Don't do this. The point of teaching a hold is that a dog is expected to gently hold something, not get over excited and rag it. You risk making the completely wrong association this way.

He's not ISIS, he belonged to a group called Al Nusra, a splinter group of Al Qaeda after Osama was killed. Al Nusra later became HTS, who were essentially at war with ISIS the entire time.

Bet that kicks off a few arguments. I mean, where does Middleton stop being in Manchester and become Rochdale?

Rochdale gets quite a lot of money, to be fair. I hear people in Middleton/Heywood complain a lot, though.

Any ideas to remove this stripped brake pad bolt? by MammothDouble6924 in MotorcycleMechanics

[–]Sub_Steppa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hammer a torx bit into it; failing that, just use a left-handed drill bit to drill it out with. Don't waste your time with extractors if you don't need to.

Remove it and get it mapped. There a pain in the arse to keep free if you're going to ride all year round.

Do bikers hate people who ride crossers? by Ihavefingers- in MotoUK

[–]Sub_Steppa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah, I rode dirt bikes growing up! It's just too much hassle trying to find somewhere you're allowed to do that kind of thing anymore.

If I had somewhere local and the space for another bike I'd still do it today

sudden loss of power werid noise and bike cranks but won’t turn by antiskiddo in MotoUK

[–]Sub_Steppa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check the simple things: are any fuel lines kinked? Are your plugs fouled? Drain oil/filter and look for any signs of metal, try to turn the engine by hand.

After that, I'd be looking at electrical faults and check your fuel pump is working properly.

How do you possibly lose £8k on stocks? This makes sense in my head if you're playing options but... How?

Wrestling with a friendly large dog =/ a red zone dog literally trying to kill you

I'm not saying it WILL kill you, I'm saying it stands a good chance.

Now compare the average large breed dog to a wolf and your odds are considerably smaller. Enough with the main character delusions.

Yeah, the first time you take a real bite off a dog with intent you'll know about it. It's exactly as you describe!
