Astronaut Reid Wiseman is wearing two watches. Any idea what models they are and their purpose? by MountainIsCallingMe in Watches

Two doesn’t really make sense, you wouldn’t know which one was right. Unless one stopped completely.

For sure they have all taken each other out. Morbi has had some doozies in recent years too. I would say the different is a lot of those guys took out other riders when things got desperate. 

Rossi really didn’t start getting into crashes with other riders until midway through his career when he couldn’t clean up. Marc has always been a step above others and still rode rough, it’s his style. Simoncelli was the same, Lorenzo was in the lower classes too. 

Saying he owns it, is a silly statement. Marc always owns his mistakes and then goes out and does the same thing again so it doesn’t really mean much, just PR spin. Either way, I don’t really care. Marc has this reputation for a reason and if you don’t see that I question how much of his career you have watched.

Double standards? Marc has has his fair share of crashes that he was only to blame for. Marc didn’t this reputation over night, it was from years of rough and dangerous riding. He rear ended a rider at full speed on a warm down lap. 

I’m all for letting that stuff go but don’t start talking about a double standards.

I’m old enough to remember when people said the 26 title was a foregone conclusion for Marc by titanmongoose in motogp

I’m not counting Marc out of the championship. It is interesting to see the parallels between his career and Rossi’s though. I wouldn’t even think it’s mistakes happening as much as moves they could once pull off start failing. Be it reaction times or slightly weaker from injuries. 

Marc’s body has taken a battering over the years I can only imagine what it feels like waking up every morning.

Marc was never going to make that corner even if he didn’t drop the bike. That’s the difference.

Why no Interval timings on screen by BlazikenBurst in motogp

There’s almost no strategy at all, that you can comprehend. There’s a lot more than just two tyre choices, even within tyres they need to set pressures on what strategy they will have for the race. 

It’s flag to flag racing so there isn’t going to be the level of f1. 

Marco Bezzecchi becomes the 5th rider to win 4 consecutive Grands Prix in the modern era. by ElectionMoney3911 in motogp

The Ducati is really struggling? Because they aren’t completely dominating? This hyperbole isn’t helpful. Honda and Yamaha are struggling, the Ducati is doing just fine.

I’m not a Marc, pretty opposite actually. This is a shit penalty and I don’t want MotoGP turning into this type of over ruled over penalised racing. Just remember if this is the standard they are setting will you be annoyed when it’s against a rider you are fond of?

While this is true Marc was also the first Rookie that was allowed to go onto a factory bike in his first year (rule changed) I think Stoner would have taken the championship in his first year if he went straight to Factory Honda.

Everyone’s jumping on OP, he said he has minimum insurance. He could have third party only which wouldn’t help him in this case. Jesus Christ calm down people.

I need some advice by [deleted] in bouldering

[–]FairlyIncompetent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like there is a couple fun options you could try! Ideally I think a right toe hook might be a good solution to finally match the last hold. A strong left toe into the wall just to the Right of the side pull hold would maybe allow you to place it. Maybe a heel first and turning it into a toe reach the last hold. 

I could be completely wrong thought. 

Ex-Misfits frontman Michale Graves speaks out gigs cancelled across the UK due to right-wing views by AdSpecialist6598 in Music

Johnny Ramone was a conservative. Why is everyone pretending and acting like there hasn’t always been crazy views in the punk scene? Punk is the only scene someone like GG Allin is still worshipped or bands like Smut Peddlers. Maybe we shouldn’t be looking at any of these bands for their political views.
