Sweet. I never liked stopping and climbing out at the bridge anyway.

Agree with Mack. Kali fits my head great but not his. Go with what fits. A clip/mount for lights or a camera is super nice to have. My Smith doesn't have anything and I'm going to have to figure out how to add lights soon.

Seeing lots of activity from people I know over in MMSP. I've never been over there and I've got the FOMO. I know how to get to the railroad bridge and I know I go north along that and take a turn east somewhere. Other than that I'm blind. The only experience I have with MMSP is the disk golf course and the RC field. Seems like the trails are mostly south of that on the creek?

A snow globe, a bag of bugles, and forceps.

I'm going to need a hotwheels car, some starburst, and a coconut.

Raining all over the SATN right now. I was hoping that this shower would move on quickly. A little worried about this weekend possibilities.

Yeah I went full commit and tried to launch up the rock but ended up sending my head straight into the branch. I think my visor was down for the late day sun and I just forgot it was there. At least my spine was aligned and I didn't torque anything but I heard the helmet give up its ghost and I went straight home as a precaution. Rode all of 10 minutes that day.

I'm still a fat 0 on that last stonewall obstacle. I was doing a lot of attempts until I cracked my helmet on that low branch. I might have to leave that box un-ticked permanently.

What does The Tip's search history look like after finding that photo? What other wonders did that search return? Hello MrTheCatLady, I'm just here to comment on photos of naked dudes. I have no sage advice for you on falling theory other than I feel like I fall an average amount for the risks I'm willing to take. I do pass on features I think I have the skill for but have higher penalties for failure. I feel lucky to have not broken any important pieces when I do fall. Just a few stitches, some sprains, and rib injuries over the last few years. I too have done the splits in road cleats on a wet road before.

So confusing watching that video. It says it's an A320 but I know a Southwest taxi when I see it.

Excess cornstarch in the brake fluid and now you have a non newtonian fluid. Reduce your cornstarch levels to below the manufacturer recommended amount. /s

I had one of these from around that time. It was blue and I rode the hell out of that thing on all sorts of stuff I would only take the big bike on these days.

Still didn't bring rain but I'll keep trying by adding bikes to the garage. Behold the wife's (new) MTB: Don't at me about the pedals. I don't ride flats and this is all I had for her.

Agree, lots of variables. Seated or attack position, bar sweep, level of terrain, # of balls... I can say I've messed with my brake position in the last year to get more comfortable and I have mine pointed pretty far down on my XC hardtail and not as much on the trail bike. @Kobra Kai MTB Guy Sorry to hear about the tendinitis and missing rides.

Wahoo updated their Kickr trainer to have smart feet. Now with real wobble feel™ https://www.wahoofitness.com/devices/bike-trainers/kickr/buy

This opened up last week. Huge news for the neighborhood but yeah bikes don't care. It looks like they are close to having all the signs and sidewalks done. I've ridden across it a few times now on the wrong side of the cones to stay separate from the cars. 👍

Yup my understanding is that this is normal but I'm not an electrician. I would mostly be cautious about older houses with full aluminum wiring and any breaker panels made by Federal Pacific.

Nuke the whole site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

Also if you eat broccoli on a rest stop and get some stuck in your teeth...

That brings up a good question: When riding through fire and hot coals are you guys weighting your front wheel or back wheel? I just don't feel like I am getting traction cornering through a burning forest.

I thought it was being pumped into the stadium but each team might be doing something different. Some are more noticeable than others for sure. I didn't notice on opening day until I watched a Mets game.

Been watching a lot of baseball. I don't like the cardboard fans. The noise doesn't bother me much. I can't help but wonder who has the job of controlling the fan noise. And how do you get that job. Is it the organist? The TV production staff? I would think it's from the stadium staff for the home team. I have so many questions. Cant find the article now but somebody bought like a whole section of those virtual fan cardboard cutout things. You could have some fun with that.

I never wore a helmet as a kid. So let that be a lesson to all. I should do one of those scared straight programs going from cafeteria to cafeteria haranguing children about the dangers of ending up in financial analytics middle management.

And now Evil Corp has even more funding for their next attack. (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

Ok that makes sense. I heard the ATV driving around but never saw it. The wife and kids heard it from our backyard and asked me what was going on when I got back from my ride. That last corner corner is treacherous. It's one of the few places you need to slow down. Gravel from the parking lot runs off and builds up in that turn and you never know who will be on the path past the curve. People exiting from the far right without notice other people entering from the parking lot. Sketch corner for sure.
