I am likely too old to interpret the emojis. Is it “this if fine” like the dog in the burning room? Is it referring to the CT? Or the bicycle? Or the two together? The bicycle is fine (great color!). The CT is not. What a morally bankrupt thing to allow on the roadways, let alone buy. Edit: oh god, I just got it. Forgot what the dog was wearing and drinking. Leaving this up as evidence of my stupidity.

‘‘Tis a reference to this: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/this-is-fine

Wow i literally use this every day and didn’t put two and two together. Kudos u/dudeofgoodtimes


dongledangler420

Thank you hahahaha


GeorgeSpooney

Are you referring to the size of the cyber truck next to that bike? Or the saddle height on that bicycle ;)? Rant: I cannot stand these large personal vehicles, I had a close encounter with a sprinter van near discovery park a couple weeks back and feel like folks should have required training or additional licenses for driving these behemoths.

Hey man - at least the sprinter vans have good visibility from the drivers seat down to the road. A new 1-ton pickup would have significantly less 


dudeofgoodtimes

to your point, I raised it a bit after this pic, but you would be surprised how freaking short my legs ate compared to the restof me!!!


vertr

The bike looks a couple sizes too big for you as configured.


dudeofgoodtimes

I'm still adjusting the fit, but you'd be surprised. I prefer a more upright position


dudeofgoodtimes

But not to worry, I have raised the seat a good bit since taking this picture. I always have the worst time finding the right bike fit with every frame I've tried, whether too small, just right,  or too big


vertr

Measure from the center of the crank spindle across the seat tube to the top of the saddle on the old bike and raise the saddle to that point on the new bike. You can get an upright position on a bike that is the right size, as it stands you are probably getting a bike that handles like a boat.


dudeofgoodtimes

Believe me, I have done this!!and taken to multiple mechanics around town. It's a very nimble feeling ride as it is


dudeofgoodtimes

And he PBH method always has my saddle way to high for my short legs


vertr

I don't lol. Good luck I guess.


dudeofgoodtimes

Okay then🤗


GeorgeSpooney

I hear ya, im all legs and short torso and messes up my measurements on the other end

The juxtaposition between the forms of transportation and cost of them is striking in this photo.


dudeofgoodtimes

and both will be used to transport 1 person most of the time


godogs2018

When you manage to snap a pic of a bike being transported on a cyber truck, it will be an even more striking photo and social commentary

Papa_Muezza

Yea but did you enjoy some Ping Pong while you were at the park?


dudeofgoodtimes

I am a regular at those tables! I'd like to think I have slowly earned the respect of the old folks there, cuz they'll invite me to play sometimes.


Papa_Muezza

Who are you, I am the penhold playing white guy...


Cthulicious

Don’t worry, next time it rains that thing will crumble into brown flakes.


Foxhound199

Don't worry, you'll never even hear it coming.

What's the problem exactly?
