Question How can I get oil out of my MTB disc brake pads?
I went to get something on my mountain bike checked out at the bike shop, and at the same time they told me that my brake pads were absorbing oil.

Comment Post #285060 There seems to be a disconnect to some degree between various members of the community here about what constitutes "rude" comments, @#36396. Our [Code of Conduct](https://outdoors.codidact.com/policy/code-of-conduct) is intentionally fairly vague on that point, but it does say this: > Always be co...

Comment Post #284939 Ah, yes, I should mention that the roads I'm referring to are very rural, with long stretches of windy, hilly roads with no streetlights. That does change things slightly.

Question How do I safely ride my road bike in the winter?
It's November, and in the Northern Hemisphere, winter is fast approaching - and with it, the rain. As a cyclist, I do occasionally enjoy taking my road bike out on the roads and just pedaling, without the added technical challenge that mountain biking involves. However, I've as yet not done this i...

Comment Post #74959 @manassehkatz - why would road racing be off topic? It is most definitely an outdoor activity (leaving aside indoor trainers at the moment). Maybe the race mechanics, sure, but I don't see why questions about road _bikes_ and road biking in general wouldn't be on-topic. I don't think the mechanics of...
