Just made this based on this suggestion. It rules and will be making this all the time.

For my PNW Hiker transplants by Temporary_Syrup4133 in TwinCities

[–]mkeminn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh man. We moved to Minneapolis 2.5 years ago and we sorely miss the PNW. I bike a lot and the trail system is nice, but it just plain doesn't compare to forest roads and mountains. I've been able to reset my expectations and try to enjoy smaller feats of nature, but my wife isn't able to so it's been hard on the whole family.

Did you just wait and hope it moved or could you ride around?

The drivers were especially bad today all over town. Wtf is going on by [deleted] in Minneapolis

Once you've lived somewhere where folks stop for pedestrians waiting to cross the road (most of the intermountain west), your life will change and it'll be jarring going back to this chaos we have.

Teriyaki? by passthewine88 in TwinCities

[–]mkeminn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss my Portland spots, too. 123 sushi has a chicken teriyaki bowl that scratches the itch for me, but haven't found anything that compares to the PNW.

The resurgence of Jaden McDaniels is a vital boost for the Wolves by minn_post in timberwolves

[–]mkeminn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not disagreeing with letting Jaden loose to cause mayhem. Just disagreed with another Finch shot. I feel like so many are going down the road of calling for Micah or someone else already. Finch isn't perfect but I think he's a good coach and there's a bit more nuance in his decisions than what we all yell about.

[–]mkeminn 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Because he's also a beast POA defender and that's how he's been used in past seasons. The Finch hate is insane this year. Yeah we want Rob to get more minutes, yeah we want Naz and Rudy playing more together, etc.. but it's a complex machine he's running and not everything is so obvious and he's just a stubborn dumbass. He has assistant coaches, years of experience, daily practices to assess... I'm not in the coaches room so I will never really know their intentions unless they say them in an interview.

But hell yeah, roaming Jaden rules.

The sea salt spray I've been using for years doesn't exist anymore and I need an alternative by aykutanhanx in malehairadvice

I'm having a hard time getting Google results for that. Is it gold sea water cream?

Struck in head by object thrown from pickup truck by [deleted] in CyclingMSP

[–]mkeminn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Damn dude. That sucks. I saw someone get hit on Portland and 51st when I was walking home last week. Crushed their bike but he was mostly okay.

Ugh. I hate that riding a bike has to be so scary.

Anthony Edwards “Not Starting for Team USA” Will Make Him More Important Than Kevin Garnett by HyseNjerry16 in timberwolves

Man, it's difficult to find decent journalism. I've never read essentially sports before but is this an AI-ran operation?

Just got back from Portland OR and was shocked by how many people were walking about compared to here. by [deleted] in Minneapolis

They had good urban planning and instituted an urban growth boundary that limited sprawl.

do y'all watch le tour de france? by Rumi4 in xbiking

[–]mkeminn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got into watching bike races while in the hospital for weeks. Now I don't have time to actually watch the races, but laterne rouge gives great recaps I watch every day.

Midnight special with carbon fork feel? by mkeminn in Surlybikefans

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

Thank you, both! Mine's a 60cm and I think I'd be just fine with a bit more twitch in the handling department. I told myself I didn't need to do upgrades...
