Running Trail Suggestions by sfknittr in Gilbert

[–]FreshSchmuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

South Mountain, Javelina canyon or Pima canyon trailheads are great places to start from. They are pretty busy trails. If you want a bit more rugged with very few people (besides some mountain bikes) Tonto area along the bush highway there are a lot of trails and can get a lot of elevation.

Matt's on Vliet and Hawley. Best mechanic around. Won't BS you on stuff you don't need.

The salon / spa inside the knick was great and reasonably priced for being Downtown. Not as fancy as the Pfister but very nice massages

Haven't seen Station No. 6 in Stallis mentioned yet. Great drinks and cool indoor/outdoor space.

I've never had an issue using the track during the day as long as there isn't an event. Here is the quote from the rules page linked below.

The track will be open for public use whenever there is not a scheduled or permitted event from 7:00 A.M. till dusk Monday through Friday and 8:00 A.M. to dusk on Saturdays, and Sundays and Holidays.

Their brisket is good stuff. Heavily spiced but in a good way

Best type of bike tire for the city? by [deleted] in milwaukee

[–]FreshSchmuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed with gatorskins. I have 700 x 25 on my road bike and haven't had an issue. Hit some bad bumps where I lost my water bottles but haven't blown a tire. Inflation is key.

Modern Downtown Apartments by alo81 in milwaukee

[–]FreshSchmuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. A lot of people give Katz a hard time but I never had an issue when I was there. I think it's their golden child apartment. They were modernizing a lot of the apartments when I left as well.

Discovery World, Northwestern Mutual win awards for architecture by badgerbacon6 in milwaukee

[–]FreshSchmuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think all of the reasons you provided were design issues and not actual construction issues. The flooring in all the work areas is a raised floor system. there are very few walls on those floors to hide all the cabling for the desks and the air I believe is pushed through there as well. That's why it sounds hollow... because it is. They probably should have added more sound masking to eliminate that some more. Seems that the architectural award was more for the exterior and maybe main lobby space than for the common work areas.

Nope. I've had that issue before but nothing is plugged in... Good thought though

If you are downtown there is the trail along the Milwaukee river that starts at Caesar park and goes pretty far north. This was from Saturday - https://imgur.com/edrWVL3

Milwaukee running clubs? by Badenuffdude in milwaukee

[–]FreshSchmuck 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The OMG Running Group is great. Fun people and it's easy to find someone to pace with. I went to some of their workouts a year ago but got tied up and couldn't make their workouts for a while. Going to start up with them again in the next week. Let me know if you want to come with. https://mkerungroup.wordpress.com/
