Yes, lol, I know, I made the post before I met you there =] Did you end up riding anything else after I left?

Yessir, I ride with them. Tall blond guy hiding in some of the pics.

I believe I'm going to be going in the morning. Will try and ride something. Will be on my CBR1000RR.

I would be personally concerned about job stability for both myself and my spouse. Also, eventually for my kids (they could move, but most people will end up staying close-ish to their parents, at least to start).

Chevrolet says "Early 2020". Hard to say what that means in reality, I'd say probably they will start hitting dealers in limited numbers in March/April.

The DCT beat it in pretty much everything other than 0-60. @K20EF8 how did you manage to drive a pair of top tier BMWs? I need more generous friends I guess, haha

ITT: Old people vs Young people. Most people that are dying for a manual either aren't in the market to buy one of these high powered cars with a manual, will drive one and realize it isn't the best transmission for those cars, or the car won't be "pure" enough for them and they'll end up...

It would largely depend on your career. Some places may not work depending on what you do. I’ve done London, KW and Calgary myself. I’d rank the them in this order: Calgary, KW, London. I’m not living out in a small city/town, I can’t handle that, either for my sanity or career.

This one is a bit old and you can get other 1000s for about that. This one also has 26k on it and the RC8R wasn’t known to be the best litre bike on the market (it generally came last in comparison tests). Not sure about reliability. I like the sound of the engine though.

The reality is that most people aren't buying manuals. It has become a niche market, and it's harder to design all of the electronics around a manual rather than the computer-managed transmission. Companies have found that they're not losing sales by dropping them, or at least not enough sales...

I'd go with the FZ/MT 07 or 09. I haven't ridden anything that comes close in fun factor for the amount of money you spend.

You generally need a referral for an appointment to see an ophthalmologist. You can't just call them up, unless you're already an existing patient with them. An optician can't provide a prescription, legally. If one did provide a prescription, they likely were doing some shady **** like having...

You wouldn't be seeing a standard ophthalmologist for laser eye surgery, you'd be going to a clinic that specialized in this sort of work. It may be worth talking to your Optometrist about the work (they may have some advice and will likely be doing some of the follow ups), but you could also go...

It would depend on how bad your prescription is, and the shape of your eye. Some people are better candidates than others (starting prescription, age, lens thickness, etc.). Consultations with laser clinics are typically free, so it would be worth visiting if you're interested and they can let...

My wife had a patient today that was moving to Texas because it was “too expensive to buy a house”. She is an ER Doctor. I guess she wasn’t working hard/smart enough, or should have gotten a “better” job (like a trade) or something, according to the older folks on here. ??‍♂️

There is a lot of missing info here, and I don't know if you're really understanding the point that some people are making. Did you help your kids out with their education and/or living costs? The difference between being able to study while having a job and not having a job is big, and having...

$250K+ is far from normal. You'd have to move to the Bay Area and have considerable experience and/or a nice resume for that. The programmers I work with make ~$100K (I haven't asked for exact details). Your friend is either trying to draw extremely top talent, you're remembering incorrectly, or...

If you can move out of your house with nothing and get into a better position than your parents within 12 years, one or more of the following must be true: your parents weren't very well off, you got very lucky, the system was stacked in such a way that it would be difficult to not succeed. Of...

Is this supposed to be /s? I can't tell.

Any info on available bikes?
