JudyJudyJudy Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 When the Titanic sank, it carried millionaire John Jacob Astor IV. The money in his bank account was enough to build 30 Titanics. However, faced with mortal danger, he chose what he deemed morally right and gave up his spot in a lifeboat to save two frightened children. Millionaire Isidor Straus, co-owner of the largest American chain of department stores, "Macy's," who was also on the Titanic, said: "I will never enter a lifeboat before other men." His wife, Ida Straus, also refused to board the lifeboat, giving her spot to her newly appointed maid, Ellen Bird. She decided to spend her last moments of life with her husband. These wealthy individuals preferred to part with their wealth, and even their lives, rather than compromise their moral principles. Their choice in favor of moral values highlighted the brilliance of human civilization and human nature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also means I can hand my old one into bike station so they can recycle (pun intended) to sell it on to someone that can’t afford a new bike. Show and tell, please.

I like a cyclocross bike but some people find the handling a bit twitchy as they are short wheelbase and high bottom bracket compared to a gravel bike. So you can go faster than a gravel bike over tight terrain but it needs more commitment. Lighter though unless you’re spending big bucks on carbon gravel bikes. Edit. Riding clipless pedals helps as well. I’ve got them on all my bikes including MTBs, I can’t be doing with flats, too many scars on my shins as it is from them when I was a kid.

I've got SPDs on my Giant roadie, but some very gnarly flats on my MTB & E-Hybrid, I just much prefer the looser feel off-road as I sometimes go up mud and slippy trails and have moments of, ahem, zero momentum... Nothing beats a nice bit of single-track or good tarmac (the latter being a fecking rarity these days!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’d be complaining if they’d just silently came up behind you and passed with no warning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
