I'm an experienced bike commuter and touring cyclist. I have passions for folding bikes, drawing and painting, and playing my guitars. I'm often seen hauling groceries with or taking photos from my bike. I'm also a musician, and my band also has released a couple of albums.

wind noise obscuring traffic noise How bad is your eyesight exactly? Do you have problems with vision in general? Peripheral vision? Do you use a mirror? |

Sun protective clothing interfering with bike mirror Is a better-fitting sun drape an option? Or can you tailor the one you hava? (If you have a picture of you in the sun drape, seeing that might help.) |

Sun protective clothing interfering with bike mirror I assume the close vote is because this question is similar to the linked question, but I'm comfortable with this being left open as a more specific variation. (And my answer to this question wouldn't apply to the linked question in any case.) |

Looking for the right bike There's a big difference between a 10 mile ride and a 50 mile ride, and people refer to both as "long". Any idea what the longest ride is you have planned? (A good rule of thumb is 10 miles = about 1 hour.) Also, how much do you have to spend on this? |

I'm lost with all the names of bike parts flying around! Agreed. Ethan, feel free to add to the terminology index; you only need 100 rep to edit CW posts. And even if you're vague on what a term means, put it in anyway and someone else will improve it. |

I live in a place where it frequently floods. How can I keep my chain from rusting? Interesting situation. A few questions that may help us give better answers: Can you describe the options that do exist for storage? i.e., what outdoor areas are available, and do you have the option to install hooks or what have you out of doors in these places?) Why can't you bring the bike inside? And is spending a little money on the problem an option, or do you need a cheap/free solution? |

How to lubricate noisy joint on Dahon foldable bike? Did you bring your bike to shops that are familiar with Dahons? I ask because I've found that many shops not familiar with folding bikes will misdiagnose problems. |
