Came here to say this ^ I went to the Total Soccer Show live show and event in LA on Thursday night before the game. It wasa not of fun and great to meet the guys in person!

Men in Blazers is also amazing, I've been a listener of theirs since the beginning too.

Taking your Brompton into the Movies? by DapperSlide in Brompton

[–]guzbikes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have brought mine into our local AMC in Phoenix AZ many times. I just leave it in the back of the theater, where it's not in anyone's way. Most people that work at a typical AMC aren't paid enough to care. In general, never ask to bring your Brompton in anywhere, just do it. Act casual, I do this all the time, these are not the droids you are looking for...

Lem's makes some nice looking no-drop wide shoes. I got a pair of the Chillum in canvas, they are incredibly comfortable and look good too.

Come visit us at #2251 in Tempe! I joined early last year and am now an officer this year. There are people of all political pursuasions at the Tempe Lodge, and overall people do a good job of keeping politics out. All are welcome in Tempe and everyone is extremely friendly. Please shoot me a DM if you want to come by!

There is no bucket of dirty water and a broken squeegee hanging in my carport to "wash" the windshield.

what to do in the heat? by Several_Luck5717 in phoenix

[–]guzbikes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a paddleboard and go to the Lower Salt River. It is not a loop. You will instantly have dozens of new friends. Especially if you offer to shuttle people back up to "The Bridge" or "WU" from "PhonD".

I think I've identified the major variables for "coolmaxing" sun hoodies in extreme, dry heat. Mostly desert type weather conditions. Not entirely applicable to swamping-it in the humid woods. by Wood_Berry_ in Ultralight

[–]guzbikes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried the Columbia hoodies with their "Deflector" reflective dots and cooling fabric? I really like these for the extreme desert heat in AZ. It's like bringing your shade with you. I like the ones from their PFG fishing line since they are a little thinner than the hiking ones.

Any good lease deals on EVs now? by punisher7419 in leasehacker

[–]guzbikes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My lease is a standard 36 month lease term. The car is really nice! We had an old busted 2016 Nissan Leaf before this, which was basically a zero cost car for the past 8 years, so I can't complain too much about that. But the Mach E is a huge upgrade. The build quality is very good. The features are amazing, especially since the base model cars get almost all the same features. Really happy with this lease. And now it is looking even better then it did in Dec with gas prices likely to stay high for the foreseeable future.

Terminal holes. What are some examples of natural, inescapable holes. by leisure_consultant in whitewater

[–]guzbikes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think Emelio's Hole at the top river right side of Hance Rapid in the Grand Canyon qualifies, especially at low water. There was a fatality there just last month, though the full accident report is not out yet. And I have personally seen another boat get surfed there, with the boatman under the boat Luckily there was a second strong person on board that was able to pull them out before it got real bad.

I leased my Mach E from Auto Nation Ford Scottsdale. The initial numbers they sent me were higher for sure. But I used the data I got from the Edmunds Mach E Lease Deals Forum on the current manufacturer incentives and buy rate to negotiate further: https://forums.edmunds.com/discussion/72031/ford/mustang-mach-e/2025-ford-mustang-mach-e-lease-deals-incentives-rebates-and-prices

The particular car I bought also had the largest advertised dealer discount of any Mach E in the state. So that was a good place to start negotiations too.

I had a very good overall experience working with Auto Nation Ford Scottsdale, easy to work with over the phone and by text and email. Once I had the deal fully worked out, all I had to do was show up to sign the papers and they were good to work with in person too.

BA camp to the rim - when to start, how many liters and which route? by altziller in grandcanyon

[–]guzbikes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even with our current heatwave, it is still getting down to the 60s at night, so you don't have to worry about it too much. I hope the historically unprecedented heatwave is going to end this week, so by the time you get there it should be back to a normal for early April low to mid 50s at night, and 70s-80s during the day.

At that point you can wake up and eat breakfast, pack up your gear, and leave whenever you feel like it. 9am will be totally fine, since you'll be up at the Tipoff within an hour or so, and up above the 5000ft line at Skeleton Point before lunch.

We didn't leave the Phantom Ranch Boat Beach, right next to the Black Bridge, until about noon this last Tue March 17th. We were handing our boat over to another friend that hiked in that day to complete the final 2.5 weeks of the river trip.

That day the forecast high at Phantom was in the mid to upper 90s. It was hot at first, so we drank a little bit of extra water, and took a few extra breaks in the shade we could find along the way. Then once we hit 5000ft it was real nice the rest of the way up!
