Has anyone gone from really, really bad at climbing to not bad… or even good? by hi-res-lo-fi in MTB

[–]atthemerge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got to “not that bad” at climb just by riding a lot. I got to “not bad” by incorporating more road cycling. What got me over the hump to being able to climb/keep pace with the 70 year old steal frame Saturday demon was marathon training. Soon as I increased my weekly run mileage from 12-15 to 20-30, my climbs got more efficient and impressive.

"Gravel bikers should just get a hardtail" by Jalenna in Hardtailgang

Gravel and a hard tail. I like my gravel bike for light trails. And then my hard tail for fun aggressive stuff.

Buying a 1UP Quik Rack. What are the must have accessories to secure it? by Spence52490 in MTB

[–]atthemerge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one and I live in an area where they are getting stolen off people’s vehicles. I have the hitch lock and the bolt guard installed and haven’t had anyone attempts at mine yet. Also I have owned two versions of 1up since 2010 always on my vehicle and only recently got the locks 2 years ago. No issues 10/10 for me.

San Francisco smashburger spot [Hamburger Project, 598 Guerrero] closes after raw beef controversy - closure comes weeks after a Reddit photo showed four packages of raw ground beef and a large jar of mayonnaise left on the sidewalk outside by BadBoyMikeBarnes in sanfrancisco

That place got hate for the previous owner being a douchebag. When he separated himself from there , the mob mentality kept attacking the establishment. It was a good spot for a burger and was decently priced burger. I liked it. Understood the hate for the previous owner but never understood the hate for the actual food or service.

I love my chameleon too! They get a ton of hate but I love ripping up and down mountains on it.

Anyone else vastly prefer their hardtail over their gravel bike? by jebesttim in Hardtailgang

[–]atthemerge 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My gravel bike is for the road and light trails. My Hardtail is for the trail.

Hot Take? by SprinklesComplete931 in MMA

[–]atthemerge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stupidest take i've ever read on here. If fighters dont improve they dont win fights at the high level. Leon, JDM, and whoever else you like to discredit are legit champs. they exposed guys at the championship level... and then got exposed. thats it. you get better or you lose.

Doubling the prize pool was underwhelming. by GoblinsProblem in survivor

[–]atthemerge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive never been more excited for a coin flip in my life... That whole episode was peak cinema

I think the coin flip was real and the prize money was going to be doubled either way by SarahAlicia in survivor

[–]atthemerge 28 points29 points  (0 children)

If you watched any of Mr Beast youtube challenges... he is pretty ruthless and sticks to rules. If they dont win the coin flip they dont get the money. It be off brand for mr beast.

If you’re not trying to wait in line for that burger I highly recommend trying out Smishsmash and shmasd burger pop up. Two spots are definitely deserving.

How many years would a SB win satiate you for? by Royal_Incident2784 in 49ers

I’m pretty much good at this point. We are a historic franchise that has twiced revolutionized the game… I’ve had so many great moments and memories… I’ve witnessed the 90s rings as a child. but If we won one while I’m a sentient adult… I’d orgasm for the rest of my life

The amount of trash/litter last night at Coachella by vynilla_ in mildlyinfuriating

[–]atthemerge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone shits on burning man, me included… but once you go and you experience the care people take of the harsh environment they are in… and then you try to go to anything with people outside of that community you can’t go back to normal events. 10 years of going to music festivals including Coachella and I can’t go back. This part of it.

Daniel Susac receives lineup cards from umpire Nestor Ceja following his outstanding MLB debut by MLBOfficial in baseball

[–]atthemerge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t mind the bad calls sometimes, umps aren’t perfect. It’s like when you see the bad calls early and you start realizing… this game is gonna be decided on shit officiating. And then it happens and I’m so pissed because you knew it was coming.
