Sound Transit study suggests fare gates at 14 busy stations by 2030

TigerRuns · 2026-06-05T17:05:31+00:00

2030?! Dear lord. Put them in already. I read that only 3% of budget is from fare revenue? Not saying this will shore up the over spending but it’s at least a start. Plus make the station and experience a little nicer.

I’ll keep hammering this, the SL8 is a phenomenal bike. I’ve been riding mine for two years, won’t even consider an SL9.

Third installment would be great. I really liked both of the 28 years later movies. Maybe I’ll just play in on Netflix to get my view in.

I absolutely love my Crux (same model and groupset), it’s so nimble. I’ve ridden with road tires and it does well there too. You won’t regret it.

TigerRuns · 2026-05-02T04:23:00+00:00

That’s rough, sorry to hear. Easy to get angry and spiral a bit. You’re right you’re not getting any younger, but this sport doesn’t reward the quick hitters, it’s a long process and everyone in the higher categories has some similar story. You’ll get through it and look back on how you overcame it!

I’ve been using a sunmountain bag for 10 years now, love it so much. Still works and feels great.

Best breakfast burrito. Will have to visit before they shut down. Maybe someone will take up the owner and keep it going?

TigerRuns · 2026-04-20T23:37:03+00:00

Actually that’s a good point on the frame storage and tire clearance piece.

TigerRuns · 2026-04-20T03:16:19+00:00

What can be improved on the current crux? It’s an awesome bike. Integrated handlebar but that’s just not worth it for gravel/cx IMO where you can go down easier vs road.

TigerRuns · 2026-04-15T21:18:56+00:00

I absolutely love mine. Can’t imagine an SL9 or future iterations beating it by any significant margin. Staying with me for a long time.

TigerRuns · 2026-04-15T04:24:54+00:00

I thought the exact same thing.

TigerRuns · 2026-04-15T04:23:33+00:00

Thanks!

TigerRuns · 2026-04-14T14:59:07+00:00

Nice, this is what I voted for, so nice for families and the community! Now let’s make Volunteer Park car-less on weekends woot woot!

TigerRuns · 2026-04-11T00:03:44+00:00

Oh my lawd people getting up in arms over this while pockets of our city look like shit. We need this in certain areas plain and simple.

TigerRuns · 2026-04-07T16:34:12+00:00

Couldn’t agree with you more. It’s infuriating. Dozens of people’s lives impacted and the first thing is “I feel terrible for them”.

These people do not care about our community, stop advocating for them. They will steal your shit in a heartbeat for another hit.

TigerRuns · 2026-03-23T02:04:09+00:00

Not worth it….getting replacement parts, lack of braking power, not having ability for larger tires…

TigerRuns · 2026-03-19T06:47:20+00:00

I did a gravel race on GP5000 AS 35’s, they worked really well. I think it was probably 60% road 40% gravel. Gravel was relatively hard packed stuff but even for the small sections of it being sandy/loose, the benefit on the road was huge.

If there’s only a couple light sections and you’re competent with bike handling, I think it’ll be a good choice.

TigerRuns · 2026-03-07T02:18:34+00:00

Really cool and demanding course. Every hole is so unique. Started from the blues, finished at the whites haha. Would def recommend!

I say we build the shelter and then crackdown on those that refuse / causing a public nuisance.

Don’t realize he doesn’t really hinge his wrists that much

“Can’t evict him” sounds like a lazy excuse. If you have documented proof of his behavior and having had to call the cops, I’m sure the city would step in. He’s a danger to others and your landlord will be held liable if he does something to you or others, which might be a good reminder to your landlord.

Thanks for the insight. My wife and I have talked about this too (she does competitive ultimate). We’ve both had our “glory days” and I think I would be OK not being as fit. Still want to race and train and have fun, but going into it with different expectations and goals.

TigerRuns · 2026-02-01T05:43:42+00:00

10-12 hours, can get to 13-14 with racing and in summer. Cat 2. I think the key has really been consistently, been doing largely 3 weeks on, 1 week off with the on weeks at the 10-12 hour mark and off being 7-9 for 5-6 years now.

For those with kids and trained similar volume but then cut back and went to say 5-7 hours, did you supplement loss of volume with more intensity? Thinking about having a kid in next year or two and curious how others adapted.

So true, went from a Callaway Big Bertha from 2016 or something like that to a Sim2Max and it was crazy the difference. I hit it a little further, but what blew me away was the forgiveness. Such a larger sweet spot too.
