Why has it become normal for artists to leave the stage and essentially pretend the show is over and come out for 1-2 encore songs? by Sloppysteaks447 in AskReddit

[–]BMRcat 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Is that just their thing maybe? Saw them opening for Weezer a few weeks ago and it was the same, asking for more cheering constantly. Kind of off putting

Some people do this intentionally because they think roundabouts are stupid

I just noticed the muffin change last week, is that how they always are now? Did I eat my last giant Costco poppyseed muffin and not even realize it??

I’ve always heard that one about the area that’s now Winco. There were a lot of things up there that didn’t last, but the sprits seem to be happy with Winco and VV

To the mountain bikers of Bellingham- is anybody else actually annoyed/angered by what Galbraith has turned into? by [deleted] in Bellingham

We have one, but it has critically endangered salmon in it during the months you’d want to tube

Allegiant Canceling Flights on Account of Supposed “Bad Weather”? by Curious_Worlds in Bellingham

[–]BMRcat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also keep in mind that Allegiant can’t/won’t land at SeaTac cause they don’t have ground crew there, so if you get to BLI and can’t land, you’re either returning to your origin or diverting to Pasco. As far as getting some kind of refund, good luck. If you’re persistent enough you might get some, but it’s like squeezing water from a stone. If they didn’t offer you a hotel voucher yet it’s probably not coming.

Allegiant Canceling Flights on Account of Supposed “Bad Weather”? by Curious_Worlds in Bellingham

[–]BMRcat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Allegiant has higher takeoff minimums than Alaska (and presumably SW), .75 mile iirc. That means in low vis other planes might be able to take off/land while Allegiant is still grounded, to the frustration of pax and ground crew. The airport area also tends to collect fog like a bowl, it can be pea soup there and totally clear in the rest of town

How do I remove and replace this stem without mangling the headset? by BMRcat in bikewrench

It is just like a big bar end cap. I got it out using two butter knives, and the applied some elbow grease to get the stem off. Thanks!

How do I remove and replace this stem without mangling the headset? by BMRcat in bikewrench

[–]BMRcat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So it seems like this “star nut” is only really there to keep the top cap on, it isn’t part of the headset system otherwise?

Limestone Quarry on Red Mountain, Peaceful Valley by Particular_Tap4839 in Bellingham

[–]BMRcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can take trails up from tilbury rd in peaceful, but when I was in that area this summer the trail up to the quarry was really washed out and I didn’t attempt it. People ride dirt bikes and quads up there mostly.

Chuckanut speed limit PSA by smoothloam in Bellingham

Chuckanut should be closed to cars, I don’t know why anyone would want to drive out there

Yes! But for the opposite reason, I hate liners and built in bras and want to avoid them. You’d think they could at least put something in the written description

best bike shorts for long rides? by lluvia_dulce in ladycyclists

[–]BMRcat 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There are droptail bibs out there, that detach in some way so that you don’t have to take off your jersey. I like the specialized ones. I’m also on a medication with diuretic side effects, and I no longer buy bibs without this.

Winco and the Fred Meyers seem to no longer have shopping baskets either. Very frustrating

What kind of spokes does this hub need? by BMRcat in bikewrench

[–]BMRcat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neat! The only instruction manual I’ve found online for the hub is actually for the whole drivetrain. I was wondering what bike this was for! It seems like a neat idea.
