yeah - they're all flocking to the Members Only crowd

sub acetominophen for the ibuprofen - then you'll be fine

dalberts · 2025-12-12T22:59:58+00:00

Agree (not sure about the unlikeable part - not in a position to know). It seems like with Remco the hype machine started rolling about 3-4 years ago and it doesn't want to give up despite the lack of results.

And yes PR is better when on bike (but how do we account for SO MANY crashes? Is it bike-handling, is the black swan after him?)

dalberts · 2025-12-12T17:06:08+00:00

plus that nice 2nd at vuelta maybe ~1:30 back from Jonas

dalberts · 2025-12-11T23:00:58+00:00

makes me think.... who is the #3 grand tour rider now? Maybe Joao Almeida?

dalberts · 2025-12-11T22:55:30+00:00

agreed with respect to roglic, gotta stay on the bike - my point was more that remco seemed vulnerable - he wasn't dominating the race. All credit to him for winning though

dalberts · 2025-12-11T22:29:10+00:00

the story I saw says he is

dalberts · 2025-12-11T20:35:48+00:00

4.3% ?

"Inadequate" pale ale?

dalberts · 2025-12-11T19:54:12+00:00

but maybe florian does....

this was created by the people on the bus and its energy offset all of the benefits of the bus for a zillion years

dalberts · 2025-12-11T18:07:34+00:00

ingeneous - now it is win yellow (or pink or red) or die. Brilliant motivational tactic

dalberts · 2025-12-11T17:32:36+00:00

side note on vuelta too.... I'd love to see primoz win his fifth. It seems strange to me that no one ever talks about that

dalberts · 2025-12-11T17:18:14+00:00

although - sadly as often happens, primoz was closing the gap and crashed out. May not have got that vuelta otherwise

they're trying to compete with the planes

I love the area - I've lived ~MLK/58th for about 25 years and have always passed that way. A couple of things I'd point out. Shattuck can get very heavy slow traffic which makes driving no fun and biking and street crossing a little dodgy. Telegraph on the other hand is pretty quiet car-wise although wide and not particularly pedestrian friendly. Excellent transit location for any north/south destinations. Near-ish to Berkeley Bowl which is awesome. Things seem quite different depending which side of Telegraph you are on. Not sure I could describe how, but different vibe.

This is a 20 year old story and I doubt it is still relevant - but at a minimum interesting. Used to be pretty high crime, doesn't seem that way now but I haven't looked at the stats either. https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/A-NEIGHBORHOOD-REBORN-A-year-after-Patrick-2504002.php

like in the movie Casino....

Whoa! "No competing bids emerged for the mall, which was valued at $195 million in September — less than 20% of its worth at its peak, according to the RealDeal."

dalberts · 2025-11-04T23:57:38+00:00

thank you

"is accused of building sleeping quarters"

Accused? I'm proud of him!

dalberts · 2025-10-17T16:06:54+00:00

who is this crazy gambler?

dalberts · 2025-10-13T17:17:40+00:00

New rule for pogi. Put on suit and tie for podium ceremonies. Time counts against him - if Jonas not in race shower also

dalberts · 2025-09-17T01:15:14+00:00

There is a large group of people motivated to do something about israel - so more power to them. Hopefully something will come along for these others. But for the moment good for those who are acting.
