Alex - with every post I read, I find you stuck in a vicious cycle of having to prove yourself. You don't have to. You're competent and know your way around a bike. I for one appreciate your knowledge and I don't think anyone faults you for lack of it. At least, not here from what I've seen. I do ...

Tis true what HYPERR stated.

Ever try buying a trailer tire? For the most part, they're bias ply and are much smaller in size, but cost as much as a 16-17 inch car tire. I bought a 13 incher budget tire made in China and it cost me $85. Good Years or Firestone trailer tire cost even more for the ...

Man, you guys are good. Couldn't say it better.

Suck it up and focus on your studies. The good stuff (ie bike) will fall into place once you've done what's immediately in front of you. You should be thankful that you have a van available to you. I had to either 10-speed it or took a bus while at ...
