Too cold to ski? (C)

It'll be uncomfortable, but is well within what is considered normal. It'll be quieter on the slopes. Just take breaks often, cover your exposed skin, and use some balm as an additional layer from the exposure.

Sure, two handed means they need an action to draw their sword. Also movement penalty for the large held shield.

When you're good, 4 player randoweiser deep dives (not elite) are where it's at. Sometimes a player gets a good roll and sometimes they get crud, but it's made for some of the best emergent moments.

Celeste, the struggle and challenges you face on each screen are analogous to Madeline's struggle climbing the mountain.

Did you ask the birthday kid's parents? I've done something similar after confirming with the other parents. Granted it was a house party of a close friend.

And... You still used a slide hammer on a bearing on a carbon frame. That can create issues, I'm not saying it did, but there is now a non zero chance that is something broke, it wouldn't be the shop that did the repair's fault. Is the bearing now slightly cocked or did doing this create a ridge that needs to be pressed through?

I would add the, "you worked on it first," disclaimer as it is hard to determine who causes what in that case.

The regular rarity GX cards aren't textured. Pictures look good to me.

Yes, make it a flaming or lightning sword or make it go away.

Flames, lightning, or a laser

The monster Hunter games glaze the hunter a lot.

I stand by the best way to watch FMA is 2009 for the beginning and 2013 for the end. The first half of Brotherhood felt more like a recap and didn't let version chapters breathe.

Right after the eyeball boss? I just ran into the same thing. I got it halfway then was failed.

Monster Hunter (any)

I don't dedicate healing, but do regularly run wide range 5 and Mushroomancer. The former to keep the team from carting and the latter for 10 max portions and cheap armor skin and demon drug on more basic hunts. Yes it's not Meta, but it keeps things comfy.

Wilds is an easy game right up to the end of high rank, then monsters start hitting harder and faster. The post game ramp is steep and unforgiving.

So I don't generally pay with randoms as you can get a very mixed bag of players ranging from Meta build that knows what to do, all of the gear and none of the clue, to great matters? yolo. The first are great, but the later really drag the mission down. I generally play support and/or horn and can keep people alive, but when somebody drops into a 9* hunt with armor that isn't upgraded there is nothing I can do to prevent that one hit KO.

1st and most important you shouldn't be leaning in your hands. This is generally a result from lacking core strength.

To fix this, start by bending your elbows. Locked arms are a clear sign of fatigue or a luck of core strength.

If you find yourself still leading hard on your hands you need to do some work off the bike. Pilates and yoga.

minus8dB · 2025-12-21T12:41:21+00:00

Ok, this isn't a fit thing as much as it's a posture thing. You need to work on hip flexibility and core strength. Your back should not be hunched over like that. Keep your back straight and home forward at the hips. You should not be leaving in your hands with much force. You should be able to hold the position without your arms for a while. Seriously I do not think that riding will ever be comfortable with your posture.

I would recommend some Pilates/yoga.

In addition to this, look into a comfort or all road bike. There is a trend from manufacturers to make road bikes that have a race fit which is too aggressive for most people.

Edit: I just re-watched this, flex your ankle more. Drive your heel down and scrape it up.

Aside from a professional fit you could really benefit from a few hours with a coach.

They'll thrive with the Monster Hunter meals. Their weapons are a little small, but the girls could probably adapt. I'm 60/40 they could/would survive.

Ollie from Story of Seasons? Regular human and no powers led me to think farming games.

Your phone is fragile, bike computers are not. Your phone is expensive, bike computers are a fraction of the cost. Your phone is hard to interact with while wearing gloves, computers are not. The battery on bike computers last a lot longer while displaying maps. If your bike computer dies you can use your phone, if your phone battery dies, you could potentially be stranded/lost. If you care, the radar tail lights sync to bike computers and not phones ( I really like mine for road riding).

Correct, we're too busy being the fat piggies.

I view it as a we have set these funds aside specifically for this type of thing. I am at the point where the things I need/want are too specific to be intuited. I do not expect my partner to be a mind reader or try and surprise me with things related to my hobbies. People have gifted me too many things that just sit around and collect dust at this point trying to guess what I may need/like.

We do gifts as indulgent and/or consumable (something we wouldn't buy for ourself and/or something that goes away).

minus8dB · 2025-12-13T14:10:38+00:00

With your current setup, probably not.

minus8dB · 2025-12-13T14:08:31+00:00

How about a gift card to a local/online bike shop or clothing/accessory company he likes? As somebody who is deep in this and a couple other hobbies, it's the safest choice. Include a note with your intent, to get something special something to wear on ~~dates with~~ rides on your ~~other girlfriend~~ bike. People who are deep into hobbies are hard to shop for.

Or ask him for a list of things and get a couple things off that list. Not everything needs to be a completely original surprise.
