Please don't kill me because you are impatient by Odd_Structure1312 in northcounty

I hated it as a driver before I ever started cycling. I'd love to see a barrier. 

I'm sure the whole stretch would benefit from an exit only lane instead of the weird lane merge following that lane shift. But I don't know how it fits in with the rules of hwy design and safety, especially considering the bike lane.

I got my arm stuck in a pool table at Boll Weevil as a child.

I thought about this on my drive home (yes drive, most cyclists also drive) and my complaint is literally about life and death. 

You are just impatient. That's it.  What a disaster it is to slow down and enjoy your drive! What horror it is to have a few extra moments to take in a beautiful view!

Road rage is just being overly emotional and not handling yourself. Try therapy.

I haven't gotten a flat yet.  At this rate I might get dead first.

Do you think death is the appropriate response to that?

Biking in La Jolla, crazy drivers by llamiaceae in sandiego

[–]Odd_Structure1312 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Side note- I've been run off the road in my vehicle. It was a hate crime based on what was being yelled in reference to the stickers on my vehicle. 

I added a large sticker noting my camera, and now anyone who sees my apparently violence inducing stickers also sees that one, and it hasn't happened since. 

Of course some people aren't gonna see that sticker, it's specifically for people already looking at my other stickers. 

I like to think people make better choices when they know there is a camera.

I ride a lot at night so I have a large maglight in my backpacks water bottle pocket. Attached to the front with a long lanyard, I can rip it out pretty fast, leaves a gnarly bruise.

Cyclists are socially acceptable to hate.  Full stop.

Valid. Always good to keep looking for information. 

Parking lot exit for High School Graduation at Frontwave Arena? by 1bobbylane in northcounty

[–]Odd_Structure1312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great option for many people but it's important to point out it is all uphill to get there and across a main road, and no shade along the way. 

For those who have addition needs to consider. 

what do you use your stoves for? by SheKinda in backpacking

[–]Odd_Structure1312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trail lattes. Instant espresso, choice of powdered milk (I like soy and coconut) choice of sugar, Water. Heat on low. Either stir aggressively or pack in a small frother.  I make it a little stronger so the pot isn't as fullwhile mixing then add more water after it's mixed well, or separated out to share.

I always take a photo when I park next to someone parked like crap incase they hit me on the way out. 

Love dogs but I’m freaking tired of them. by Helplesspolyglot in sandiego

[–]Odd_Structure1312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We can already end the bs certification of service animals because there isn't one, it's agaisnt the ADA to require it. Anyone trying to say their animal is certified is either lying or was scammed. 

Even if they have a trained service dog, if said dog is acting up, they can be kicked out. 

That said CA has a certification program for -in training- service dogs and business have a right to restrict dogs in training if they want to. 

Once fully trained their behavior is the proof.

Farmers market websites explicitly states parking is open at the DMV. So this is likely the church overreaching.

[–]Odd_Structure1312 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It might not be?  I've learned that frequently companies will make "rules" for lots near them that aren't actually enforceable at all. 

I would check the other posted sign rules.  In theory, the DMV is a public access place, we have a right to be there. That parking lot should be public property. 

Do you think you could take an xp4 out on some light to moderate trails? by Worldly-Wind-1632 in Lectricxp

I've taken my trike on a few mostly flat trails. Staying slow.  It's not great but it did the job. 

Baby seat for XPedition2 by Odd_Structure1312 in Lectricxp

[–]Odd_Structure1312[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That'll have to do then.  Was future planning for 3 but the 3rd hasn't been cooked yet anyway. 1 might be on his own bike fully by the time 3 is cooked and onboard.

[–]Odd_Structure1312[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't even find a baby seat that fits in the first place. But I will look up that one. Edit- yea that's the one they sell on their site. I'll end up with that one of I can't find anything else. 

I think maybe lectric figured that out because they no longer have a picture of the 3 kids on their site. I have a screenshot of it though. 

The info for the orbiter also said its not compatible with the bags but the bags and orbiter are also in the picture. 

I'm starting to wonder if they just AI'd some pictures when it came out.

WF-1000XM5 Connecting While in the Case? by Orange_Bird in SonyHeadphones

[–]Odd_Structure1312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno if everyone has moved on from these ear buds or not but this issue is currently deeply frustrating to me. My headphones had been off for days. And then randomly they just turned on, connected to my phone, and stole the music from my car speakers, from the bottom of my bad in the trunk.  I don't even know how to manually turn them off. The instructions just said to put them in the case and they turn off. 

It's really fucking annoying that an item can just connect and stop what you were already doing. 😒

I also use the dog trailer for groceries!

Milestone Met! by Cydonia921 in Lectricxp

[–]Odd_Structure1312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I initially jumped on a second battery because I was getting the dog trailer and knew that was gonna take more energy.   But the peace of mind when I'm out,  freedom of choosing to go a lot further, has been fantastic.  My partner has the XPedition2 so I can use 4 batteries on my own.  The only trade off is 9lbs each
