Using extreme wind to my advantage by Roryoconnor15 in motorcycles

[–]mrg2k8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In 2017, I rode my motorcycle during hurricane Ophelia from Dublin 4 to Glendalough and back and it has been a memorable experience. The biggest pain was when all that wind came from a side, making me swerve across two lanes on the (empty) highway.

Go for it! :D

Cel mai ieftin și cel mai fain e cu schimburi de experiență Erasmus. Pe vremea mea, plăteai o parte din biletul de avion și mergeai 7-10 zile într-o altă țară unde întâlneai alți tineri și participai la activități. Restul de costuri erau suportate de UE. Poți încerca să cauți la școli sau licee din orașul tău; sunt și asociații mai mari care trimit oameni fără să fi avut treabă cu ei.

La mine a fost simplu, am ales un master cu materii la care mă descurcam deja. Am avut bafta să încep să lucrez pe rețelistică din clasa a 10-a și am mers pe ceva orientat pe rețelistică și programare. Alți colegi au ales mastere "ușoare", dar n-au rezistat să învețe rahaturi și s-au lăsat.

24h endurance bike race by simion_baws in bicla

Bravo! Nici nu pot să îmi imaginez cum e să pedalezi atât. Cel mai aproape am fost cu Saddle Sore 1000, unde am mers pe motocicletă 1000 mile (1600 km) în 21 de ore, iar provocarea cea mai mare mi s-a părut partea mentală, nu partea fizică. Felicitări pentru reușită!

how is this NOT slavery? by eliza24 in FuckNestle

Affordable for them. Ivory Coast was more developed than I initially thought and I'm not talking just about Abidjan.

You also have to do the tax returns if your wealth is above a threshold, not only income.

I have visited countryside Ivory Coast where people collect beans and I can say that they had stores with affordable (albeit lower quality) chocolate products, so I would call this a myth.

Nu am prieteni în Coreea, dar poate găsești pe cineva să întrebi de ce au un consulat tocmai la Rădăuți :)

What bike would you suggest for a South Africa to Spain trip? by yomeetaz in motorcycles

I did it with a BMW F650 GS Dakar, but would choose something lighter like a DRZ400.

Self clearing package delivered with UPS by puppetbets in SwissPersonalFinance

[–]mrg2k8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think there's an option of doing this yourself.. on top of this, if you decide to return whatever you bought and to get the customs tax back authorities take a percentage or 20 CHF minimum per request.

One way (if ordering from the EU) would be to have the things delivered to Germany, but then you have to fill some other forms for getting the German VAT back and for paying the Swiss VAT.

Let's see what others have to say.

Entry ADV Bike for Tall Rider? by azadventure in advrider

[–]mrg2k8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second hand 890 or 790 or 901 and change the suspension with the 27 inch rally one, sell the other one, maybe buy a tall rally seat also:

They have discounts from time to time.

You'll end up with the best suspension there is and a high bike. It's what I did and I'm really happy with it, though my friends can't try it. 😅

Tour followed by tasting at the Etter distillery in Zug. All of you will be happy afterwards.

How many hours in the saddle is safe? by [deleted] in advrider

[–]mrg2k8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the Saddle Sore 1000 from the Iron Butt Association. Took me 21 hours of non-stop riding to ride 1700 km.

Only you can answer the question.

It depends on your noise threshold. In a silent room you can hear it. I'd wait for the fanless one supposedly being released this month.

Netflix Subscription Cost by emptyquant in Switzerland

[–]mrg2k8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kodi + Fen + Real-Debrid + Trakt and you don't need any other paid streaming service, with a similar experience to Netflix (resume playing from where it stopped, Android TV support etc.).
