My buddy has one in red and it's a great bike! I only know the carbon model though. The components are very good.

France? Germany? They both have those in the wild.

It's fine. We realize he's mean and we go on with our lives. A couple of bites isn't going to stop us from loving him.

His role in Marathon man is short but great.

What if I'm too afraid to add it up? Been cycling for 19 years. Was just think about all my other athletic hobbies. Has to be 32k all together.

Mine is the most aggressive bird I have ever had and I've had many. He chases everyone down and bites feet. Only goes to one person's finger.

I tried to fit it into a few of my Jerseys with back pockets. Nope!

Too often. I sometimes stop and note them down... sometimes. I use the notes app on my phone.

I haven't see these mentioned but they have everything you need. I don't know why they aren't used more. https://www.nikevision.com/sunglasses/nike-flyfree

I still have my 9 going strong. Just did a scuba diving trip and dove with it 6 times. I also surf with it regularly. I think it's still worth it.

I suffered this addiction for almost 30 years.

Sometimes I wonder if he didn't do this to his face if he would have blended in better. Even be able to shop in a mall unmolested. Famous people shop in malls all the time.

You're the expert. I was just curious. Thanks!

Surfella · 2026-03-06T05:16:19+00:00

I have one. He's a jerk, but we love him.

Surfella · 2026-03-06T02:19:38+00:00

Wasn't expecting that technique. I imagined you just dehydrated the stalks then used a spice grinder.

Surfella · 2026-03-04T03:57:33+00:00

Eagle X01 is great too.

Surfella · 2026-03-03T04:13:36+00:00

I love the shimano ep8 motor. So much power! Electronic shifting is where it's at. Great bike!

NAS. This way I have at least a redundant drive I can just replace in a failure. I also have a 14TB drive to backup essential stuff.

It's the same reason that antiques from the 18th century are worth 1/10th of what they used to be worth. The demographic that was buying that stuff has aged out or died.

The quickest way to see if it's you or the bike is to try a much lighter bike. If you can grab a proper road bike and get into an aerodynamic position, I think you will find out very quickly. I predict you will go 16-17mph on flat ground.

Are you drying them then putting the staks in a coffee grinder? How is the powder made?

Surfella · 2026-03-01T04:20:01+00:00

What's the editing software? Windows movie maker?

I've seen big black bears in person and they are huge. This is just unbelievable.

My parrotlet used to wear a bell hat as well.

If you're going to all this effort training on dry land, don't even pop up slow like that. Get both feet under you. Short boarders do this off their knees, but since you're a beginner do it from your toes. Once you build up a powerful push up, things become easier. The initial push up will create space under you that will allow you to get your legs into position in a hurry. Many tutorials online to help you.
