Bicycles are for children and niggers; I'm neither of those.

Local weather is horrible for cycling
Most of my places I have to go would involve distances not practical on a bike, and potentially hauling large amounts of stuff.
I don’t want to use a road to cycle since I’ll either die or just waste a lane

Cycling is for inner city folk who don’t live in the ghetto and suburban twinks who use it as an excuse to stimulate their asshole

if you get a seat made out of concrete and dried up cum there is a chance of the pressure and bumping of it against ur crotch leaving u infertile

Sitting on my ass doing nothing doesn’t transport me to work

Craigslist, ask /bbg/ on /n/ for help.

Chains are cheap and easy to replace, just look how many sprockets you have on the rear and look for a chain that matches that number.
7 speed chains are like 10$ when you get a genuine Shimano one.
Get a 20" folding bike, these things are decently cheap, ride ok and fit on a shelf.
>slow, limited range and weather for transport
In the city it is often faster than driving, the range depends on your fitness and there are good clothes for bad conditions.
>>poor exercise as it’s harder to work up a sweat than other forms of cardio
Common issue in new riders, they don`t go hard enough and have a low cadence.
Try spinning 90-100 rpm at 20 mph and you will start to sweat.
>>not translatable to other forms of fitness
It translates to squats and all other endurance sports.
>>might damage pudendal nerves and lead to prostate and erection issues
Only when your bike fit is poorly and you have a saddle without the cutout.
>>blocks up the fucking roads like a douchebag
Cars tend to do that more than cyclists, I have yet to see a traffic jam consisting of bicycles.
>>you look gay doing it
You could say the same thing about bodybuilding and competitive weight lifting.
Road cycling is pretty much only white men.
Country roads are great for cycling, amateurs often ride 50-100 miles.
Saddles have cutouts these days to prevent exactly that.

Listen, I love cycling and the idea behind it but:

1. many cities are not setup for them. Many areas of the city require that I cycle on the road (because apparently me going 15km/h on a wide sidewalk is more dangerous for others walking at 3km/h compared to me on the road with cars going three times as fast)

2. bike locks are only deterrents, if somebody wants your bike they'll take it

I'd bike probably 700x more if there was infrastructure built for them; I'm not sharing the fucking roads with rednecks in 4000lb steel machines.

I do it every so often, but not for commuting.

>coping this hard

It’s not good transport that’s why we have fucking cars. And it is gay, it’s for little kids and and women. Chicks dig my Mercedes; no one ever got laid from a bike. Pic very much related

And it’s not good exercise either, 20 minutes on a bike will never burn as many calories as 2 minutes running or swimming, and if you are doing it hard enough youre going too fast to be safe riding on a street.

It’s not applicable for functional strength either, its not as good for your cardio as running or swimming and it’s not useful in life. You’re never gonna have to bike for your life, and there’s a reason navy seals never ride bikes for training.

Also the erection and prostate thing is real it’s common and well documented even in pro bicyclists.

You're more likely to die riding your bike a mile than you are driving drunk the same distance in America.

>cars
Inefficient as fuck, get stuck all the time.
>20 minutes on a bike will never burn as many calories as 2 minutes running or swimming
On my bike my specific burn rate is 22 kcal per kg per hour at sweetspot.
For 20 minutes I can bump that up to about 30 kcal/kg/hour, or 10 kcal/kg in that timeframe.
I want to see how you burn 10 kcal for every kg of bodyweight in 2 minutes, at 70 kg that would be 700 kcal.
>its not as good for your cardio as running or swimming
Is that why ex pro cyclists dominate triathlon?
>Also the erection and prostate thing is real it’s common and well documented even in pro bicyclists.
It was untill they redesigned saddles.
Nowerdays you need to seriously fuck up your bikefit to get issues.

I personally know a handful of people who have had permanent life-changing negative results from cycling.

No thanks

I enjoy driving too much

Tell that to Walter Röhrl...
>captcha: bicycles

>In the city it is often faster than driving
I work 12-18, by the time I get out there's barely any traffic.

>Common issue in new riders, they don`t go hard enough and have a low cadence.
Rope jumping is better for that.

>It translates to squats and all other endurance sports.
Hahahaha, no. Would like to see your average cyclist do heavy squats.
Inb4 - some cherrypicked steroid abuser who happens to be good at cycling.

>Cars tend to do that more than cyclists, I have yet to see a traffic jam consisting of bicycles
Roads are NOT for bikes.
If I could smash in the head of every cunt that doesn't ride on the pavement and slows down traffic, I'd be the happiest man in the world.

>You could say the same thing about bodybuilding and competitive weight lifting.
Bodybuilding is just an ego competition.
Weightlifting is manly and requires great athleticism.
Cycling is just gay as fuck.

>I work 12-18, by the time I get out there's barely any traffic.
Unusual.
>Rope jumping is better for that.
Kek, nobody burns over 5000 kcal/day by rope jumping.
>Would like to see your average cyclist do heavy squats.
Sprinters are pretty good in squats, especialy track sprinters.
>Inb4 - some cherrypicked steroid abuser who happens to be good at cycling.
ALL olympic level track sprinters have huge quads and get checked for doping quite a lot.

>Roads are NOT for bikes.
Roads are for bike, motorcycles, cars and all other street legal vehicles.

butthurt
>Bodybuilding is just an ego competition.
>Weightlifting is manly and requires great athleticism.
>Cycling is just gay as fuck.
The training and mental strength required to rech any significant level in cycling is way higher than in bodybuilding.

>bike through city
>get hit by uninsured towel head woman driver
>die

I live in a big city and biking isn’t possible or safe here.

you mean i'll die? i should take up biking

I’m making more money and am buying a peloton bike since the reason I don’t go to the gym as much is because it’s always packed. Anyone have any experience with it?

Can you fuck off
