There is another way to ride.
DERAILED COUTURE
#1 DERAILLEUR AESTHETIC, DRESS CONFIDENTLY. RIDE BOLDLY. RIDE YOU.
- TJ
- Derailleur is a personal way of cycling. One that lets you be yourself. One that gives you the freedom to be yourself. There is one form of freedom I want to spend some serious time...
#126 YOUR STYLE IS YOUR SEED OF RESILIENCE
- TJ
- I like to head out on my rides with a mission. Give myself a task, a problem to solve. One that has to come to completion by the time I return home. All in my...
#125 THE STITCHES CAME OUT TODAY
- TJ
- I don’t usually do this. Put the same post on Derailleur as I do on Derailleur Aesthetic that is. I never want to assume you are reading ‘both sides.’ In this case, I will put...
#124 THE EFFORTLESS GRACE OF SOMEONE WHO OWNS THEIR SPACE
- TJ
- There is something I have become aware of. But on the other hand, maybe I have been aware of it the whole time but not singled it out. Movement. Movement as style. I have singled...
#123 TRY A LITTLE HARDER, TO BE A LITTLE BETTER
- TJ
- I did not come up with that one. Gordon B. Hinckley did. It is a good one. You can apply it to everything and anything. I like it because it really does not ask for...
#122 PROTECT THE DOLLS
- TJ
- There is no other piece of clothing as comfortable as a T-shirt. I have some that are completely restricted to hanging on a hanger. The remainder I keep in my dresser. Third drawer down. Neatly...
#121 YOU DO NOT KNOW THE NAME OF THE STORE
- TJ
- It happens when you do not expect it to. You are not even shopping. You are just doing your thing. Riding from ‘A’ to ‘B.’ Or simply out for a ride. You are at a...
#120 THIS IS ALL I WANT
- TJ
- I go through these phases. Some of them I know are just a phase. They just have a certain feel to them. I just go with it. But there are others that I know are...
#119 BUT IF YOU WANT A BREATH OF FRESH AIR?
- TJ
- I am not sure what kind of relationship you have with Instagram. I try and keep mine as ‘healthy’ as possible. Know when to visit and know when to leave. Keep it at arm’s length....
#118 THE ART OF TAKING IT SLOW
- TJ
- It is an art. It takes lots of time and effort to master. Things do not have to be done fast. Everything is not a race. It is a hard mindset to get out of....
#117 BUY BETTER, BUY LESS
- TJ
- I hold off now. I used to find something in a store I liked, and five minutes later, I was walking out the door with it. It was the same with online. Come across something...
#116 A PRIVATE ACT OF SELF-RESPECT
- TJ
- You know? You gotta do what you gotta do. ‘Do’ in the sense of what keeps you going. Positive. Happy. Good. There are some things you ‘do’ that are in the open. Family recognizes them....
DERAILLEUR
THERE IS ANOTHER WAY TO RIDE
- admin
- No matter what you do, there are rules, formalities, etiquette, and customs. They are there to show you ‘how things are done.’ But ‘how things are done’ can change and should change. No sport in...

1:00 PM TO 5:00 PM
- TJ
- I am going to go back a few years. Lots of years. University days. I met a girl on campus the very first day. We have been friends ever since. She is one of those...
THE STITCHES CAME OUT TODAY
- TJ
- I have been doing well with my weekly posts. Not for the last little while though. I am sorry about that. I had to take a little time off. I went down. To be honest,...
WHO ARE YOU OFF YOUR BIKE?
- TJ
- I see you on my rides, but we never stop and talk. We should. You are easy to spot. You beat to your own drum.. The unique lean into a turn. The casual swing...
A PAINTBRUSH, A PEN, OR ON THE ROAD
- TJ
- Every so often I get ‘stuck.’ It can be with anything. It is not a case of having no motivation. It is more that I do not know what my next move will be. I...
PRESENCE
- TJ
- ‘The ride adjusts you. You do not adjust the ride.’ I truly do not know how I came up with that one. I have always been perplexed about understanding the difference. The difference between riding...
WHEN I RIDE, I AM SWIMMING
- TJ
- I get concerned when I start to write that I am doing the ‘moi, moi, moi,’ thing. I want to stress that this is never the case. And it will never be the case. It...
NO REACTION
- TJ
- Newton’s Third Law of Motion. ‘For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.’ I am going to prove him wrong. It is not necessarily that I want to prove him wrong. It is...
THE ESSENCE OF FLOW
- TJ
- SINGLE SPEED VS THE PEOPLE, [2025] S.C.R 172 (Can.). IN THE COURT OF CYCLING PHILOSOPHY Case No. 2025-SSB-0428 THE PEOPLE (Representing Gears) vs. THE SINGLE-SPEED BIKE (Defendant, Representing Simplicity and Flow AKA ME) Filed: April...
OFFLINE ALGORITHM
- TJ
- This is really cool. This is really cool because it really works. Profoundly. The reason I know it works? I did it. I was the ‘Lab Rat.’ I don’t need to get into explaining...
NEXT TIME
- TJ
- My bike makes a different sound. It seems to be a sound that dogs pick up on. Dogs seem to have a way of picking up on odd things. It is something I have been...
LEMON AIDED
- TJ
- I am not sure about something. Do I ride because I love to ride, or do I ride because I love the things that ‘happen’ when I ride? The things that have nothing to do...
