Absolutely. All I can hope for is the opportunity to watch it all go away. And my question for our virtue signaling LT governor is : would you suck a dick for the economy Dan? How much do you love the free market? It's just one dick Dan.

With help like this who could ask for anything more. Trillion dollar bailouts for big business and bootstraps for the people. #letitallcollapse

Funny you mention that. We were all just joking about how our kids have opened our eyes to things we've been saying that are now considered inappropriate. Two weeks ago my 16 y/o was calling covid the "Boomer remover". Not as virtuous as they'd like to see themselves. We had a discussion about this😑

And in the U.K. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2020/mar/20/government-pay-wages-jobs-coronavirus-rishi-sunak

Good to know. They will get our business when passing through😎

expecting a failed businessman to not run the country into the ground is living in absolute denial. That was Bush II Now we have this bitch in charge

Irony in it's purest form. On a positive note, Prince Charles has it.

I've seen some of what your referencing and its just insane. But we don't need to look much further than behavior of our "leader" and whats going on with his pissing match with Cuomo and the lives it will cost in NY. We americans tend look down our noses at other countries only to find this experiment is no different.

100% Going back to spirits. Bone Spirits in Smithville was one of the few who actually produced their own mash from local sources and distilled on site. From what I understand they lost their founding distiller and have recently shifted to production of base spirits for other companies and dropped most of their line from any distribution. Back to the coronapocalypse

Very, very few actually "produce" anything. Most just buy the base spirit and age/blend/bottle and slap their decal on it.

30+ % vinegar is not messing around in the least. It's basically acid and failing that, nothing survives salt

Buddy of mine had one of those cyclocross boobikes. It was so bizarre .

Love me some old school 30-30

Had bamboo and won't go near Roundup much less give Bayer any of my money. I chopped it and did a scorched Earth cocktail of 30% vinegar and salt.

At this point, we're such dogshit as a country we "can't" even equip our first responders and medical workers, much less every citizen. What a fucking disgrace.

Wife and I have been home for almost two weeks. She works for the state and once they sent her home, I just followed suit. All of her work is being conducted through zoom and she follows her normal work schedule, taking breaks for 30-45 minute walks together. I clean, tinker around the house and talk shit on AMB until her work is done. We just set the bikes up for sidewalk/road duty and we're getting some rides in around the neighborhood. No trails. As far as school goes, some districts have some items and best practices on their websites. My oldest is home from texas tech and is doing everything online for the foreseeable future. P.S. The dog has never been happier.

All above can be substituted with the phrase "shit rigged" or "shit rigging". easy as pie🤐

he doesn't have half the balls Budd did.

19 & 16 y/o daughters and a wife who works in education. I've also had to temper some of my language as things i thought were completely benign were really offensive to them. Outside on the street, I just double up on my use of profanity to make up for it😆

Ive heard of a couple issues with their cassettes as well but haven't used one. I suppose if weight is someones biggest priority they would be a good option. Ive had such good luck with the aftermarket sunrace SCMX cassettes I will probably stick with them. The biggest thing that I liked about Garbaruk was the cages. Now i have an option to replace the cages on my derailleurs instead of throwing them in a box for spare parts. Also, people who invetibly damge the cage on their eagle 12spds have some options too. Used to order a lot of stuff from bike-discount out of europe and all was good as long as it went through SF or NYC ports. If it ended up in Chicago, god help you. Had an order also disappear from there as well.

Hey, i resemble that epithet 🤣

and then theres texas You first shitdick and take all of your ilk with you. What a twat

Chief is your subject matter expert on this one

Since covid has us all a bit spun, figured I'd post some tech I did today trying to solve an issue that is probably very, very isolated. Found out the hard way in Arkansas that the chain on my bike was too short and snapped the rear derailleur leaving me on my second day at the DH park riding chainless. What I hadn't taken into consideration was the 28MM of rearward axle path at full stuff on a high pivot. The issue is the bike was designed around a 10-42 cassette and I'm currently running an 11-46, and the chain was either too short in the 46t under compression, or too long in the 11t at ride height. This was with a shimano M8000 and X1 medium cage derailleurs. The solution was to either go to a long cage 11spd or just bite the bullet and do a 12spd derailleur. I had already ditched shimano and went back to sram by purchasing an X1 shifter and derailleur. I also really didn't want to run a GX eagle on a 27.5 just to get torn off by a rock. I ended up buying a garbaruk billet cage that is compatible with up to 50t cassettes and also some larger pulleys to take up some additional slack. After getting it all installed took it out for a spin the extra 13mm in cage length resolved my chain issues. Now, the bike is just hanging on the wall waiting for the human plague to blow over. I would definitely recommend Garbaruk for people looking to add some deeper gears to their MTB or road drivetrains. https://www.garbaruk.com/
