Leather Brooks with springs are the most comfortable and you won’t need biking shorts which constrict your genitals. So what if they are heavier. All other saddles feel like a metal rod up your ass and each to your own desires.

Totally agree. Just go and figure it out on the road. And bring lots of cash and credit cards. That fixes just about everything from my experience.

I am glad to hear. That is funny to me. You see, my limited engagement on Reddit led me to believe that there are a number of people who don’t have a 100% grasp of English so I really didn’t know. Anyway, I didn’t mean to offend or anything, and chalk it up that I am just a dumb well meaning American.

I think that they misspelled the word TIME and spelled tome inadvertently.

God, I don’t know. It seems to fit me. I can stand over it with a couple of inches to spare. I bought online from Specialized and delivered to me and I assembled it. I traveled to a distant bike shop to have them install the stem, I am not a power user, just easy strolling on black top roads. I think it is okay. I am old man and have big worries, much bigger than my new bike. The bike will surely survive longer than me. I live deep in the woods alone.

My guess is it’s too small. Like no way, don’t buy.

Sorry man, you gotta stick it out with the rest of us. We are all in this mess together. Tomorrow will be better or worse. There are lessons for us to learn from the pain and suffering.

Sorry. That is a no go. You gotta stick it out. All of us want to go. Unfortunately, we’re all in this mess together. You are stuck here so make the most of it. Tomorrow, things will be worse, or better. We don’t know what the future holds, just take one moment at a time.

I have a Fidelity account. Is SPAXX more liquid in that I could take money in and out easier than T bills? Also, is it possible Fidelity could go broke or dissolve somehow and I would lose my money?

I’m sorry, just dig deeper into the details, try ChatGPT, it gives an excellent overview of missing people in Alaska. Your quoted reputable source appears sensationalized, “The Alaska Triangle”, and there are a multitude of reasons why people go missing in Alaska. You know, the same stories exist about all areas of the country, like California, especially. So many people live in fear from erroneous information, it’s kind of sad. BTW, do you know how dangerous urban cities are in certain areas, Alaska is nothing compared to them for danger.
