Shit post Haiku: Shit posts eight comments, Maybe thinks more is better, Futile exercise

Then pretend you are actually better than whoever responds in a passive aggressive manner as if you planned it all along like a evil genius And just giggle with while petting your cat and commenting how easy it is to dupe all us fools. Then when we respond just say " See.. so easy" Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Maybe that is key. I'll defer to your sole-wrenching experience lest I come across as a heel.

Thanks for coming. That will be all. PS. Bring back Bartman! He at least made me laugh...

The only thing that should be different between a 142 hub and a 135 hub from the King should be the axle, no? Shouldn’t you be able to swap freehub bodies between the two hubs? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Weather Underground <wunderground.com> has a new graphic presentation of relative humidity on the 10-day forecast; I'd really not noticed it before. Lately when I ride to the gym in the morning, I'm instantly soaked in sweat while locking up my bike, like, "I really need to take a shower before working out" sweaty. Looking at the graphic, relative humidity peaks about 92% at 8 am and then continues to drop slowly to about 30% around 6 pm, so mystery solved. Yesterday, the mercury thermometer in the shade on my front porch peaked at 107 degrees. A record high of 103 was recorded at Camp Mabry. It still has not rained at my house since sometime in July. Those pop-up thunderstorms here and there have missed us completely. Forecast shows a wee bit cooling at the beginning of the week, with some chance of rain.

Imagine what it'd be like to have to know him in person.

When have you ever posted “one comment”?

Enjoy. A mere 99 degrees with dewpoint in the 70s here in Centex today.

Yes and yes. Waiting for women's finals now. Track is insane

For those who prefer a smooth IPA, this is a good one to try!

This may turn out to be a VERY informative thread!

@Anita Handle we need the "show us where Walnut hurt you" meme please.

Ahhh, I only have one person on the entire internet on ignore, and it's a person here. Bartman can be a bit rough, but he's real. No reason to block him.

I still have the original Thor's Hammer of racks - a Thule T2 with two-bike add-on. It weighs in at a modest 300 pounds, and is a thing of great beauty. It's more-or-less permanently on loan - I think Seth even borrowed it once, and couldn't break it.

And BOOM goes the dynamite!

I’m a former Raxter owner. Used it for 5 years. I agree with much of what RF has to say; however mine did have some shortcomings. The velcro straps did degrade and have to be replaced. Also, those nylon arms didn’t hold up to off-road use. I take some 4wd rodes at times and on rough sections when there is side to side rocking motion, the bikes would push the arms open. I’d have to stop while on the trail and push them back as they are held in place with friction at the pivot points. Trays are parallel and this sometimes made fitting bikes on difficult. Also, mine did fold up and so I couldn’t keep on the truck for garage parking. Purchased 1Up double heavy duty a few years ago and couldn’t be happier. Those problems were solved as well as having improved departure angle given the stacked height of the rearmost 1Up tray.

LOL, dudes having a biggest/best rack measuring contest.

But...what about Chris Squire?

Looking at that rack...I had an idea. I have an old biking buddy who has become an old acquaintance. He moved to the great northwest and we lost touch, but every now and then we think of an excuse to communicate. Anyway, last time we talked he mentioned that he just started working for a company who makes mass transit bike racks. So when I saw that rack...I thought...maybe. So I LinkedIn'd the fellow's name, and checked out his company's website. And wouldn't you know it: https://www.sportworks.com/product/apex-3

Photos of "The Short Bus" used on Santa Fe RTD 255 Mountain Trail Route I had searched trying to find more info on the rack capacity for this bus has and couldn't find a photo. So, decided to take a few and put them out on the Interwebz for others. Twelve bikes total, 3 front, 3 rear, 6 inside. See the previous post for details on how you too can use this bus to torture yourself.

Columbia Omni-Freeze Zero update. I've worn these shirts now in humid CenTex while chain sawing and stacking wood in 90-100 degrees and high humidity, where the shirt moved the sweat away quickly and didn't saturate, cling, or drip. Compared with the day before, wearing another Columbia button up wicking shirt that just held sweat. Now, further testing by the Ridenfool Institute of General Foolishness has been conducted in arid New Mexico where the cooling effect has been most noticeable while riding in the high desert where it made an aggressive day ride much more comfortable than it otherwise would have been. I'm hooked on these in long sleeves for Summer wear providing shade and relief from sweat build up. For more detail on the official Santa Fe test ride, click here.
