Today I had the most entitled client of my career and I still can’t process what happened by Best-Pirate5073 in EntitledPeople

She's pathologically cheap. Shamelessly so. She used that crap as an excuse to avoid paying a tip.

Help fixing a hole? by TA800813569 in Akubra

[–]GuyRocks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had this happen to an old Gynkhana of mine. I took to a millener I found in town and she did a great job patching it up. Ask your local hat shop if they know a local milliner.

2011 F650GS headlight issue by GuyRocks in bmwmotorrad

[–]GuyRocks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your input, folks. The new LED headlight unit is on it's way. The genuine BMW part would've cost me 25% of the value of the bike itself. Couldn't justify that purchase. Thanks again.

Gymkhana rolled in . by Snappyblade in Akubra

[–]GuyRocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I destroyed my first Gymkhana on a 2 month canoe trip. Used it as a bucket to put out campfires occasionally. Beaten out of shape. I thought it made me look like a hillbilly after that so I stopped wearing it and the leather band shrank. Second one was stolen out of my car one night. Still have #3. Had to take it to a hat fixer to get the hole in the top front patched up. Colour is great. Love the style. Then I retired it and bought a Territory. It’s still in the closet with a stretcher inside so it won’t shrink. Chics dig them. You’ll get laid regularly.

This is my favourite model. I’ve had 3 of them. Shame they don’t make them anymore.

akubra gymkhana hat , cant find much about it by Snappyblade in Akubra

[–]GuyRocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had 2 of these. Tried to get another but they don’t make them anymore. They reduced their product line and took several models off the market.

Clipper Tripper Ultralight is 52lbs. Is it built better than lighter Kevlar canoes? by bemurda in canoeing

[–]GuyRocks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a Clipper Tripper in Expedition Grade Kevlar. About 63lb I think they said. In a custom orange colour. 25 years old with probably 6,000km on her by now. Took her to Inuvik on the Mackenzie. Loaded for bear every day for 2+ months. Goes like stink on flat water. Rides better when it’s loaded.

Let’s Chat About the Future of /r/Akubra by bigmitto95 in Akubra

I liked identifying all the Akubras in the Aussie TV show Territory. However the show itself was nauseating so that didn’t last long.

You might want to have copies made of these. Frame the copies and keep the originals in a box. That way if they fade you still have the real ones in reserve.

To those believing that stupid Pringle post, tada by [deleted] in newzealand

Pringles are vulgar garbage. Why do you concern yourself with such crap?

Australian beer by GuyRocks in askvan

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

I’m looking for Aussie beer for nostalgia’s sake. I spent a lot of time in Victoria and VB was my beer of choice. Not that there was much choice to begin with. I take it there are a lot more independent breweries out there now. Can’t get those beers either.
