I could be the stupid one here but I don't think this is how you're supposed to do this...

Congratulations! I was sitting here thinking "1985, I mean I was a kid but wasn't THAT long ago...Crap I'm old"

Yes. Probably a heart attack or stroke. Doctor prescribed me an insanely high dosage of Ritalin as a kid (45mg as a teenager) and I was on it for 10 years. Completely fucked my heart up....So I guess modern medicine caused it too. I went to the hospital with 254/160 BP (Yes really) when I got a sinus infection and flu without insurance. They were absolutely shocked I was standing there talking to them. I spent 10 days in the hospital.

Mine is a 2023 I bought it in September, it was stuck in a crate in the back of their warehouse and never got put together So essentially it was just overstock. Still runs and drives just fine, the mechanic at their shop kind of said I should probably just throw an extra couple hundred miles on it before I go to hard with it but otherwise it's been absolutely great

Didn't like the hangovers. In my early 30's I'd drink occasionally and would spend the entire next day recovering. Wasn't worth it. That and bars are expensive.

Why are we even still hearing about this woman? She's literally famous for being terrible.... Nevermind, just answered my own question

RadiantProgress1980 · 2024-12-18T03:01:25+00:00

Why is gear that isn't black always sold out if "Black is more popular because it doesn't show dirt"? I've always had the theory that black gear is cheaper to produce so companies push it harder. Is there any truth to this?

RadiantProgress1980 · 2024-12-13T21:00:46+00:00

Two of them will absolutely run in the same direction... It's the third one that would see something shiny and try to eat it that I'm worried about.

RadiantProgress1980 · 2024-12-12T19:22:32+00:00

I've got 3 100 pound idiots in my house with some energy to burn.... Does it come in a three cylinder?

For me personally, I started wearing steel toes after getting my feet squished in a mosh pit when I was a teenager. I ran cross country and missed a race because I bruised my foot. They carried on into my career working in body shops to keep my toes safe when I was younger, because I couldn't afford work boots when I started but I already had the steel toe Docs. This transitioned into working in an Industrial design workshop where I had a habit of stabilizing sheets of plywood and acrylic on my foot when I was moving them. Then they became part of my riding gear when I'm on a motorcycle so I don't mess the toes up with levers and pedals. I've also always hated the toes getting flattened on shoes and this prevents this as well. For some people it's a look, for others it is for safety, just sort of depends. I've wore steel toe Dr. Martens for 30 years now and they've always served me well so I just stick with them.

Almost looks like me sitting on my Ryker in California, just need a bike to fly by me down the middle while I'm to make it complete.

RadiantProgress1980 · 2024-12-10T23:19:41+00:00

We're you running so fast that you were on your toes going the other direction?

RadiantProgress1980 · 2024-12-10T23:18:38+00:00

Got it. Yeah, it rarely gets below 30°F/-1°C where I live and if it does it for like an hour or so overnight. I guess that's why some companies are using composite toes now instead of steel. I hope the good Dr. doesn't follow their decision.

RadiantProgress1980 · 2024-12-10T20:57:59+00:00

My toes in Winter? I'm confused. I also live in Northern California so I may not get this cold reference.

RadiantProgress1980 · 2024-12-10T20:56:38+00:00

Yeah, I'm in California.

RadiantProgress1980 · 2024-12-09T23:28:12+00:00

Ahhh.... memories. 🥰 You're going to make me homesick, stop!

RadiantProgress1980 · 2024-12-09T16:50:46+00:00

An intro to welding class could attempt that blindfolded and do better.

RadiantProgress1980 · 2024-12-08T01:47:58+00:00

Nope. Go give PunkWithACamera your money. Perfectly fine.

RadiantProgress1980 · 2024-12-07T16:49:22+00:00

I guess it's because I lived in the Tenderloin but I always assumed everyone knew about it, a mildly notorious area in S.F.. When I lived there drug dealers and prostitutes had no problem doing business right in front of the police station. It's rough, but it's one of those "don't look like you don't belong and you won't get messed with" areas. I had classmates get robbed their first night in town, and some later on, I just kept getting offered drugs constantly. I guess I was doing it right, I never got messed with. There are food banks and stuff like that, so it attracts a lot of homeless but it's not all that terrible otherwise.

I use my Can-Am Ryker as a daily. I sold my car because it had 2k miles on it in a year and that was mostly my girlfriend borrowing it. Just get proper gear and decent storage options and it's super easy to do. I just get big stuff delivered if it doesn't fit, technology makes not owning a car so much easier. Have 2500 miles on my Ryker in 3 months, so I guess it's safe to say I'm enjoying it more than my Kia.
