I only started watching MotoGP in 2013 so I missed most of 46's prime - that said, the Rossi/Marquez years felt a lot like the Prost/Senna years of my childhood. Extremely compelling stuff. I'm pretty sure that even people who claim(ed) to hate Rossi for sticking around too long are secretly...

I wanna add: DO NOT buy a cheap aftermarket shim kit, they are garbage. Figure out what you need then source/order OEM shims.

I just finished it. Enjoyed all three seasons. It's very silly but totally self-aware, and the commentary about relationships and marriage is surprisingly earnest despite the silliness. The actress who played Love is a standout IMO. She made the actress who played his first girlfriend...

It might be a stock/generic image on the product page. I have the same cap for my FJ and the stem is quite a bit shorter. Works great.

I did a quick setup on it today with my track shoes on. Saddle is carbon and was borrowed from one of my road bikes. I know my saddle height from getting a quick fit at the velodrome, and I've set up the bars how I like them. Now, as far as the ideal fore/aft position of the saddle goes, I...

Got my own track bike today, an older alloy-framed, carbon-forked Aquila. Gonna take it to the velodrome on Friday for my first Intermediate session. 🥳🥳

Like many people his age, OP seems stuck between his need for peer/family validation and his own actual desires. The humblebrag content seems more like a way to balance out the negativity. I dare say that we all go through that phase. I was working at a law firm in my mid to late 20s and every...

lol, I'm not totally opposed to it, just a bit wary. I kinda want one along with a copy of the latest NHL and Gran Turismo to keep us busy during sh1tty weather weekends. I mostly have an issue with the mindless CoD and online poker *lifestyles* (which tend to overlap quite a bit IME).

But there's hockey on TV.

I was a big gamer as a teen and young adult, and in hindsight it was 100% *caused* by depression/anxiety. Playing the guitar is what saved me from what I now largely consider to be a waste of time. I'll play a few games of NHL with cousins and nephews at Christmas, that's it. I don't restrict...

Squid Game was aight. Lead actor guy was good. The premise is kind of tired though, and the final twist was telegraphed way early on. Still enjoyable. 7.25 Matt Rains out of a possible 10

Yes! I have the same one. Very useful for cramped spots.

-Long swivel head 3/8" ratchet (Princess Auto has some decent ones) -Long flex head 3/8" ratchet (I have an SK which is my fave ratchet ever) -Extra long hex sockets -Shallow, regular, deep and extra deep 3/8" sockets Repeat for 1/2" (regular handles) and 1/4" (extra long handles) I don't know...

Hehe, this is all very new to me, still navigating my way through all this gear and fitness stuff. I spent most of my 42 years on this planet in a completely sedentary and doughy state. I was over 240lbs back in March, now 190. I lost most of the weight prior to getting on a bike though - I'm...

Nice! I may be wrong but I think tubulars and glue are still widely used at the international level. My rental bike came with cheap Michelin clinchers. Ima need to get or build my own bike before long - I have the genetic makeup of a sprinter and the rental bikes are geared for endurance (48/16)...

I know. Makes no sense to me, but I think it's because I have a horrible sense of direction so using myself as a frame of reference is my default mode. Left is my dominant hand side. The end.

That's the main issue - many people think you want them to move, when most of the time, you're just warning them that you're about to pass them and you simply don't want them to act unpredictably. There should be a convention like at the track, where you yell "stick!" to warn someone you're...

Exactly this

Anyone can easily hit 20km/h, even my 7yo son on his 20"-wheeled bike. An untrained person on a road bike can easily hit and maintain 25-30. The issue with bells is that they're typically not loud enough, and most pedestrians don't initially pay attention to them, either because the cyclist is...

Going back to the track tomorrow to start the certification process. Looking forward to getting more saddle time and pushing a bit harder, after getting acquainted with the weirdness of a fixie (I'd never ridden one before)
