headache, I suspect it is from my wife’s constant snoring and tossing and turning, as I felt the same yesterday.
Oh sure, blame it on your wife and not your own overwhelming feelings of existential dread. Just like a white cis male to not be accountable for their own feelings.

All I've seen around here are e-bikes. E-bikes everywhere...
urge to kill rising?

also, my "road" bike is a nashbar special frame/fork wheels, with mtb brakes and derailleur. accepts big tires so i get some microknobbies for some of the mixed surface rides around here and when i visit my parents.

Mine is a CX from BeyondBikes with upgraded cranks and road tires for commuting. :rofl:

It still has flat pedals on it because I don't have any fancy shoes.

So i shouldn't divulge that if I sell my DH bike I'll likely fill the void with a grvl bike?

my belt drive acoustic commuter was a gravel bike before it was cool, what with 47 mm tires and all

and then I only ride it on paved surfaces anyway. very occasionally.

I'm starting to think it'll be time for another dh bike in a couple years. Suckers.
Wife is my riding partner and if her riding is curtailed by the recent arthritis diagnosis in her thumb, DH is first to get cut.
