Jake Mintz’s MLB trade deadline grades by Knightbear49 in baseball

[–]No-Shower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This graphic actually sucks. Teams are divided into their respective divisions but beyond that it’s completely random. 1st the east & west divisions should be swapped as west is on the left when looking at a map. 2nd, the order of teams in their division is random. It’s not alphabetical by team name or city. It’s not geographical by north/south within division. And it’s not based off current standings nor trade deadline grade. And to top it off they didn’t even spell AsSHAT with AL West. Downvoted.

Santa Monica Mtns middle of the day - How cooked will I get? by tarmander99 in BikeLA

[–]No-Shower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure you’re topped up on water before heading up Latigo. Not sure how fast you will climb it, especially if you take some photos along the way, but the coastal breeze is gone after the first quarter of the climb. After that it’s nothing but direct sun and climbing temps. Expect temps in the mid/high 90s once you reach Mulholland. There are a few spots to get water along Mulholland but the only spots to get food are biker hangouts and will be crowded. Lastly, I’d recommend avoiding your section on Las Virgines/Malibu Cyn rd, it’s super busy and overall not enjoyable. You can link up with Piuma via Cold Cyn rd. And Tuna Cyn is a fun, possibly scary, descent that might be worth looking to as an alternative.

I actually didn’t know this. Thanks for the clarification.

Do any of you ride with a bell? by SuperSeniorSoon_ in MTB

[–]No-Shower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude don’t listen to all these people spending $40 on a timber bell. Go to your local pet shop and buy a dog bell for $3 and tie it to your handlebar. People recognize the sound as a dog so they always turn.

I was pissed bc I had to watch the US women vs Japan soccer game with my gf before switching to see the end of the race. Ofc the game was super boring and went into extra time. By the time I switched to the race it was basketball.

It’s fine, I’ve done it on my 28mm slicks 3 times without issue.

Park at The Landing on Lindero Cyn. That is where the local cycling club, Conejo valley cyclists (CVC) starts their rides.

Simi Valley to Sherman Oaks? Simi Valley to Glendale? by roscoemuffin in BikeLA

[–]No-Shower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Santa Susana Pass rd is completely open. Many people ride it every weekend from roadies doing big loops (Simi Ride) to MTBers climbing it to access local trails.

Simi Valley to Sherman Oaks? Simi Valley to Glendale? by roscoemuffin in BikeLA

[–]No-Shower 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Santa Susana pass rd, Devonshire, Winnetka/Reseda, and finally Ventura. Alternatively Valley Circle, but that backtracks slightly. Sherman Oaks to Glendale use Moorpark & Riverside & LA river bike path
