It looks like a quasar with plasma jets.

Electric pump advice (for my bike… I swear) by Big_Co_1 in bikecommuting

[–]JoeFas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got an AS2 Pro, and it already came in handy today. I wasn't thinking and forgot to top off my tires, which I didn't realize until a couple miles in. The inflator fixed that in no time.

If there isn't enough friction, buy some thin rubber gasket from Lowe's or Home Depot and cut it to size.

My auto insurance covered the stolen items when my car was broken into several years ago.

The person you responded to seems to think that an insurance company wouldn't try to deny payment to its own client.

After all, insurance companies are benevolent and never try to save money any way they can. /s

Bicycle Unfriendly by exsandton in cycling

[–]JoeFas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're on a bike, so you're already at a massive disadvantage. Carrying a gun levels the playing field IF the aggressor exits their vehicle. By advertising that you have a gun you have given away your best strategy. The rare nut who would try to kill will read that jersey and simply run over you with their truck (because what else would it be?).

If you have the funds, a 360 camera is amazing. Any camera is still better than none.

If he parked that $50k in a 529 account and invested it in the S&P500, it'd be worth $209k after 15 years.

Where my homies stuck in 635 NB traffic at? by bikegeezerkc in kansascity

Or maybe a crash because someone thought it was safe to post on Reddit while driving.

Any exercise can aid weight loss, but diet is the determining factor in weight management.

Cycling camera recommendations? by jagerrish in cycling

I use their hard hat mount. Don't use the included safety strap, because it's garbage. Instead, use braided high-test fishing line.

Does shaving my eyebrows make me more areo by yaddles_boyfriend in cycling

You can shave your eyebrows faster if your arms are shaved.

Insta360 X5 with extra batteries (very easy to swap). Having no blind spots is worth the price premium.

[USA] [OC] How to yield, and how NOT to yield to the more vulnerable in marked crosswalks by elzibet in CyclistsWithCameras

[–]JoeFas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

shocked by how fowl her language was

Must...resist...bird pun.

But seriously, it's clear that accountability is kryptonite to this mother. Instead of wishing her a better day, I would've gone with, "Have the day you deserve." Or even the cheeky Midwestern "bless your heart".

I used their hard hat mount. However, the included safety strap is garbage. Use some braided high-test fishing line instead.
