  • Depends if you ride for commute (as in you need to get from point A to B) or for recreation (bike for couple of hours)

    If it’s recreation it’s fine to cut down on distance and tire yourself out. Treat it like gym training. If you aren’t tired, it wasn’t good training. Maybe plan a shorter trip but a more intense one.

    I found that after couple of months of daily commuting my speeds improved and I could finally go up that steep hill without stopping.

    Good luck and stay safe!










  • Lemmy devs - they are a curse and a blessing. A blessing that they worked on lemmy before reddit exodus. A curse as it’s hard to contribute to the codebase and related components.

    At least we have mbin and piefed to federate with.

    Also in the 2 years since, the culture has shifted. There is less: “This is a new place. let’s make it enjoyable for everyone” and more “I am right, everyone is wrong, and I will ruin your day”, but that could be just my perception and not enough blocking.
