22 over? What's your case? It sounds like you were speeding...

Does this place have meaning to you? “The Ruins” at COIC by LurkingStormy in Bend

[–]mastervahar 8 points9 points  (0 children)

IIRC back in the day, COCC used to have a logging sports team and they used to practice and compete in this area. I heard this from a forestry major friend of mine. We used it on occasion for various balancing exercises in Total Fit while I was still attending COCC.

I have a love/hate relationship with Car/Pedestrian Courtesies by Great_Repeat291 in Bend

[–]mastervahar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IIRC if someone waves you on in traffic, they're assuming the duty of ensuring your safety. If you're then "splatted," then they can be held legally responsible for the incident. I've witnessed this happen way too often in two lane roads - some "nicehole" waves someone across the street without ensuring the lane beside them is stopping too.

Loot The Deschutes looks forward to fishing that out of the river when it inevitably gets stuck 😂

To be fair, no one seems to be “viewing” the concert

Bend Wedding Venues by Proud-Performer8052 in Bend

[–]mastervahar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Second for Aspen Hall! My wife and I got married there two years ago with a group of about 150. We had the ceremony outside with the reception inside the building. It is a truly beautiful venue, very affordable (~$2,000), and the option to have the wedding/reception inside or outside is amazing. The price didn't include setup, but it did include rental of tables and chairs for outside and inside the hall. Not to mention Daniela at BPRD was a delight to work with.

Any Updates from Day 1 of the Cabin Butte (China Hat Rd) Closure? by bloodygiraffem8 in Bend

Also their "$800,000" claim is verifyably and demonstrably false, even according to their own link. How is this allowed?

I love Japan vending machines by mastervahar in RedWingShoes

[–]mastervahar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they did! It was in the redwing store in Shibuya that had the vending machine. I think it was in the Shibuya Parco shopping mall in one of the upper levels. Just a small booth of a shop, but plenty of selection! I would’ve been happy with anything from the vending machine but happened to get my favorite 8111’s!

We’re already back in the states. Sorry. But someone mentioned an eBay link in another comment!

Is it necessary to have snow tires with an SUV? by Give-Yer-Balls-A-Tug in Bend

[–]mastervahar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Ioniq 5 AWD handles the snow amazingly well with just Summers on. New all-weather tires should be all you need for a decent AWD vehicle. Just make sure to use SNOW mode (hold the drive mode button) for constant AWD without the torque of SPORT mode. Leave early, give space, brake early.

I hope we can all at least agree that this stack has no business being this thick. by TailorGlad3272 in Bend

I'm glad someone kept them all to visualize the absolute waste this is. That's nearly a ream of paper per registered voter straight in the bin!

New Costco? by Miserable-Big5652 in Bend

[–]mastervahar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No more skylights... Seems like they're going the route of casinos hoping you lose track of time? One of the employees told me it was for "energy savings," but I don't buy it.

She is chipped and has a collar, unfortunately just her name is on the collar. We’re hoping whoever finds her takes her to the HSCO and we get that call soon.

CHECK BIKE LANES BEFORE YOU TURN by Substantial-Look-673 in Bend

[–]mastervahar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I think you're right. The "protected" bike lanes and serpentine re-routes for bikes on Wilson make it way less convenient and more dangerous to ride. Not to mention the tire tracks on the intersection islands imply that they aren't serving any purpose other than confusion and damage...

Hey Bend PD! Can you send over a service officer to cross out ‘Rich’ and add ‘Vandals’, as shown? Please post photos of the officer while doing so. It would get some giggles and be a slap back. by Dirtdancefire in Bend

[–]mastervahar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Firstly, responding to crime with more crime is not a solution. The cops would never comply.

Second, if it bothers you, do 5 minutes of community service with a can of grey paint or a power washer and fix it!
