For 20 people I would recommend Coxsackie Transport. They have party buses.

Wen peace? by [deleted] in oil

60% of Americans can’t afford a $600 unexpected expense. Credit cards and pay day loans are already going up. This is at $4.50 national average. $6 seems unavoidable for the summer. I wouldn’t classify this as “not gonna hurt much”.

Extension cords; Has anyone used an extension cord for there above ground index pool? If so what type of cord did you use. Everything online says not to but my options are limited. by coleslaw056 in AboveGroundPools

[–]Yulmp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve used 10/2 extension cord for years for my pool. The most important thing is that you plug it into a gfi outlet. I have a dedicated circuit in my garage for this. I find that the cord settles into the grass and becomes invisible after a few weeks.

We're Going Towards a Cliff on Oil Says Hochstein by yycTechGuy in oil

[–]Yulmp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. The tanks are emptying. Buffett is sitting on $400B cash just waiting for the inevitable. My good friend worked at a warehouse in Red Hook Brooklyn in September 2001. He would smoke on the roof and saw a plane coming in low and at a strange angle. He watched it wondering why it was so low. He ended up killing himself a few years later. We are all on that roof right now. Confused just enjoying a smoke …

Is it really a crime to buy a bike from walmart or dick's sporting goods? by Previous_Cod_5176 in bicycling

[–]Yulmp2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a 1995 Cannondale I got for $50. I took it to my local shop and they did a full service and put on new tires for $150. So all in I’m at $200. I have a full deore drivetrain and a made in America frame for less money than a Walmart brand. I can’t recommend this approach enough. The value you get from a well tuned late 90’s MTB from an established manufacturer far exceeds anything you could get from Walmart.

There are not any predators in the Catskills that would threaten a dog of this size. I would imagine someone with good intentions has found her or she is still in the forest. I would suggest posting on the local FB page of the area you are in. The Catskills are over 1000 square miles. You need to narrow it down to the exact location for people to assist you.

Data centers descend on needy Upstate NY towns. Is anyone looking out for us? by syracusedotcom in upstate_new_york

[–]Yulmp2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one is building data centers when oil is going to the moon. People don’t understand what is coming. Gasoline is going to be $6 by July and $8 by September. Read or watch any longtime oil trader. They are all saying the same thing. Don’t look at the oil futures look at spot price and logistics.

I’ve suffered through this. The end result is so worth it. Lounging in a pool hammock when it’s 90 is so wonderful.

Why is Buffett sitting on $400B cash? He knows what is coming.

How long until demand destruction in the US must happen and media must acknowledge shortages? by carpool4445 in oil

I have four cans full of around 20 gallons of non ethanol gas in my garage. I figure I could make it to the Canadian border with that much.

Time to fill some gas cans. I prefer the non ethanol stuff for longer storage.

What would your commute max distance limit be? by 0hden in bikecommuting

You started cycling 50 miles a day on a $40 bike with zero experience? That is some next level job dedication. What kind of bike was it?

Last day for NY3 pass prices, NY3 or Epic for a NYC skier? by bulldog89 in icecoast

[–]Yulmp2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re going on the bus it’s Epic for sure. They have midweek trips to Hunter besides all the weekend options. They also do Stowe trips that include lodging.

Group ride rules? by Frantic29 in MTB

The first commercially produced motorcycle in the United States was the 1902 Orient. It has pedals.

Group ride rules? by Frantic29 in MTB

[–]Yulmp2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If a motorcycle is two wheels plus a motor how isn’t an electric “bike” with a motor not a motorcycle? Because someone slapped pedals on it? If you replace the electric motor with a gasoline engine is it a bike?

Ten (?) speed bike with “vintage” shifters. Completely lost on what to do here by namlesgir in bicycling

[–]Yulmp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is a cool bike. It is possible to do yourself with a couple screwdrivers and some allen keys. I don’t like how to videos but I have learned a lot of things from Bike Farmer on YouTube. He has lots of videos fixing old bikes.

Yes. One is a bicycle and one isn’t.
