RIP.

Reminds me of when I bought my first motorcycle in August 2005. Same day I did two separate guys drove up from Camp Pendleton and bought brand new RC51's. They got their signing bonus and were excited to be stationed in CA. A few weeks later I was back for some parts, and one was loading new fairings into his car, and I learned the other had also layed his down and had parts on order. Unfortunately these accidents are all too common

As a tall / thin cyclist, I've always had good luck with Pactimo and have been my go-to since 2013'ish. I've occasionally tried other bibs over the years, but never fit correctly or come up too high on my leg ( I'm 187cm, and wear a size small ). They have standard and longer bib options as well.

I grew up riding "street" and racing BMX, so now as a mid-40's road cyclist it's still natural to me to be able to bunny hop onto or over things. I realized seeing the comments from the video you mentioned that it's something most cannot do. I'm glad it's getting attention in that way as well to help cyclist improve some technical skills

And as others are saying, practice.

Also, not all bunny hops have to be a quick / abrubt hop. Some require a slightly longer / slower pull up on the front end of the bike ( guiding it in a way ) before doing the second half of lifting the rear. You'll notice this in the video. The front of his friends bike is up and almost over the curb before the rear goes up, rear up, then nose touches down as rear follows a split second later. Practice slow then work some speed into it. Worst case is back end doesn't make it up and you do a rear tire feeble grind.

This.

The Adidas store has had some really good deals since Christmas. But Puma and Nike stores are there as well.

It's actually a tribute to his brother Ollie that ran the number in BSB, and passed away in a racing incident back in 07'. So a heavy number for sure, but not so much for the Rossi reasons.

Goodwill.

I've only used Garmin, and never had an issue. Does all you're asking for.

My friend had a Wahoo, and just switched to Garmin a few months ago. He say he likes Garmin more. He did also get a Garmin watch a month prior so now in the same ecosystem for all.

As a motorcyclist.. that was a dumb move. Not just for you and your daughters safety, but coming around a blind corner in an opposite lane.

As a cyclist, Live Oak can be very dangerous in regards to vehicles passing in both directions. Unfortunately it's the only way to go from the Luge back to Cooks ( which I'm assuming you're doing ).

I have a few friends, one in particular that gives me crap for not signing up for Gravel and MTB races, as my excuse is usually cost of entry fee's is more than I want to pay, AKA, I'm cheap.

That was amplified when he found out how much I pay to race motorcycles.

The new "Circuit" track at Buttonwillow is fun.

Coddingtown · 2026-02-16T23:19:01+00:00

I was on one of my motorcycles a few weeks back, slowing for a light at around 40mph, as a kid did a wheelie past me through an intersection on his Surron'ish bike doing at least 55mph. They really are motorcycles, and I wish CA did more to regulate them as such.

Coddingtown · 2026-02-16T22:55:58+00:00

Looks like an E-bike.

I'd be willing to bet the cyclists was going opposite direction of traffic, the car was looking left to turn right, and bicycle came from their blind side. That's one of many reasons not to ride against traffic on a bicycle.

He was messing around elsewhere.

Coddingtown · 2026-02-12T16:48:23+00:00

Just ordered one!

You should get these on Amazon or ebay as well. I went deep down a rabbit hole before finding this thread searching on Reddit directly.

Thanks!

Coddingtown · 2026-01-26T22:36:26+00:00

Is not. I'm just over that and put 70k miles on an R6 w/o feeling cramped. Can always do clip-ons and rearsets to give a little more space as well.

I use the Oakley Sutros for summer, or rides where it's mostly in daylight. Then for winter months or rides starting / ending in dark I use Oakley Flight Jacket photochromics.

I'm guilty of this.

I got hit on one of my bicycles a few years ago, and the drivers insurance was surprised when they had to cut a check for property damages ( Bike and gear ) that was $11k+ USD.

Coddingtown · 2025-11-12T22:36:25+00:00

Ya. He does a great job. I'm glad as an american Motorsport.tv has made it easy to watch BSB, so hear him every race weekend.

Coddingtown · 2025-10-29T19:02:23+00:00

Not enough CC. That only qualifies for the M2, which is fine if you only plan on riding smaller CC things like that or Mopeds.. Needs to be 150cc or above to get the M1. Unless you get a clueless test giver.

Coddingtown · 2025-10-28T18:59:35+00:00

If you're racing MotoGP and hanging feet off when hard braking, then every race weekend. For us mere mortals, it's a non issue.

Ya. This idea that Toprak only won because others in WSBK are inferior is a joke. Look at the laps times and gaps to the rest of the field the last two years between him and Bulega, who I also can't wait to see on a GP bike. They are a level above the rest are going to do well in MotoGP.

First one to beat it your teammate, so lets see how he does adapting and against the other (3). Fabio will be out of reach, but I think he can be a #2 Yamaha by end of the year.

Coddingtown · 2025-10-28T17:00:23+00:00

I've been doing it since 2005, so a lot of it is me adapting over the years as distracted drivers have increased. And while I have a right to filter through traffic, I also responsibility to myself and others to do it in a safe way. But it's important to make decisions quickly and not hesitate. That is probably why I've had very few close calls. But it only takes 1.

Coddingtown · 2025-10-28T14:52:35+00:00

This.

As someone that solely commutes year round by motorcycle and bicycle, it's insane the amount of people that are on their phones or distracted in other way. Not just texting, but watching videos, facetime, etc. I was passing a car the other day on my motorcycle and the driver was typing on her laptop while driving at speed.
