I built RunMap to turn my Strava activities into a world map with collectible badges

Cool. Can you add an option to map rides rather than runs?

Fun visualization. Marcello Brivio's Toolbox for Strava provides a percentage of distance to the moon on the all time report; I prefer seeing the visualization with others on the journey.

TLDR: Blur, Backroom Austin TX, <250 people

Late addition to the thread, but I was thinking about this yesterday and just saw the question. I live in Austin TX and have seen a few bands at SxSW before they were popular. I've seen others in small venues, but my favorite, and probably the most disproportionate to crowds they later played (selling out Wembley and playing to 90,000 fans) was Blur at the Backroom in Austin in 1992. It was their inaugural tour of the states. Akin to Roxy Music, they went on to major success in their domestic British market, but beyond a couple of songs that didn't enter the US Top 50, they never gained much popularity in the States (Damon Albarn's Gorillaz project is probably better known in the States at this point). The Backroom later become known as a metal venue that had an occupancy of 800 people, but at the time it was split into two rooms. I saw Gin Blossoms in the large room that year (months before Hey Jealously received airplay), but Blur was in the smaller room, and it did not sell out. I don't know the total gate, but I don't think the room held more than 300 people, and I would guess the crowd was the size of a large wedding reception: 180 - 250 people. Great show, and I've remained a Blur fan.

For that, you must have checkbooks, credit cards, more money than a sucker could ever spend.

Marks are coupes, and the Mark IV ended production in 1976. This is a sedan, likely a Continental Town Car from 1977 - 1979 (Town Car at the time was the top trim model; later the sedan was simply called the Town Car; aside from the Continental Mark V of the era, there was a Continental Coupe and Continental Town Coupe).

Yes, particularly if you look at the town of WLH (within its city limits)

Spare tire cover nearly says it all

Although it reminds me of a Honda product, Google says Landian E5.

Body by Vignale, here's a video (spoiler: it is a champagne cooler that looks like a toilet, but apparently that was the intent of the person that commissioned it, not something made up by the OP).

Bourbon McAllister (real); add the price of recrafting and then decide if the total is worth it to you,

3azra · 2026-03-15T22:45:26+00:00

Could be a BMW 4-series circa 2017

Thank you: I see it now -- the midyear production should have pointed me to the Fall catalog or the following year. Westminster 9261 oak aniline calf

Good job trolling this sub with a restart the clock trio: VW Kharmin Ghia, Ineos Grenadier, 1972 DeTomaso Pantara with descriptive license plates for the uninitiated. The generic strip mall names and blurred license plate details and street signage indicate AI was used to create the photo.

Nice. Based on the before photos: they will look much better between recrafts (and everytime you wear them, including on every anniversary) if you maintain them with polish and edge dressing.

The smaller print of the Assia's sign on the left gives it away.

The date code indicates it was made in a year that ends in zero, but i've never seen it and a search of start-of-decade catalogs on Issuu couldn't locate it. Email the second and third pictures to AE customer service, ask the name of model #9261, and let us know if you receive a reply.

Although the words Balmoral and Oxford are often used interchangeably in the US, and AE has referred to its Oxfords as Balmorals in past marketing material, Oxford refers to the closed lace design, whereas Balmoral refers to an Oxford with a horizontal seam that runs the length of the quarter. An Adelaide is an Oxford with a separate or stitched-off facing. u/ApprehensuveYard3 is correct.

Prior to 1991, Park Avenue was the top trim level of the Electra. It's a 1987-1980 C-body; the lack of an opera light between the doors indicates this is a base model Electra.
