Shohei Ohtani just stopped to sign for Momoyo, a 100-year-old woman who survived the bombing of Nagasaki.

Bsky feeling like a rickety shack missing a couple walls these days

I'd go to Lowertown or Express if you want to support a shop this side of the river.

Express has a lot of new frames hanging up that I'm sure could be built up.

By "not steel" are you looking at CF or Aluminum?

Second hand market is your friend but may require patience to get something you really want.

Kona bikes generally are good value and there are both Al and Steel frames. Buying local would point you at a Wilde frame, but they are all steel or Ti.

Twin cities bike trading post on FB is active and helpful.

I think we enjoy this without any hubris

The pope discourse is choice mockery, this is energizing me

Wout and Tadej paired up at the end of Paris-Roubaix is a great Sunday morning watch

It's popular to say Nyt sucks, but where do we get real information these days? BBC? Al Jazeera? CBC?

Excuse me

I bet he'd lose a lot of abs challenges

They also got a stern talking to

I still gave a 5 star review.

That said, it's rude at best. I'm paying for a service (argue about how much that is worth, I'm not defending uber - if our country was serious I would be riding transit to the airport), and chatting on the phone while providing that service isn't great.
