There is a great article looking at how MTV represented folks with different races. Sounds like the YingYang twins episode fits the narrative. ...

You obviously didn’t see the one with the YingYang twins. Their house is in some middle class ATL suburb that looks just like the one I grew up in...

Thank God. For a second there I was worried you were characterizing US economic trends based on television shows. On an aside, I was watching MTV...

In the various watch places I browse on the web it’s very rare to see a pic of a watch on a non-white persons arm. Maybe I’m just not looking in...

Better call a doctor.

I think I’ve shaken them. No contact or solicitations of any sort for years here.

You will never escape your college/university alumni association.

I wish I had more money than sense. That's my aspiration, by the way.

I don't know if this has been said, but consider what other ex-pats are moving there too. I can't speak of various countries mentioned, but we all...

As Rich said, fiddle with it a little more and you can probably get there on the ramp and tilt of the bar. Same bar here:

Maybe I should just let you figure it out.

I feel like COVID enforcement has reached TSA levels: different standards and levels of enforcement compliance locale to locale.

This is sarcasm, right? ...right?

Look at where my levers are (were) on this - same bar, same lever shape: You would shorten your reach significantly if you did the same; and...

Yeah, because reality TV shows are such a realistic depiction and the million dollar plus housing market is definitely majority under 30. I'm out...

I used to race 1/10th electric buggies back in my mid-teens before I discovered bikes. Club champ 3-years in succession. Kyosho Lazer ZX-R was my...

You're actually out of touch with the world, or at least the USA. It's not all old rich white guys buying this stuff, there is new money out there...

It always amazes me to watch someone who really has a knack for something they choose to do.

Stunning metal work.

I race on road and off road. Raced at the World Championships last year.

He popped into my Instagram the other day and I watched a YT video shop tour. Amazing work and amazing shop with surprisingly simple tooling

Nice. I had an S gauge layout as a kid (my grandfather had a small business doing S gauge mail order). The trains were great but the availability of...

I like the minimal graphics.

I agree. Omloop was just kind of meh. The presenters kept commenting on how strong Alaphilippe was, but he just looked hyperactive to me. If his...

Just managed to wrestle a new set of carbon wheels onto my wife's bike. Pretty sure I did the brakes correctly. We'll see I guess!

I re-learned 180's this summer, took me forever. did get to the point where I can do them clipped in on my 29'er though. I would like a bit more...

And 30 seconds with some tweezers sorted out the holes that hadn't been pushed out - they were punched all the way through, just needed lifted out.

This is 100% spot on. I've lived in Southern Europe, and even there, you go through exactly this process. Efficiency or getting things done (I'm...

Dynamo all the way, if you are planning to spend some cash. I am planning a new bike and a nice alloy wheelset based on Onyx hubs. Since the front...

We spent last weekend at Lutsen in northeastern Minnesota. Tickets were two day minimum, and Saturday was a blackout for season ticket holders. It...

HO. Just getting back into it; loved it as a kid. My mom still insists on sending me a check for my birthday every year so this year I turned it...

I think that might have been a case of getting in the necessary training stress into his legs. He was supposed to have seven racing days at the UAE...

Interesting to see how both weekend cobbled races turned out. Disappointed to see OHN end in a sprint, but props to Mads for his ride in KBK. Good...
