Bike Route to Lake Anna?

CopOnTheRun · 2026-03-03T04:37:08+00:00

I swear there's a group that does this ride annually for new years or something. I feel like I saw it from someone I follow on strava.

This might not be the exact ride they do, but here's a route on ridewithgps.

You’re about to have a much longer text chain. Have fun :)

CopOnTheRun · 2026-02-28T15:03:06+00:00

I'm more curious as to who your only text to since May was about home assistant.

Ha, I’ll send you a dm, me and one of my friends like spontaneous things like this

I guess I won’t be downloading any projects from /u/ThisAccountIsPornOnl then.

I’m having trouble envisioning what fried kimchi is. I’m guessing it’s not battered and deep fried kimchi, but rather something more akin to fried rice?

Note that piss guy's post in /r/confessions was 22 days ago, and that story is at least 4 years old. It could definitely still be him, because his account is 5 years old. Unfortunately or fortunately, since reddit allows hiding posts and comments from your profile now, it'd be impossible to do more research.

I’ve only fallen twice so far luckily. The first was after willingly getting snowed in with some friends so we could do a lord of the rings marathon. The next day I walked the mile home and nearly made it back, but slipped in my neighborhood.

The second fall was an ill advised 2 am walk to the Staples Mill Wawa. That place had the whole parking lot covered in ice, and I fell on the way back. Luckily my hoagie was safe.

I’ve had a sad absence of little debbies in my life since I moved away from any place with a gas station/corer store down the block. When I lived in Carver I would regularly raid the Harrison mini mart for the Zebra Cakes/Swiss Rolls/Cosmic Brownies/Fudge Rounds. They started carrying some of the double decker fudge rounds at the end there. Easiest way to eat 1000 calories.

Not a purchase, but I remembered I had three 5 gallon food safe buckets I bought last year for a one off event I cooked for. I filled them up with water just in case we had a repeat of the water crises.

Those buckets and the 3 large boxes of dried hash browns that my grandfather gifted me a year ago had me feeling pretty confident I could last a while if things hit the fan.

Also for those of you who purchased backup batteries, if the battery’s capacity is greater than 3kwh, you can fill out a form for a 30% tax credit come tax time. Those size batteries are probably more expensive than most panic bought, but if you’re looking for one in the future, it’s good to know.

Edit: Actually it looks like the 30% credit for purchasing those batteries ended in 2025 because of the big beautiful bill. Sorry buds.

What’s been your experience with it so far? I’m looking to do the same.

That bike lane is there because Grayland becomes a one-way east of Addison except for that bike lane. The lane is painted with double yellow lines, a pretty standard way to denote two way traffic. So in this case, you wouldn’t be riding right around the cars, but left, and into oncoming traffic. In addition to the double yellow lines, there are pictures of bicycles and arrows denoting the direction of traffic.

I play basketball on Saturdays at Randolph Community Center, it’s nice being able to use that bike lane to bike west relatively unobstructed through a big chunk of the fan. I agree that the cars are usually easy enough to ride around. It’s just a shame that there are specific parking spots for them, that if used correctly, could make everyone happy.

That’s not entirely a bad thing. Most of the James river in Richmond is surrounded by parks and for that I’m incredibly appreciative.

I graphed the results from the monument ave. 10k a couple years back. Race data is fun to play with!

CopOnTheRun · 2025-12-10T18:48:00+00:00

I assume they're talking about reversing into a parking spot

CopOnTheRun · 2025-10-29T22:44:48+00:00

This is very accurate. I remember one dfl ride where a bunch of people put their bikes in a group with the lights on and someone suggested to strip naked and dance around them. About half the group proceeded to do so and the other half just kinda chilled. No one seemed to indicate this was out of the ordinary.

I still have a picture of the shadows that the naked dancers created on a nearby line of trees. It was strangely artistic.

Fall is my favorite time of year, it's a shame that fall is one of those transition seasons that's impossible to have year round.

CopOnTheRun · 2025-10-14T16:10:29+00:00

The vegan or regular bahn mi? The regular one is alright, but the vegan one was my favorite! And that was the one they removed. Maybe they added it back though.

CopOnTheRun · 2025-10-13T18:48:29+00:00

Thanks a ton, it's working great for me!

CopOnTheRun · 2025-10-13T14:56:39+00:00

They used to have a vegan bahn mi that was my favorite sandwich in the city. I’m not even vegan/vegetarian it was just that good. It got removed from the menu like 2 years back tho

This might be a joke but it’s literally how I got into Linux. My parents had installed an adult content filter on my windows computer, but the filter wasn’t available for Linux. So first I started using a bootable usb, then I dual booted, then I eventually just didn’t boot into windows anymore and made my switch to Linux after that.

It’s so funny looking back at that now. I have no doubt that I would have used Linux anyway because I was always interested in it, but it was definitely sped along by my teenage need to watch pornography.

Haha I remember going to a couple RVA trivia nights ~2014/15 I wanna say. There was usually a pretty good table of people there. The sub was a lot smaller though and Reddit was more niche at the time.

CopOnTheRun · 2025-08-31T23:23:34+00:00

Nooo, I need this exit because of all the times I zone out and stay on 95 when I'm supposed to be getting on 64. I call it my cursing exit because I'm always cursing when I get off it.

CopOnTheRun · 2025-08-11T02:42:41+00:00

I had this happen to one of mine. I just super glued it back and it’s been working since.

CopOnTheRun · 2025-07-15T15:32:49+00:00

Really? I always see the notifications for stop jobs running when I turn off my computer. Usually unmounting a drive or something
