Welcome to Josh Q Cyclist. So there are the John Q Citizens out there - your average every day people and as I am an average every day cyclist with an average budget, that makes me Josh Q Cyclist.
I’m a photographer and amateur cyclist. I commute to work on my bike as much as possible, I hit the road for the charity rides, and, like so many, I try to hit the trails on the weekend and watch the miles tick away. Basically, time in the saddle is a zen escape for me.

Cafe Stop - Two Days and Two Challenging Rides - Episode 5
Second Gran Fondo completed, but not without issues and struggles. Not only did I tackle the Highlands Gran Fondo, but I also did the Armed Forces Cycling Challenge the day before. Lots of riding and even more driving. This was not an easy weekend but I somehow survived ... just barely.
So I started to do a little audio journal podcast .... thing. I am using this as a way to track and document my 2024 goal of seeing how close I can get to qualifying for the 2024 Gran Fondo National Championships.

Surviving the Florida Gran Fondo
Переглядів 64 місяці тому
Well there you have it - officially done with the first competitive Gran Fondo for me. How did I do? By the pure numbers terribly, but how do I feel about it - well let’s talk about that shall we… So yeah, for my age group I was at the bottom, not the last person but not that far away from being so. And for the overall I did a little better, but only marginally being at the bottom 20%. I haven’...

2024 Goals - Gran Fondo National Championships

For 2024 I am giving myself a cycling challenge - seeing how close I can get to qualifying for the 2024 Gran Fondo National Championships. In 2023 I didn’t do much on the bike - thanks to well, life, work, and any other excuse I could come up with. Next year I need to re-energize my approach to being on the bike and to give my training a specific goal - instead of training just because. I have ...

I'm mulling over 1x conversion, technically done it already by cutting the FD. But to do it properly, would love to use Hope RX crankset with direct mounted chainrings.
Ooh! That's a very nice bb tool!
still waiting for the Part 2
JOSH! :( Where is part 2 etc? How did to go with the Sensah Groupset?
Hey, what model of fenders are you using? Im currently using ass savers, but these are not touring friendly
Any updates on this project?
Hey man, best of luck to you. I'll just sit my lazy self down over here and watch.
MTB cooler
Would be helpful if you said what size tools are needed...
You are so right, my mistake not including that. 6mm and 8mm hex/allen keys are needed to remove spindle.
@@jqcyclist what brand of torque wrench was that?
what is the weight of the frame?
Do you remember what rear rack and fenders you are using on it?
When is part two coming? I'm looking to do the same and am curious how you went about it
Waiting for the Part-2
what fenders/mudguard ? i got marin four cornes M size:)
When is Part 2 coming? I too ride four corners
Beautiful editing
Thank you very much. I appreciate it!
Don't get too excited 😂🤣

My condolences to friends and family
I’ve been shopping for a bike trunk rack and my biggest concern is the metal hooks touching my paint. Are the hooks rubberized or padded?Looking for my best option. Thanks
The hooks are coated. While they aren’t rubberized, the coating does help protect your car. In all the times I’ve put this rack on and off I’ve never come close to scratching or chipping the trunk.
They look nice!! Can't wait to fit mine
If its raining what's happening damage or not
I guess I need new shoes now
Short answer yes, long answer yeeeeesssss
Done RAGBRAI twice hoping to do it again in '22. Thanks for sharing.
Cool vid. Thanks for making and posting. Was nice to relive it!
Gravel was very loose/soft that year and felt unsafe. Many turned around after starting it, like me.
12:48 That's not sketchy at all! Zip ties are definitely going to hold and will not get brittle from the sun. This is a very good idea and you are really, really smart and cool.
I can under stand the reasoning for them only programming the boards. People will do anything to cause trouble
May i fit it in my bike??
damn 5:30 groovin to this trance lol
I thought the pad goes between the spoke and the board to keep the boards from being impacted?
Can I use the rack on my Jeep renegade 2019?
Does outside have customer service or a website because there products suck broke in less then 3 minutes it wouldn't charge I felt like I got ripped off
Thank you!
cant go wrong with the good old cunty
I too own Monkey Lights or what they used to be called MonkeyLectric and for the viewers cameras don't show how vivid the colors are from these light. I owned mine for five years. The unit I bought was before the battery hub. I am about to buy a newer unit.
Fun video... thanks for making it... Meanwhile, I think Conti would say, with a huge sigh, "It doesn't matter," but so that it doesn't become a "you did it wrong," moment for viewers out there in the road-bike wild, I'd add that the shark fin tread (I like to go by the fin that's slanted, BTW) should, when the wheel is rolling, move as if a shark was underneath the fin. The GP4KsII I just bought has "ROTATION ->" embossed on, which I intend to follow for the aforementioned reason... others might want to mount in reverse to bug the retentive types in their midst ;) ... since your video doesn't make any mention of it, I include it here in your comments... /Ride ON/
Welcome to Iowa... did you ride again this year?
I did ride this year. The Century loop was a little crazy with all the wind. Did you ride?
Josh Q Cyclist I was able to get in a couple days. Did Jefferson to Ames and Ames to Newton. That's close to home for me.
Hey! I’m preparing for the 2018 ragbrai. At 1:47 is that a kid you know? I think it might be me lol because I recognise that area and I look like that.
