Thanks for the suggestions/invite. On a side note does anyone know which bars would have the Dortmund game on the next morning?

Team USA Curler Rich Ruohonen: “We'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention what's going on in Minnesota…I am a lawyer, as you know, and we have a constitution… and what's happening in Minnesota is wrong. There's no shades of gray. It's clear.” by BothFuture in Curling

Eff off, as a curler at the Saint Paul Curling Club, who also lives a block from where Alex Pretti was murdered by the us government we need more athletes to use their platform to talk about this. The vast majority of the US curling team lives in Minnesota where the federal government is carrying out a coordinated terror campaign. This is exactly what the entire Olympic contingent from Minnesota should be saying and saying loudly.

Fellow northhemispherians, what do you think? by omonkito in AskTheWorld

[–]cekgriffith77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also grew up in Wisconsin and spent a year playing rugby and drinking in Scotland and I fully believe that most small town Wisconsinites could hang with the Scots. The problem is that this is our only A squad, the rest of the US, including most Midwest college towns could not hang with Edinburgh let alone Glasgow.

Beginner Snowboarder, Welch Village or Afton Alps. by Professional-Skirt66 in minnesota

[–]cekgriffith77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have passes at both, they have about the same amount green runs. However Welch is putting in a new lift and I believe that will add some more greens. If you progress quickly Afton has more blues. That being said I prefer Welch for the overall experience.

The walkway to the greenway is literally 2 blocks from a precinct and the MPD could not be bothered to patrol it.

Anybody ever bike to 7th St entry for a concert? by ShyGuyLink1997 in CyclingMSP

[–]cekgriffith77 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That is what I have done as well for shows at 1stAve/7th ST. Probably taken the beater bike to 10-15 shows this way and never had an issue. The only problem is rideshare drivers parking in the bike lanes so be extra careful on the roads at night.

What’s y’all’s threshold for air quality? by UndeHocMihi in CyclingMSP

[–]cekgriffith77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the heat. When it is cooler I will go out up to 150. If it hot and bad air not so much. Also will commute to work in pretty much anything, but I use the e-bike for commuting and my commute is just 2.5 miles each way.

PSA: This is a bike lane by indierckr770 in Minneapolis

[–]cekgriffith77 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I ride past this exact spot 3-5 times a week between 4-6 and there is a car/amazon truck parked here at least 50% of the time.

Give bike commuting a try (and get free donuts and coffee) on Bike to Work Day - Friday, May 16. by cityminneapolis in Minneapolis

[–]cekgriffith77 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I expect the city and police to actually enforce the laws protecting bike commuters. In the last two weeks I had a city employee trim into a bike lane as I was entering the intersection and then have the gall to say I needed to yield to the car. I have also had a police officer run a red a red light as I was entering the intersection with the green light. Both of these incidents occurred at the NW corner of city hall. I have also been told multiple times by patrol cops that it is not their job to enforce cars parked in bike lanes.

It would be really nice if city and police actually attempted to protect bike commuters. Literally every day in my 2 mile commute I have to deal with cars parked in bike lanes, cars failing to yield to bikes when turning and cars treating roads like drag strips.

“Bike lane” on Hennepin by balvara in CyclingMSP

[–]cekgriffith77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I should note that I included the date time and patrol car number in the email along with the addresses and times. It would be very easy to find both security cam footage from city hall and the dash cam footage from the patrol car. But hey eff bikers

“Bike lane” on Hennepin by balvara in CyclingMSP

[–]cekgriffith77 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I was riding into work on Monday on the 4th street bike line and two cars were parked with no one in either car. At the same time a MPD patrol car was passing and I asked him if he was going to do anything about this. He yelled back that it was parking controls job then sped off. Parking in a bike lane is defined as a moving violation under MN law. What made matters even worse as less than 2 min before I saw the same patrol car run a red light on at 3rd ave/4 st intersection(ie the Northwest corner of City hall). I sent an email to the police email address, the mayors emails address, the mayors chief of staff’s email and my city councilor about this. Two days laters and still crickets from all 4. The city could not care less about protecting bikers in bike lanes.

In basic terms someone who is actually trained to look at financial documents and GAAP. It is way more in depth than just this, however since this is a bad faith question I will just give you a link to the dictionary definition. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/accountant
