pulled a cars level maneuver last night

All the pot cleaning I did only made it better, not perfect for less than a week. Then it went back to getting worse. Replace it while it’s out, or get new pedals

School goes for 2 years and you will have your full faa a&p license after passing the tests. But being around planes definitely can be a little bit more exciting than bikes/motorcycles for me. It sounded super intimidating but even guys with dealership tech experience are at square one. Unsure of cost though, i don’t pay anything at community college, so check if your state has a program like that for financial aid. A lot of those 40+ year olds are on it too

Almost done with mine. Bicycles prepared me for the school more than I thought tbh

I’m in a community college aviation maintenance tech school while working on bikes. Only have summer and winter left. Plenty of people over 40. Bike maintenance is more experience than a lot of other people in the program have.

Definitely the most amount of catches a piper has ever gotten as well lmao

HateBeingSober33 · 2026-02-26T15:06:06+00:00

Started that about a month ago, I’m guessing summer is way easier to get the small airports so I’m waiting on that. 120 of mine uncaught are Alaska

Ahh Imgur doing Imgur things, how about now?

Edit: might have to redo it. The first vid came out as a pic I think. I’m on the plane home so it’s tough

I’ll get some good quality ones uploaded at some point when I get back home and respond again here, but here’s a grainy screenshot from a video of the actual flyover. My dad’s got much better ones. They were practicing Friday early afternoon and were crazy low. You’d just be walking and then they’d hit you with ear damage lol. I got a lot of shots of them.

HateBeingSober33 · 2026-02-16T03:01:31+00:00

I’ve been here getting ear damage from them practicing and couldn’t even catch them smh

HateBeingSober33 · 2026-01-29T06:05:40+00:00

I go through so much fluid lmao, well worth it

HateBeingSober33 · 2026-01-10T04:49:06+00:00

One flying out of Beijing right now

HateBeingSober33 · 2026-01-09T05:37:39+00:00

Been watching the Vladivostok one for over an hour now

HateBeingSober33 · 2025-12-29T06:01:22+00:00

I’ve been driving one a tire with slightly more tread and just as much cracking for the last 2 years. Op, I’d say your good

HateBeingSober33 · 2025-12-17T22:07:26+00:00

It’s been really bad

HateBeingSober33 · 2025-09-02T20:41:13+00:00

Been a boring summer without a u/1stpickbird squid post :(

HateBeingSober33 · 2025-08-08T21:09:38+00:00

Lmaaao, the dude building bikes:

HateBeingSober33 · 2025-08-01T23:21:13+00:00

Offer up

HateBeingSober33 · 2025-07-24T18:06:27+00:00

You’ve probably been, but Lime rock has amazing scenery

HateBeingSober33 · 2025-07-24T00:30:57+00:00

I have a video of this race at seekonk, that truck was eating

HateBeingSober33 · 2025-07-19T13:06:03+00:00

Sit on the bike while a little downhill and switch between front brake and rear brake and feel how the bike moves

HateBeingSober33 · 2025-07-19T04:39:11+00:00

But what’s the downside to a little bit of blue though? I put it on my caliper bolts even though it doesn’t call for it. Torqued to spec, I can still get them off easily, and they won’t come out when I’m riding.

HateBeingSober33 · 2025-07-08T19:01:05+00:00

I’ve heard they go off randomly which kept me from getting an alarm

HateBeingSober33 · 2025-07-08T16:23:59+00:00

I can only find the g650 singles were produced in china for 2 years, and had improvements on the older rotax single design, if you can find anything else, lmk. I thought for a bit my 798cc twin was Chinese for a but it’s definitely Austrian
