Bicycle Trainer

Bicycle Trainer
Can a monkey, taught to ride a bicycle by a trainer be able to teach its baby this learnt skill on its own?

General Prospect

Monkeys usually teach their offspring important survival skills, like where to find food, how to avoid predators, things like that. I highly doubt that riding a bicycle would be high on its list of priorities as a skill to teach its young.

Of course, you would have to be talking about a monkey in captivity, as monkeys in the wild do not ride bicycles, so theoretically it could teach its baby by example. It would ride the bicycle, and the baby would see and want to try. But it would not make a concious decision, like a human does, “Today, I think I’ll teach Junior how to ride a bicycle.” Nor would the parent monkey aid the baby, the way a human would, walking beside it and holding the bicycle to steady it until the little one got its balance.

Rowing Gloves for Crew? Way too many blisters, need help?

So I am on Varsity crew at my school, and have rowed for two years now. I have always suffered from an abnormal amount of blisters (that get ripped off quickly and leave raw skin). I have like a dozen raw spots on my hands, it is painful, ugly, and probs not very healthy (disease attraction?)

I need someway to not get them anymore. Gloves? What type of gloves? Kayaking gloves? Bicycle gloves? What?

I used to get really bad blisters when I rowed too, but those occurred mainly when I rowed with the newer, non-wooden oars. I bought a pair of weightlifting gloves and those worked REALLY well as far as protecting my hands until they were able to heal. They gripped well and prevented more blisters.

Apart from that, you’ll want to work on toughening your hands so you don’t get the blisters at all. Stop using lotion (i don’t know anything about the burt’s bees cornhuskers lotion, so I can’t recommend it or say it’s not any good), and try to keep your hands dry. My hands sweat a lot, and the newer oars don’t absorb the moisture, so it’s just a bad situation whenever I row with them.

I’ve heard that if you make a solution of hot salt water and soak the palms of your hands in it for ~5 min every day/ every other day it’ll help dry your hands out and make them as tough as you need them to be. I’ve not tried this, but it makes logical sense that the salt would toughen your skin.

Rowing is not a sport for soft, touchable hands : )

Threadless Road
What is the difference between a threadless and threaded fork and headset?

on track/road bikes?

The threaded headset will have a nut at the top that hold the forks to the frame. The thread-less one uses spacers between the handlebars and the frame and the top cap provides the pressure to hold it all together.

Bicycle Hub

Bicycle Hub
Who invented the quick release hub for bicycle wheels?

The mechanism was invented in 1927 by Tullio Campagnolo, an Italian bicycle racer, He was frustrated when he needed to repair a flat tire during a race. The weather had turned cold, and his hands were numb, so he could not operate the wingnuts which retained the wheel. He had been well-placed prior to the puncture, but lost valuable time.
