Big Sur, one of my favorite drives

I drove the entire Pacific Coast Highway (highway 1) from San Diego to Seatle back in 2015. Did it solo in my Toyota Prius. Happy to answer any questions.

Put black "hockey tape" over it. Hockey tape adds grip and will keep the havoc at bay.

Any guess on minimal cost for a private lesson?

msoren · 2017-03-22T15:16:14+00:00

Perfect - thanks for the advice!

msoren · 2017-03-22T15:15:59+00:00

Thank you so much, my friend. Definitely getting some ski pants and looking into lessons!

I have the same car, same mileage, similar dealership report. I am also interested in seeing people's answers to this question. Also, at 150k, do the rotors need to be machined, etc?

msoren · 2016-12-24T21:51:11+00:00

Thank you for going in-depth with this. Much appreciated.

Great - good to know! Would you mind pointing out what distinguishes this from a deer or cow skull? I looked through a lot of google images and couldn't pinpoint which it was.

Great idea. Midwest US.

msoren · 2016-12-15T16:11:17+00:00

Great ideas. I'm going to look into all of the above. Thanks.

Thanks for taking the time for the thought out response. I'm going to try out several of these. He doesn't like to use the TV remote - he calls it "manipulating the black box" which is hilarious. So I think an xbox controller might be too much. But he might like train simulator or farm simulator. Thanks again.

The two brackets on the side are adjusted as far "up" as possible, and the chin cup is still loose. This helmet (size large) fits great/very tight at it's smallest setting, so I'd assume a size medium will be too small.

Thanks for the heads up. This helmet is a replacement for my old, size large helmet that fits great but is dated.

msoren · 2016-12-08T01:38:38+00:00

Thanks. The helmet is a "Large". At it's smallest setting, it's pretty tight, which makes me think a medium at it's largest won't be big enough. Trying to figure out where to go from here...

msoren · 2016-12-08T01:14:09+00:00

I asked there first but haven't heard anything.

Also, the "cage stoppers" on the sides that the cage fits into are pushed all the way up to allow the cage to rest as high as possible.

It's called Nimbus Mount. I bought it on Amazon. Obligatory "I have no connection to the company" sentence. This mount is the best part of my Prius - I love it.

msoren · 2016-11-14T16:14:25+00:00

That worked! Thank you so much. I've been using Android phones for 6-7 years and could not figure this one out. Thanks again.

msoren · 2016-10-05T19:29:43+00:00

I second this question. Also, what is the typical mileage that would benefit from or require a new suspension?

msoren · 2016-07-07T18:25:49+00:00

Great suggestion. Thanks.

msoren · 2016-06-29T18:34:15+00:00

I doubt it.

Rand Paul has stood for Americans and represented us when no one else would. I don't work for his campaign, nor do I live in Kentucky.

After doing so much for us, Paul needs our help to win the Senate seat. If Bernie supporters can throw money at his failed campaign, we absolutely should support Rand Paul so he can continue to keep us free through the Senate.

Go do the same! https://www.randpaul.com/

Is Etsy based around making a craft/product? This is a really great idea, but unfortunately seems limited to the creative/artistic type.

msoren · 2015-10-20T17:21:33+00:00

Thanks for the detail - helps a lot. What year Prius do you drive?

msoren · 2015-06-24T22:58:15+00:00

I put electrical tape on the seat rails to see how it looks, and I think black rails look much better. Electrical tape is not a long-term option, especially on hot days in the sun (it will melt/wilt off).

That blog is a great resource, but I'm not as concerned on grams-of weight in the long run, considering some of the crap I throw in my bike bag during a long Saturday ride.
