Through the Eyes of the Beerholder - Sunday Comics with Taj Mihelich

Jul 21, 2019
by Taj Mihelich  
Over my lifetime I have learned how to enjoy pretty much every kind of bike riding. However, I do remember those times when I was so focused on one kind of riding that I didn't give much credit to the others. I hope y'all enjoy any kind of bike that you end up on, but this comic I'm going back to my more close-minded days. For your entertainment...

 @yzedf: I was just saying that it's quite brave from Taj to bring up a niche in a niche which is fixed gear freestyle. He was/is a bmxer but I don't think even most bmxers have heard of that riding style.

 Fixedgearfreestyle is pretty fun actualy! Its like a 26"BMX with a fixedgear hub! You can also ride fakie(in reverse) for as long as you can/want. youtu.be/exvADVctiw8 @scotttherider:

 @colincolin: I agree with you. It's been around forever and not a niche. Just because someone recently found out about it doesn't make it a niche.

 The tail on a triathlete is confused with the two water bottles they put behind their seats although every bit of wind tunnel science says that it is the worst place to mount a bottle. The reason they look so strange is the compression sleeves and clothing they wear. Once again - no science to back it. The odd appendages they have limit their ability to change tubes, fix flats and preform basic maintenance. Keep these cartoons up. You rock.
  • 3 0
 So are you saying it is better to put the bottles up your @r$e ??
  • 4 0
 maybe just on the frame mounts between the tubes. But again there is no science to back up any performance gain from the up yours position so the tri geeks should embrace it.

 Best yet! As an Alien fan, I loved the last one.
