I'm seriously thinking about getting a custom steel touring bike built for me. I'm a really big guy and I ride a fair bit 4-5000 kms a year. Is this good idea, and is it worth the extra money?
I'm seriously thinking about getting a custom steel touring bike built for me. I'm a really big guy and I ride a fair bit 4-5000 kms a year. Is this good idea, and is it worth the extra money?
I would say that a pretty personal question. If you're big enough that you can't find a frame that fits you, then, by all means, get a custom. I would love to have a custom just for the idea that it was built specifically for me. I have a custom trumpet that will always seem like it plays better than anything else I have just because it was made just for me.
Saying you're a big guy doesn't mean a whole lot. I'm 6'4" and weigh about 200 lbs much of the time. I ride a smaller than biggest production size bike.
I've ridden with a couple of guys who are 6'6" and closer to 250 who also ride stock frames.
But none of that means much.
You could probably get a frame to fit you without resorting to a custom frame but if you've ridden much and know what you're looking for then by all means consider a custom frame.
Waterford - the best.
Rivendell - almost the best.
Bruce Gordon - VERY good touring bikes but he is opinionated as hell and if you don't agree with him he's very difficult to deal with.
Ed Litton - A very good frame builder with tons of experience but he only makes a limited number of frames each year and you have to hit him at just the right time.
Bob Jackson or Mercian are wonderful touring bike makers but if you are really big you probably don't want a standard size tubing bike which I believe is all they presently make.
There are others of course - Leonard Zinn is an expert large frame builder since he's REALLY TALL himself. Jobst Brandt has toured extensively on a bike with standard tubing and he's something like 6'7" or so tall though he's pretty thin. Still, he climbs like a bandit and decends like a skydiver with a failed chute without problems.
Thanks for the information. I'm not only large 6'5" and 300 pounds but I have very short legs and a long upper body (think Gorrilla). The problem I seem to have is that I can't buy a stock steel bike as they flex like noodles.
I'm really happy with my Riv, even though I could just as easily ride a lot of stock frames. There's something really nice about knowing that the bike was built for what you want to do and for your tastes and needs. If you ride a lot and have trouble getting a bike to fit, then a custom frame with tubing and geometry to suit your needs could be an excellent investment.Originally Posted by hoss10
ChecK out Co-Motion as they have designed a frame for heavy dudes.
check out the Rivendell sight about some of the top-tube/middle tube bikes they have built you guys like you

There are many custom frame builders and most have some experience building touring bikes. You might want to check to see if you've got a good builder in your area.
Bob Brown is another good name who does a lot of touring builds. And if you want a Rivendell without the middle man, you can always go directly to Curt Goodrich who also builds under his own name now.
You might also check with don walker. He's a frequent poster over in the fixed gear forum. He specializes in track bikes but is knowledgable about all types of bikes. He's not a lightweight himself, so he knows how to build a strong frame.
The ultimate custom touring bike is probably Sakkit, they are useful for inspiration if you cant handle the waiting list or cost.
Henry James have a list of custom builders.
Zinn is definately worth checking out for big bikes. He factors in large crank length if you want, something many large-frame designers omit.
Check out Co-Motion, they're now making a frame especially for big guys like you. I got a custom Co-Motion this spring, and after almost 5K miles, I can tell you it's worth every penny of the extra cost to have a bike that actually fits.
my 2 cents is to get a Waterford. It won't be bothered by your weight.
Great information guys. I'm up in the Great White North and there a few custom builders up here. Hugh Black at True North does really nice work and has built for people bigger then me. www.truenorthcycles.com I guess I'll bite the bullet and order one. Of course now I will have many more questions: such as 700 vs. 26 inch wheels, drops or flat bars etc.
Answers: 26 inch wheels (or maybe not since you're tall) & drop bars (for sure).Originally Posted by hoss10
I find it amusing that so many tourers are looking to go to 26" wheels while so many MTB riders are looking to go to 700C wheels.
There really is no questions at all about wheel sizes. For a big guy you REALLY have only 700c. With 26" wheels you have a very poor choice of tire sizes and types unless you're riding knobbies. With 700c you can get tires anywhere and in just about any configuration though I can say that you'd want to start out with Avocet Duro Plus which are 32 mm wide and can still be inflated to 90 psi.
26 vs 700c is still a moot point. In touring sizes, the difference in efficiency is hardly measurable.Originally Posted by cyclintom
26" is the modern choice for expedition tourists. You get more air for comfort, closer spokes for strength and worldwide availability of tyres (even if they are knobbly). Modern expedition tyres such as Schwalbe Marathon XR come in both sizes.
700c touring size tyres are only available in "bike country" where hybrid style bikes are ridden.
If fast touring is your thing, then 700c is probably more suitable.
I have a True North touring bike, and it's great. Hugh does excellent work, and he provides excellent follow-up service.Originally Posted by hoss10
I am 200 lb and the wife is 250 lb. Our tandem was almost custom built as we were car-free back then and needed a machine we could use for shopping and hauling loaded trailers. Counterpoint made our semi-recumbent tandem with slightly larger diameter steel tubing and thicker welds then usual. We still use it 20 years later and riders at our annual club picnic were admiring how solidly it was built. The single 20"x2" front wheel takes all of my wifes' weight but gets a little squirmy. I run the pressure for that tire 10-20 PSI over the design pressure. Bilenky is known for custom bikes. Bruce Gordon does custom work and I know from personal experience he is not as curmudgeonly as others make him out to be. Be prepared to pay in the loose ball park of 3000 - 5000 for a great custom bike. A top flight pro fitting like the one from Dr. Andy Pruitt in Colorado includes measurements for bike fitting. Many top bike shops have special fitting frames that can be adjusted for some extreme body shapes.

Hey Hoss, I'm a fellow hoss. I'm 6'2" ~280. I've also got disproportionally short legs (30" inseam). When I first started biking, I got a trek 520 in the closest thing to my size. I found it worked for me test riding and while I was building up my conditioning, but after an hour I found myself continually fidgetting trying to get it correctly (a lot of moving my big butt back and forth on the seat.)
I had IF build me a Club Racer with thicker wall steel tubing. All I can say is, WORLD OF DIFFERENCE. The fit allows me to ride for hours in (relative) comfort. I took it on an 800 mile tour through England with me + 40 extra pounds in baggage. It's a a rock solid bike which serves for touring, commuting, and you can strip off the touring gear to make it surprisingly light considering the thicker tubing. I'm sold on custom built bikes. Mine cost 3x more, but as I find myself riding it 5x more often, it's payed for itself.
I'm a hoss at 230 and about 6'1" and I have slightly short legs I could ride about 54-6 legs and 58 torso. I can get by off the rack but I am going custom to deal with that issue and all the special features I want. I'm doing the frame myself, so I have had to school on what is involved in the beefier frames and the changes aren't all that extreme sorta MTB main triangle and light tandem rear triangle. Not a bad project actually for a cheap Sakkit. At the moment I am building 2 frames one will be tandem weight and the other closer to an LHT, then I will see how they work.
I don't know about getting a Sakkit frame, but the literature is superb for identifying all the strength issues, and component issues. Beyond that Sakkits are integrated as to frame rack and paniers, which is nice but the racks are about what a good custom frame costs, justifiably, so i don't see many people with that stuff.
I'm going with the 26" wheels. I don't get the 29" fad yet, but for the time being it seems irrelevant to tourists until the supply gets out there.
Those voices in your head aren't real, but they have some great ideas
I don't want to hijack this thread into yet another wheel size debate, but the choice of road tires for 26" could hardly be described as "poor." It is in fact quite large and diverse. For someone as large as the OP, 700C wheels make geometric sense, and enough heavy-duty rims are made in 700C these days that better strength in the smaller wheels isn't really an issue, but tire choice and availability is the last reason to stay away from 26 inch wheels for touring.Originally Posted by cyclintom

Director Sameer Sharma is happy that his "underdog" film "Luv Shuv Tey Chicken Khurana" has been well received by audiences, and says it could have gone "unnoticed".
Co-produced by Anurag Kashyap and UTV Motion Pictures, the movie was made within a budget of Rs.3 crore, but it managed to set the cash registers ringing and earned Rs.7 crore within six days of it's Nov 2 release.
"I am really happy to see the audience's response. We had a Rs.3 crore film, which was always an underdog and now we have earned Rs.7 crore and are growing. These are the figures that give you a sense of the audience's appreciation," Sharma told IANS.
"Films like this don't really hit across and go unnoticed. It's amazing that we have been noticed. There is audience appreciation, critical appreciation and industry appreciation. It has been really overwhelming," added the debutant.
The 40-year-old, who has been in the industry for a long time, says it was the faith of the movie's experienced producers that gave him the confidence to go ahead with the project.
"I had UTV and Anurag Kashyap as my producers. For me they are the best people you can get in the business. They have done some fantastic work before, so that took care of everything. These people sensed fun in the film. In that sense, we were very blessed that we have wonderful producers," he said.
The movie, a fun family comedy, features actors Kunal Kapoor and Huma Qureshi in lead roles, and has a bevy of other actors in the cast like Rajesh Sharma, Vipin Sharma, Dolly Aluwalia and the director says he always wanted to make the movie with many characters.
"I wanted an ensemble cast. For me, Kunal and Huma are very important, but so are the rest of the characters. They are all my heroes. Today when people call me after watching the film they talk about each and every character and that I think is the biggest victory.
Sharma, whose film was set around a chicken recipe, shares his recipe to cook a good film.
"I think it is important to make an honest film which is going to engage people and it can be any genre. You have to communicate with the audience. Give them a sense of emotion, make them laugh, touch their souls. It's all about what you create for them, he said.
The director is now working on a new script, based on the world of music.

Immersion Research Supermodel Drysuit - Men'sView Larger Image
- Reviews
What do you think about this product?
Have questions about this product?
Great product and fit
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I have been paddling with this suit for a month now and could not be happier with my choice. I have owned both a palm and kokatat drysuit and I am much happier with the IR suit. I am drier and more comfortable. The lighter fabric moves very well. Time will tell regarding durability but IR has been at this for some time. Before purchasing I talked with IR and I believe they will stand behind their product as well if not better than most.
Keep up the good work and forward thinking.
Nice fit, but not dry.
I bought this suit for the rear zip. This suit is very comfortable and well designed, however the material soaks through. For the price, you can get a Gore Tex Kokatat.

CLEVELAND - White County fire officials are investigating the cause of a fire that occurred Friday night.

 White County Public Safety Director David Murphy said the home fire was in the 1900 block of Lothridge Road.

 "Upon arrival, first units reported heavy fire on one end of the doublewide mobile home," Murphy said. "The fire was quickly knocked down, however the residence will be considered a total loss due to smoke and water damage."

 According to Murphy, residents were home at the time of the fire and quickly escaped without injury.
 Firefighters did have to rescue the family's pet cat from the residence.

 The American Red Cross was called to assist the displaced family.

Here we have a Battletech Marauder on guard with a Geppard anti-aircraft tank. The Marauder is in actuality Bandai's 1/100 scale Tactical Pod Glaug kit from Macross. The Geppard tank is from Roco Mini-Tanks. The flags on both were made from small pieces of tissue paper which were then painted. Gotta love those Mini-Tanks...
The Marauder was always my (2nd) favorite mech back when I played Battletech. My favorite was the Battle Master. I only have ONE photo of any of my old BattleTech mechs, and it's this one: www.coolminiornot.com/232071?b…
Looks pretty snappy! And on the subject of Marauders, I have a spare ARII 1/72 scale kit that I'm thinking about tackling in the near future...
Very nice work.
wow, this is once epic diorama! great sense of scale!
Outstanding! Thanks for posting.
Great use of positioning and colors, and the blue cloth in the back helps keep focus
This is mad awesome
That is one sweet looking Marauder, great job with the backdrop as well.
That is one sweet looking Marauder, great job with the backdrop as well.
Thanks for the kind compliments! Hopefully I'll be able to post more 'mechs in the future. As to the backdrop, thats all just some stuff I had lying around and decided to throw together a quick mini-diorama for the pic. Glad you liked it!

When go-green is the mantra for everyone, how can cinema be left behind. "I Am Kalam" director Nila Madhab Panda has collaborated with London's Performing Arts Labs (PAL) for the Green Screen Lab 2012 movement, aimed at making kids' films in an environment-friendly manner.
The Green Screen Lab invites new and emerging as well as experienced Indian writers to innovate and ideate scripts for films, focused on issues and experiences of the country's children.
Panda, CEO of Elleeanora Images Pvt Ltd, says it's an effort to give back to the society.
"I hope through a process like this we are able to give back something to the society, specially the new generation, even as we create beautiful new dream on the celluloid," Panda, whose next film is titled "Jalpari", said in a statement.
Out of all entries, 18 selected writers will get to work with an expert team of award-winning Indian and international screen writers, producers, directors and actors.
Keeping the environment in mind, the use of artificial lights, sets, usage of diesel will be curtailed, reducing the carbon footprint and costs of each film.
After the writer's lab is over, each writer or a team of writers will be provided creative support for the subsequent six months to develop their projects for pre- production.
Selected projects will also be awarded further development funding, which may include, where appropriate, financial support to attend pitching markets at international children's film festivals.
The Green Screen Lab is supported by the Children's Film Society of India, Goethe Institut, Commonwealth Foundation, the Royal Netherlands Embassy and private donations.

No Health Impact from Wifi or Mobile Phone Emissions
by Bidita Debnath on October 16, 2013 at 11:07 PM General Health News - G J E 4
France's safety watchdog said that it was standing by existing recommendations for wifi, mobile phones and cellphone relay antennas, saying their emissions had "no demonstrated impact" on health.
The National Agency for Health, Food and Environmental Safety (Anses) said that, in lab tests, electromagnetic emissions had had a "biological" effect on cells, although evidence for this was "limited."
AdvertisementBut it saw no grounds for recommending any changes to existing laws as there was "no demonstrated impact" on health.
It said, though, it would make a recommendation that children and big users of mobile phones limit their exposure to the devices.
The report was issued by a panel of 16 experts, who looked at more than 300 scientific studies that have been published since 2009, when the recommendations were last assessed.
The panel noted some studies that have suggested a higher long-term risk of brain cancer for heavy users of mobile phones, Anses said.
"In the light of current knowledge, given the rapid evolution of technologies and their uses, Anses recommends limiting the population's exposure to radio frequency energy -- in particular for mobile phones, and particularly for children and heavy users -- and to control general exposure to relay antennas," it said.
Dominique Gombert, head of risk assessment at Anses, said that heavy use of mobile phones was considered to be 40 minutes a day in conversation.
Options for consumers include using a hands-off kit or selecting a phone with lower electromagnetic emissions, Anses said.
Mobile phones are the biggest single source of everyday exposure to electromagnetic radiation, the agency said.

Schools struggle with method to reduce teaching staffs
Challenges raised to seniority system
Mario Gonzalez started his 90-mile commute to Borrego Springs High School an hour early last semester to teach an extra section of honors history on his own time. He stays late to coach girls soccer, and led a squad that was winless last year to the league championship this season.
None of it saved his job.
Under state law, it doesn't matter how well Gonzalez does his job. What matters is that as a second-year teacher at Borrego Springs High, he hasn't done it long enough. The last-hired/first-fired system that governs layoffs prohibits school boards from saving a star teacher's job by dismissing a more veteran teacher who may not be as effective.
Superintendents who issued tentative layoff notices last month to 1,400 teachers countywide lament that they have no choice but to target some of their brightest prospects.
"I need to save these new teachers, they're the best ones," said San Ysidro Superintendent Manuel Paul, who handed out tentative layoff notices to 39 teachers. "They're coming out of the university much better prepared than me, than all of us."
Two of the 16 Bonsall teachers who received layoff notices last month are teachers of the year for their schools. Last year, Carlsbad Unified School District issued a layoff notice to its district teacher of the year, though he ultimately kept his job.
Favoritism an issueTeachers and others are wary of a merit-based system, saying it puts instructors charged with leading classrooms full of underprivileged students at a disadvantage. Using factors other than experience also can lead to favoritism, they say.
There are plenty of people who say the system needs to be changed. The practice of laying off newer instructors first undermines teaching, suggests a December report from the Center for American Progress, a think tank headed by former Clinton administration chief of staff John Podesta. Despite evidence suggesting that teacher quality is paramount in how much students learn, the job protections afforded by tenure aren't related to teachers' classroom performance, the report said.
Seniority-based layoffs also fail as an efficient cost-cutting measure, said Marguerite Roza of the Center for Reinventing Public Education at the University of Washington. Roza issued a report in February concluding that seniority-based layoffs exacerbate job losses.
Because teacher salaries are tied to years of service, the most recently hired are the lowest-paid. So school boards must fire more new teachers than if they were able to dismiss a mix of new and old.
"Not only do more people get laid off and hit the streets as unemployed, but class sizes get larger" with fewer teachers to educate the same number of students, Roza said.
Experience valuedBorrego Springs' Gonzalez defends the system; he believes loyalty should count for something.
So does Teresa Juarez, who was one of five Sweetwater Union High School District teachers of the year in 2008 and one of 109 who received tentative layoff notices last month.
Even before Juarez's notice was rescinded two weeks ago, Juarez stood up for seniority. She cited the heroics of Capt. Chesley Sullenberger, the veteran pilot who saved the lives of all 155 people aboard his crippled jetliner in January when he landed it on the Hudson River, as a demonstration of the value of experience.
Seniority works because it's a coldly objective system, said Linda Cartwright, president of the National City Elementary Teachers Association.
Teachers union leaders worry that a merit-based system would be characterized by favoritism and measures of teacher effectiveness that are based more on opinion than fact.
"The problem then becomes very subjective. What is merit?" Cartwright asked. "It's not like you're in factory production and how many widgets did you turn out."

I was told by the dealership that my O2 sensor needs to be replaced and that there is a 60% chance that the sensor can seize in the manifold causing the manifold to break. He said if that's the case then I can add $1,000 to my costs. Is it typical for a manifold to break during a O2 sensor change or am I being set up for a scam? My van has about 174,000 miles on it.

Jan 6 2009Darth Vader Joins Church, Church Not Happy
In this video, somebody awesome dressed up as Darth Vader and joined the procession of the Clergy of the Lutheran Church of Iceland. You can see a couple of the members none too happy about Darth's appearance around the 0:15 mark. Sadly, they were powerless to do anything. Which proves my theory -- even God is a little wary of Vader's force-choke.
Hit the jump for another video from failblog of a highly unethical pizza delivery driver.
Thanks to Julie, who once force-choked a nun for slapping her on the knuckles with a ruler.

This is exactly like that scene from ther movie Never Back Down where Max's moped is in the shop after being run through a wood chipper. He was hunger so he ordered a bacon pizza for delivery, and asked the guy to pick up Baja on the way since it was on the way.
When the delivery guy showed up, the pizza was cold, and Baja had her shirt on backwards. The delivery boy didn't make Max pay for the pizza either.
I love lamp.
1. Get a sense of humour churchies!
2. I would eat that pizza even after seeing it on the floor but no tip for delivery boy.
strangely enough i had a dream about darth vader being in a procession at a catholic church just link this when i was a kid. Even stranger still... i wrote it down and used that text for body copy in a graphic design project last quarter.
long live lord vader!

the darth vader one was lame, anyone can stand 10 feet away from the end of the line. now if he was in the middle, and went inside the church that would have been a different story. get some balls VADER, YA CUNTT!
This is not fake, It's a news broadcast from Iceland that someone put the Star Wars music over. You can tell by the Name that is on screen at 00:05. Gudfinnur Sigurvinsson. There is even an email for that person flashed underneath the name at the Icelandic National TV station RUV. I am assuming that is the person who was reporting on it.

Also, I just found out that it was a friend of a friend in the Darth Vader suit. Icelanders pulling pranks like this is not uncommon, you have find some way to entertain yourself on a frozen rock in the north Atlantic!
There must be some back history with that pizza delivery. Guys probably a notorious bad tipper. Yet another reason to be polite to the people who deal with your food. I heard a story from one of my friends who was a server at a restaurant that we'll call Olive blank, no thats too obvious, how bout blank Garden. Anyhoo this lady would come in everyday at lunch and talk down to, yell at, and generally belittle the servers. Which would be fine if she didn't only leave like fifty cents tip So one day she got violently ill from her food and came in threatening to sue. Well she got a free dinner... and guess what happened to that. Moral of the story- the universe balances itself.
That Darth Vader shit is hilarious. I love it when people take the micky out of religious drones.
I've seen this before, and I thought then that the people at the 15 second mark looked amused. I still think this.
for those who do not have enough imagination ... I live in Iceland and saw this on the news here, so face it, this isn't photoshopped.

"Banshee": "The Kindred" episode debuts Feb. 8
This week's episode of "Banshee," titled "The Kindred," premieres at 9 p.m. Friday, Feb. 8 on Cinemax.
A summary of the episode, provided by Cinemax, is as follows:
A band of marauding bikers crashes the annual Banshee Spirit Festival, with deadly consequences, sparking Lucas (Antony Starr) and Siobahn (Trieste Kelly Dunn) to mete out vigilante justice. Burned after losing his key witness against Proctor (Ulrich Thomsen), Lucas is further dismayed when FBI agent Xavier (Derek Cecil) arrives to monitor the situation. Rebecca Bowman (Lili Simmons), torn between passion and her Amish roots, finds a kindred spirit in the sheriff.
Written by Jonathan Tropper & David Schickler; directed by S.J. Clarkson.

Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Photo from previous loan
Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

I've never worn a bike helmet
I used to wear a helmet, but have stopped
I've always worn a helmet
I didn't wear a helmet, but now do
I sometimes wear a helmet depending on the conditions
"Think of bicycles as rideable art that can just about save the world". ~Grant Petersen
Cyclists fare best when they recognize that there are times when acting vehicularly is not the best practice, and are flexible enough to do what is necessary as the situation warrants.--Me
I just saw a young lady yesterday, fairly new at cycling roll up to a stop sign, attempted to unclip but failed, fell over and smacked her helmeted head on the pavement hard enough to crack the styrofoam liner. I was the not far behind her so obviously I stopped to help. She was holding the side of her head but she was ok...ok in more ways then one if you get my meaning. Anyway, had she not been wearing a helmet I would have to call 911. She was kind of upset with herself and cycling about not being able to unclip so I talked with her for awhile to encourage her. Ahh, to be unmarried and 30 years younger...
I don't care what Mick says, time is not on my side.
Sound the clarion for mandatory platform pedal laws, that incidentally come equipped with safety reflectors unlike the high zoot pedal systems sold at the finest cycling salons that also hawk high price helmets.
Ok, you freakin' helmet nazis, listen the freak up. I'm sick of your stupid, inane belief that everyone needs to hear your uninformed, illogical and, frankly, stupid beliefs about magic foam.
Today, I'm having a nice ride with my daughter, popping along the MUP, just enjoying each other's company. Fellow passes us, he's wearing a cool jersey, I tell him hey, nice kit, speed up a bit to get a closer look. We chat all friendly-like for a couple of minutes, I'm about to take my leave, and he says:
"Can I give you a piece of advice?"
I shoulda said no. I just shoulda said no. But, I thought he was going to tell me to keep my daughter locked up because she's a looker, which she is, even though I'm her dad. I can't claim any contribution there. But what the freak does he do? "Y'know, you really should wear a helmet, because-"
I stopped him right there. I cited him 24 seconds of chapter and verse on the research, told him my decision is based on logical analysis of the research, and I don't care if he wears a helmet or not, I'll thank him to ride his ride and I'll ride mine. At that point, I drop back to rejoin my daughter, he slows down and starts telling me how a goddamn stupid piece of foam saved his old, shriveled and worthless stinking ass.
Once again, I told him I've already heard it, and I'm not buying his stupid sales pitch. At which point he rides on ahead, and about minute later, I watched him blow by a stop sign on a busy road crossing the MUP. All I could do was laugh. My daughter just shakes her (unhelmeted) head.
You goddamn stupid helmet gits, you bloody well don't get it, do you? You're all blithering idiots. So **** off.
Thanks for listening. That was fun.
I think, as was noted, it may be a bit of a double-edged sword. People who don helmets are, presumably, starting from a position where you can probably assume they have some care about safety. What my fear is, is that they overestimate what a helmet can do, mostly because it is constantly drilled into everyone's head that "helmets save lives". Even in the best of cases, I don't think most people here think they save lives as a common occurrence (especially since most fatal accidents occur with cars and with severe bodily injury as well); most of the debate seems to center around whether it may sometimes, and whether that warrants wearing one. But that isn't the public perception, due to the way they are presented by public groups. This can lead to some serious risk-compensation behavior, I think moreso and more dangerously than people simply overestimating their abilities. People overestimating themselves happens in all activities, and there isn't a whole lot you can do to effectively stop it (an alarming number of people still think they can drive adequately while intoxicated, something we've gone to great pains to fight against). But the helmet risk-compensation factor is an additional variable that we can control, simply by educating the public to their limitations. Accuse me of being anti-helmet if you wish, but that really is my major goal. Past that, I don't much care if someone decides to don one, although I do see it as mostly unnecessary.
Long-winded, but I think I needed to expand on that a bit.
"The bicycle is the noblest invention of mankind. I love the bicycle. I always have. I can think of no sincere, decent human being, male or female, young or old, saint or sinner, who can resist the bicycle."
- William Saroyan
Hey skye, you bring back memories of the guy who chewed me out for not having a bell.
Still, they are a bit more insulated from the world at large than those who think that cycling is an inherently safe activity, with just that infinitesimal margin of helmet usage, than those who choose not to use a helmet. Like newbies who have a penchant for falling over at a stop because they are otherwise engaged.
Do helmets provide or not provide some rudimentary protection within their design parameters for people who might engage the protective abilities as tested?
I know next to nothing. I am frequently wrong.
*lesser probability of higher speed collisions/crashes with its associated greater severity injuries,
*less collisions in traffic caused by the "racing" handlebar/posture encouraging looking down at the ground rather than forward,
*fewer collisions due to road debris and storm grates as a result of more forgiving wider tires,
*fewer collisions caused by reckless cyclists encouraged by their choice of equipment and its intended purpose to ride on bike paths and among pedestrians as if they are a dang race.
Yes use of racing equipment should be outlawed on public roads and MUPS and bikepaths, or at the very least discouraged with cycling club mandates and derisive talk of idiocy and Darwinism just like the helmet mongering acolytes proselytize; - If "safety at all costs," no matter how foolishly defined, is the be-all and end-all answer for all cycling issues.
Ok brother ringing my bell, "On your left"....
if you were to simply stumble walking down the street would you use your face to stop yourself?
oh and skate boarding isn't bike riding, that's what we call apples and oranges.
yep, I can see why some of you need helmets, what with those stubby little arms flailing about.

MACON, Ga. (AP) — Sarah Hansen scored 16 points, hitting four 3-pointers, as top-seeded Florida Gulf Coast routed Stetson 67-39 to win its first Atlantic Sun Conference tournament championship on Saturday, capping an undefeated run through league play.
Courtney Chihil added 15 points to push her career total over 1,000 points for the Eagles, who clinched their first NCAA tournament berth in their first year of eligibility.
The Eagles (29-2) followed an 18-0 regular-season conference slate with three tournament wins, joining the 1993 Florida International squad as the only teams to stay unbeaten through the regular season and tournament.
The 29 wins tied FIU's 1997-98 total for the most ever by an A-Sun team.
Victoria McGowan, the 2012 A-Sun Player of the Year, scored 17 to lead the second-seeded Hatters.
Florida Gulf Coast, which leads the nation in 3-pointers (10.8 per game) hit 11 of 28, compared to just 2 of 18 for Stetson.

BUZZARDS BAY, Mass. – To anyone outside of the Sandwich locker room, it may come as a surprise that the No. 17 Blue Knights are in the semifinals.
But for Sandwich, it doesn't come as much of a shocker.
"I think we are surprising all the folks outside of our league," Sandwich head coach Steve Noll said. "Our league knows how we play."
The Blue Knights have been tested all year long, so when Medway/Ashland scored the game-tying goal with 3:07 on the clock, no one panicked.
Less than two minutes into the overtime period, Katie Lowry and Maggie Layo turned a 2-on-2 counter-rush into a Layo breakaway, who went on to score the game-winning goal for a 3-2 Sandwich win.
"We saw the Falmouth game go into overtime and we didn't want any of that at all, it was so much stress," Layo said. "So going into it we knew we had to get it quick. We put on the boosters and got the goal."
The Medway/Ashland team did a great job of neutralizing the Blue Knights attack all game aided by solid play from Kathryn Hamer and her 21 saves in net.
But with the season on the line, the last player that the Mustangs wanted to get loose on a breakaway was Layo and her 200-plus career points.
Upon entering the offensive zone, Lowry took the puck to the far right side, drawing both defenders to her. Lowry looked up, saw Layo all alone on the opposite end and fed her the puck. Hamer got a stick on Layo's shot, but the puck had enough to crawl over the goal line.
"Honestly all I said was don't freak out," Noll told his team before the overtime period. "We got this. You guys came way too far to give it up in the last five minutes. This is our game, our rink and they aren't going to take it away."
After turning in one of their best defensive efforts of the season, Sandwich surrendered the game-tying goal to defensemen Rae Lambert with just over three minutes to play. From the left point, Lambert threw a puck on net that made its way through traffic and past goalie Allison Hir.
That goal gave momentum to the Mustangs heading into the extra period as they erased a two-goal third period deficit.
Defensive statement: It has been a week since the Blue Knights played their last game, knocking off top-seeded Tewksbury/Methuen in the first round of the Div. 2 tournament.
During that week, the Blue Knights focused soley on their defensive game and it showed on Saturday night, holding the Mustangs to just 15 shots and scoreless through the first 33 minutes.
"We spent seven days working on playing layers in our zone," Noll said. "We tried to eliminate all the chasing and they scored the second goal because we were chasing but overall they executed 95% of the time."
Equally impressive was Hir, who came out with big saves in the second period. Hir was plucked off the field hockey roster by Noll this past season and is playing her first year between the pipes.
"Look where she is today versus 10, 12 weeks ago," said Noll. "She played outstanding and made the saves she needed to."
Bouncing back: The first shot of the game is one that the Mustangs and Hamer would like to forget. Sandwich's Nicole Martin took a soft shot from the left point 3:15 into the game that somehow managed to get under Hamer's stick.
But from there she rebounded well, stopping the next 14 shots until Layo scored early in the third period on a breakaway.
"I think it caught her off guard," Mustang coach Kurt Carter said of the early goal. "I think they took it to us in the first period and Catherine settled in. I don't know how I would have reacted after letting up a fluke goal, I think I would have melted."
The Sandwich top-line of Layo, Lowry and Claire Gauthier showed off some phenomenal passing in the early going, but Hamer quickly put the fluke goal behind her and turned in an excellent game.

Phillips, Gerald F., Dispute Resolution Journal
There is supposed to be a trend toward including mediation as the first step in the dispute resolution provision of contracts. I find this is not the case. In my experience as a full-time neutral, many lawyers fail to discuss the benefits of mediation with their clients unless obligated to do so by a rule or a statute, or when a court is about to send the case to a courtappointed mediator. Many litigators still seem to fear that raising the subject of mediation (or suggesting it) makes them appear weak and not the gladiator they perceive the client wants. I believe that a litigator who asks if the client wants to consider mediation is acting ethically and doing her job as counsel.
True, a case that is mediated earns the attorney less money because the chances are that the case will settle during the mediation. But not mentioning mediation because of this would be an unethical act of self-interest.
The question raised in this article is this: "Should an arbitrator raise the subject of mediation with the parties to the dispute?" I would answer "usually" for the reason that parties generally are better off mediating than using an adjudicatory process in which a third party decides the dispute. Furthermore, mediation is faster and more likely than arbitration to lead to a resolution that will satisfy both parties.
The College of Commercial Arbitrators (CCA), of which I am a member, has considered this question in its new Guide to Best Practices in Commercial Arbitration (Best Practices Guide).1 Under the heading "Encouraging Mediation or Other Settlement Efforts" the Best Practices Guide states: "Arbitrators should be cautious about encouraging parties in an arbitration to pursue mediation or other settlement efforts but may appropriately do so in cases in which the benefits of that course clearly outweigh the possible harms." The Best Practices Guide also acknowledges that "whether arbitrators, at or before the preliminary conference, should suggest that the parties consider mediating their dispute ... is a matter of some disagreement among arbitrators."2
It goes on to note that "[s]ome arbitrators believe that since mediation is often a more economical and a less risky way to resolve disputes than arbitration and some parties may be unaware of the mediation alternative, arbitrators should bring this matter to their attention at the preliminary conference for their consideration." The Best Practices Guide says "[t]he [CCA] takes no position" on the issue and concludes with this cautionary statement: "Perhaps the best advice that can be given is that arbitrators should approach this matter with care, conscious of both the potential benefits and potential risks, and should tailor their actions to the circumstances of each case rather than adopting a uniform practice to be followed at all preliminary conferences."3
To find out what other experienced arbitrators think about bringing up the subject of mediation during the first preliminary conference or at another time, I prepared a questionnaire and sent it to 150 leading commercial arbitrators who are members of the CCA or the California Dispute Resolution Counsel.4
I received 52 partially answered replies. The tabulated results are interesting but I found even more revealing the comments made by those who responded to the survey. This article presents some of those comments for consideration.
1. When you are about to arbitrate a dispute, during the preliminary conference or at any time during the arbitration, do you ask counsel whether the parties have considered mediation?
Answers: Usually 14; Sometimes 15; Rarely 10; Never 11
Out of 50 responses, more than 55% of respondents answered "usually" or "sometimes."5 Twenty percent answered "rarely" and over 20% answered "never."
David N. Brainin, Of Counsel to New York's Locker, Greenberg & Brainin, answered "usually." He also commented: "Since one (or both parties) may be concerned that they would show weakness by mentioning mediation, I believe this is a good opportunity to put the idea on the table. …
