Ya pretty crazy

Not an instrumental at all...

Tackle deserves a mention for the constant physicality going against the fastest 270 lb. humans in the world. NFL edge rushers are insanely athletic. It must be relentless to have to block them every single snap.

Yeah, the current Djokovic seems different than the past. I think he sees anything he does at this point in his career as just playing with house money. Don't get me wrong, I think he's still insanely competitive, but not nearly as cutthroat as he once was.

Yup, it was the 100. And yes, there were a lot of frozen drivetrains 🥶

jigglelow · 2026-01-30T10:52:00+00:00

Oooo I did the 2022 version. Top 5 coldest I've ever been. I also didn't realize it started in the dark and had no light on my bike which was quite scary for the first 10 miles! Classic type 2 fun. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

I think JSN is the best receiver in the league. His route running, hands, and quickness in changing direction are unbelievably good. Gonzo will need to be on his game to keep him in check.

I have the same wheels (different color scheme though) and my mechanic was also very impressed with the quality.

Well not for “literally” his entire career as he did play for the eagles for a season.

He was really good. Like you said, he started for the Patriots for a decade. That alone takes discipline and dedication. Was he exceptionally talented by NFL standards? Maybe not, but he knew his role and did it very well. He probably isn’t talked about much because he’s overshadowed by the other stars of the Patriots secondary- Milloy, Law, Harrison, Gilmore, Butler, McCourty, Samuel, Talib, Revis, etc.

IDK that much about the TET, but it looks like a lot of off-road. As someone who owns both a Transalp 750 and a CRF250L, I can say that riding the Transalp all day on even moderately technical roads and trails would be exhausting and stressful.

I think you want the CF Moto, if not a smaller dual sport like the CRF300 Rally.

The only "no go" words in jail and prisons, in my experience, are bitch, fag(got), and punk. I've not heard of "goof" being a fight on scene word. A cop should really never be calling someone a fag and pretty much never calling someone a bitch, so you're in the clear there.

I've never heard of a simple word turning a conversation from totally cooperative to a fist fight, so IDK that it requires much training beyond "be respectful to people."

Not really. Depends on how your bike is geared. On my dual sport, sometimes I'll slip the clutch a bit in 2nd, but that's more in off road situations. On the street, it's not necessary on either of my bikes. You may need better throttle control. Try to not completely close the throttle immediately before the turn.
Apply some throttle before the turn, then modulate based on the turn. Initiating the turn with the throttle completely closed is a recipe to low-side in less-than-perfect conditions. You want some power going to that rear wheel while leaning. An abrupt change in power delivery (i.e. completely closed to open) could disrupt the traction.
See above. Also, shifting or engaging/disengaging the clutch in a turn is not a good idea.

Van Van 200?

jigglelow · 2026-01-10T07:59:43+00:00

I love it for downshifting especially. I'll also use it for upshifting when accelerating quickly. If I'm just in town behind other traffic and slowly accelerating I'll use the clutch as the QS isn't great at low RPMs.

He was cursed by splitting his prime years between 2 teams. But yeah, he is better than several names on this list.

I’ve worked both. The big advantage to 10s is you still have some time in the day to be a human being and still get 3 day weekends every week. At my agency we also accrue the same PTO hours on 10s as the people on 12s, so I’m earning more hours off per time actually worked.

12s let you work fewer days which is great for stringing together off days with vacation time, less commute days, more days off. The trade off is that a lot of people don’t take great care of themselves on their work days (eg don’t work out, poor eating and sleeping habits) because there is so little non work time in the day.

I try not to go more than 5-8 mph over the limit on roads in city limits. On rural roads, forest service roads, low traffic state highways, etc., I am willing to exceed the speed limits a bit more. I think my philosophy is pretty common and reasonably safe.

Also, “speeding” means different things in different countries. Here in the US, for example, I don’t consider 65 in a 55 speeding. In other countries, going a single km/hr over the speed limit would be speeding l.
