I'm 198cm and 100kg, with most of my height in my legs. All of the folding bikes I've looked at recommend a maximum height of 190cm.

Are there any options for me? I'd love to have a folding bike for short trips when I go to other cities. I'm in the UK.

This documentary about messenger cyclists in NYC was an entertaining and interesting watch.

I've been to a few bike shops that don't have any bike racks outside. It's bizarre. Like, you have to bring your bike in the shop just to pick something up or to have a look around.

I'm not even talking about one place that does this, I have at least three in the area where there are no bike racks at all.

Is this normal? Why???

Evening folks!

Looking for some suggestions on a good bike route tracking app to use. I know of Strava and Komodo, but I’m aware they were bought out and therefore I don’t trust their data privacy. Any suggestions?

I use my Garmin Enduro to track my biking sessions, but look for something on my phone to for both a map during rides and being able to share routes. I saw there is TrailLink, which is great for finding trails but does not track. Tried OrganicMaps but it gets me lost as it keeps showing abandoned railroads that look like trails 🤣. The Aventon app is nice but it drains the battery super fast.

Thanks in advance!
