I'm an old guy just getting my old mountain bike back
on the road this spring. i was at the lbs and noticed
that very few (none that i saw) of the bikes on display
had ends. makes me think. maybe they look goofy. should
i take them off? i really don't know why i put them on
except to provide a different hand position. ...thehick

Yes, take them off unless you plan on riding in your
local Gay Pride Parade!

Well, when bar end usage makes me gay, then I'll be proud
to be a [censored].

A standard joke we have always had between our riding group
was that when you're riding alot you might tend to notice
when other people don't set up their bikes correctly. Most
common flaw is seat too low, but I always get a chuckle when
folks have their bar ends pointed up on a 45 deg ree angle
or even higher. They're usually cheap bikes too.

I find it especially painful to see people pedalling
too slowly.

You'd be in a whole lotta pain climbing a hill behind me.

My friends, "Slacker, dang... how do you even pedal the
slow? It's more painful that way, then if you kicked it up a
couple gears!"
