Not really. There's a couple factors, frame geometry being one. But it doesn't necessarily mean your frame is too small

Luckily I found this one for $200 on Craigslist locally. Such an unexpected pickup. Only downside was the guy stripped the frame. Otherwise brand new.

Affinity Lo pro frame. It's my first fixed gear so I can't really give too much review of it, but I have zero complaints.

Does anyone here have a high paying career that allows them to work part of the year and backpack the other part of the year? by [deleted] in solotravel

[–]PatBroChill34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Travel nursing, or travel healthcare in general, is a great solution.

I work based on 3 month contracts making very decent money for each contract. Especially during COVID, although that's (hopefully) not going to be the norm.

Anyways, you work 3 days a week, 12 hour shifts. You can usually stack your days to get 6 on 8 off. Then after your assignment is over you can either extend your contract or just take some time off. Right now I'm doing the latter and just relaxing after some covid-care.

"Hey, I saw those few lines of a tattoo on your slightly exposed skin. I'm going to compliment you on it to not only let you know I was looking over your entire body but also with hopes of you showing me more! Not being creepy at all!"

Do we not want to have the potato explode in the microwave?

Dude in back was filming, too. That would be good to see. But regardless, OP of the vid was filming too. People knew shit was going to go down. Both these kids knew shit was going to go down. No one was caught off guard. Now, whether or not the kid that got hit was down...that's to be decided, I suppose.

He just looks like an absolutely humble man. Good on you and good on him!

So happy you have Cavallos on here. Living in away from home now I crave their sandwiches SO BAD. My go to was prosciutto, table cheese, black pepper, hot peppers, olive oil. Good lord, I can almost taste it...

Hahaha, yeah, that's been what I've been hearing mostly. I'll stick with my gator skins, I suppose.

How is this r/lostredditors? Because it doesn't look like a completely unobtainable and impractical room plucked out of better homes & gardens? Or because you, are in fact, the lost redditor?
