For those who fondly recall 13~17 freewheels, there's a new 10~50 cassette!

50 teeth! Wow, I never thought I'd see the day when my 34 tooth biggest
cog was considered too small.

I'm getting a little out of date. I gotta catch up.

Ah, you give us a voucher to make fun of your dorky handlebar bag and
all the other stuff you bolted to your bike one more time. Keep up the good work.

You are not a true utility cyclist. Be quiet. You probably wear a
helmet, also known as a head-shackle.

I'm certainly not a true utility cyclist. Hauling gallons of milk or
crates of beer seems silly to me if you have a car on your driveway.


That's interesting. The U.S. currently has an enthusiastic industry and
publicity machine saying we should build Netherlands-style bike paths
everywhere.

Why? Because then people will stop driving their cars!

What has that to do with the fact that I prefer using my car for
groceries and not my bike. I only use my bike for non fun rides if it is more practical.

I think it’s the “fun” part that some apparently find objectionable.
