I have a couple of friends who believe that riding a road bike--regardless of handlebar setup, size, fit, etc.--is much more difficult than riding an MTB/ATB (i.e., mountain bike), because it is harder to balance. Maybe I've just been riding bikes too long, but... no?

Body position makes a big difference in balancing (e.g., the muscle habits to balance in a bent-over "racer" position are different from a more upright position), and skinny/hard road tires can cause difficulties with irregularities in the road surface. Bike geometry and fit matter, as well, though both of these friends ride MTBs with geometry not totally dissimilar to road bikes and which put them in a very similar body position. The wheel sizes aren't wildly different, either.

Balancing itself--the issue these friends are convinced is the problem--doesn't seem to be about the tire size; it's about steering (with some baseline velocity). Am I confused about this? I'm not an Excellent Cyclist (i.e., I've never done trials riding or racing), but I've been cycling here and there for a few decades. Maybe I've just adjusted or something? I get on a road bike and it's pretty much the same balancing difficulty as a mountain bike. Am I wrong about this? Are my perceptions altered from all the years of casual bike use?

@AlexanderKingsbury @Radical_EgoCom Since you seem to be desperate to avoid doing so yourself, I will go ahead and provide a #definition for #capitalism :

An economic system in which a limited number of individuals with access to the means of production exploit resources(animate & inanimate) in the most efficient way they know to accumulate as much wealth as possible.

Geht es nur mir so, oder ist die Rassismus-Debatte über Chialo und Scholz sinnlos aufgebauscht?

Ich meine keiner würde sich darüber aufregen, wenn 2 hellhäutige Politiker wie Merz und Scholz sich als „Hofnarr“ beleidigen würden.

Ich meine ist es nicht rassistisch die Debatte aufzumachen, weil Herr Chialo schwarz ist?

Am I wrong for thinking out the box from where I stay? Am I wrong for saying that I choose another way? I ain't trying to do what everybody else doing.

I recently heard that most American's are #antiunion - that seems absurd. I was under the impression that #unions and #protests were fundamental structures in the balance of power between #citizens , #government , and #corporations . I have always believed that no American worker is against unions, but that all favour job #stability and avoided unions for fear that they might not be able to feed their families. #amiwrong

Whoever was naming colours got "puce" and "chartreuse" backwards. Puce should be a sick green shade and chartreuse should be like cloudy red wine.
