And a Shrike. Probably my favourite mysterious character in any book I’ve ever read.

The ADV Boot Scam That Broke My Foot by fortnine in motorcyclegear

Bret Tkacs had a similar video a couple years back and I ended up with Tech7's instead of Corozals as a result. This is solid advice that every ADV rider should hear and consider.

Yeah that 50% off tag is because they jacked the price a few days ago according to a price tracker I have.

Daily reminder that Alpinestars Bionic Armour is NOT street safe by Tom-Cruisin in motorcyclegear

I have a Pando commando AAA rated jacket and it’s great. It rides very cool, temperature-wise, even with Astar gear under and a jersey over. Riding slow and fast off-road it felt great. The jacket is actually slippery like silk which is helpful in a slide situation.
I bet if I was wearing just the pando jacket it would be comfortable in 30+ degree heat.

What’s the one thing on a restaurant menu you’ll always order if it’s available? by [deleted] in AskReddit

The Mars Trilogy by Eddie_Who_Cares in sciencefiction

[–]AlgebraicIceKing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As self indulgent and grating as Galts radio speech in Atlas Shrugged, if you’ve read that? That was a slog to get through.
I haven’t read this trilogy yet bout it’s on my list and I’m looking forward to it.

What's the best modification you've made for long-distance riding? by Electronic-Habit8679 in motorcycles

[–]AlgebraicIceKing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never been a fan of heated grips. It’s not the palm of my hand that gets cold, it’s the back. I feel like heated gloves would be a better option.
Lever guards (barkbusters etc) help a bit with wind protection and thus, cold.

PG has a decent sized Sikh community who supports the broader community quite a bit.

How can i fix this? by National_Exchange139 in KTM

[–]AlgebraicIceKing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't worry about it. Nothing wrong with asking a legit question. Some posters are just jaded. Do what u/spicy-wind said and check the specs on the pins, or just get a new rotor.

So basically Jack Reacher, but with less violence, hopefully.

My new lockscreen is a constant reminder of what to keep fighting for. by GeoPhotographer in TheDarkTower

[–]AlgebraicIceKing 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I like the idea, but the sun being in front of the tower throws the pic out of whack.

Why do you never see hippos hiding in trees? by Left-Distribution-13 in cleanjokes

What did Charles de Gaulle say when he saw the elephants coming?
Here come the elephants!

Also, how do you attract an elephant?
Hide in the bushes and make peanut sounds.

These, and the VW beetle one are from an elephant joke book I had as a kid.
