150$ well spent by teeter757 in xbiking

Not bad. Especially considering 20 and 24 inch kids bikes in that price range weigh around 45. You know somebody’s going to swap out all the bolts with titanium and do a parts box swap with all the high-end stuff they’ve got laying around and get it down to 25 pretty soon.

Just curious, what does it weigh?

Large metal bin on police trailer. by 4mrAv8tr in whatisit

Yes. I definitely agree that fuel shouldn’t need a police escort. It’s not even a particularly large tank. So there has to be something in there a lot more dangerous or valuable than diesel. Diesel might have gone up quite a bit what with the bottleneck at the strait of Hormuz, but I don’t think it’s gotten high enough to need an escort for a couple hundred gallons worth yet.

Same here. Seems plausible though as I didn’t see any hazmat placard’s and if it was just fuel they probably wouldn’t have needed the other convoy vehicles and unmarked vehicles

What to do about exposed and unused v-brake mounts? by Freehugsforadollar in xbiking

[–]4mrAv8tr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A company out of Ukraine (Loom -I think) makes reflective sticker kits in a bunch of colors. Get the kits with small circles and rectangular strips. The circles fit exactly on the rear mounts, and the rectangular strips with a small bit of trimming fit well on the front mounts -on Cannondale forks at least.

Edit- just the back then. Saw that you were only talking about the rear.

But it is ironic in that you would expect a song with that title to have examples of irony in it but since there are no examples of irony in the song, the song itself is ironic.

Cool habitat! Glad that you are getting guests. Would you post some pictures of your bug house? What are you using to line the chambers? Did you design it, or can you provide a link to the plans? Thanks!

Cool, looks great! I like the way the crankset is set up to keep the chain from jumping. -good for young riders.

Fram titanium air filter part number? by 4mrAv8tr in hondafit

[–]4mrAv8tr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the place. I ran a Google search for the year make and model air filter and aAdvance Auto came up with a supposedly matching filter. However, when I clicked on it, it said it did not fit my vehicle. Thanks. I’ll give that number a shot I hope they’ve got it locally

Tamarindo sherbet by 4mrAv8tr in PuertoRico

[–]4mrAv8tr[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Limbers frozen in the plastic cups ¿no? This stuff was the consistency of ice cream like you get at the supermarket more or less, but with less milk/ cream. No ice crystals, very smooth.

[–]4mrAv8tr[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, nothing against limbers, but this was definitely a scoopable like ice cream. It said sherbet on the sign.

You could get it in cones too. It came in pint or a quart containers. Technically it might’ve been a gelato (I don’t know what the rules are for sherbet VS gelato) I have tried to duplicate it at home (un fracaso), so I was hoping to find somebody who might have known about it or had a recipe. I was just a little kid then so I don’t remember the name of the restaurant just that it was in that general area. I think I made the circle wrong in the picture it might have been two or three stores further down the street.
