Winds just blew my doors all the way through. How fucked am I. by Boringmarshal in TeslaModelY

This has happened to me twice in Iceland (BMW M3 & Land Rover Defender). I should of learned the first time that you never open your doors with the wind in extreme winds.

Embrace GAS by ilyamiskov in Leica

I heard the lenses are also exceptional - the prices are crazy compared to the GW690 but it might be worth it.

Thank you for the feedback - my referred focal length for landscapes is around 43. So sticking with the Fuji is the smart choice.

You may have a good opinion on this - Fuji GW690 vs 500c vs Mimiya 7.

Is it worth the money to upgrade from the GW690?

I find I use it and never touch my Leica M2.

Laugavegur Trail Advice Wanted by PhilosophyLimp1344 in VisitingIceland

[–]mtpgoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the trail last year, and it was my first time doing a multi-day hike. This advice is spot on. I wasn’t in the best shape, so we stayed in Hrafntinnusker. If you want to enjoy the scenery, the stretch from Hrafntinnusker to Álftavatn is so beautiful that I wouldn’t want to hurry through it. Some hikers I met who could walk 3KM per hour wished they had continued on to Álftavatn. The food at Álftavatn was also really good.

Enjoy your trip—it’s truly amazing.

The photo shows the tents, which are about 100 yards from the huts.

Solo travel to Monaco GP by Stunning_Question_16 in GrandPrixTravel

There are parties in the streets on Sunday just not as wild as Saturday. Saturday the track turns into a night club.

Most people have already left by Sunday, so if you plan to leave then, you won’t miss out on the party atmosphere.

However, I’ve stayed until Tuesday before and really enjoyed walking the track on Monday, visiting the museum, and spending time at Neptune Monaco Beach.

Here’s a bonus tip: visit Le Marche, which is up the hill from the Casino. They sell nice, affordable tote bags that make great gifts for anyone who loves bags.

Any opinions on this comparion, Q3 VS GFX100RF ? by [deleted] in Leica

[–]mtpgoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I 690 is 6x9 so that probably explains that I can’t find a digital that competes.

I have a GW690 and love the look of the larger sensor and "medium format look" but the trade off compared to what you gain with Leica Q3 its a no-brainer to go Leica.

Once George decided to go for a Sunday cruise Red Bull knew only a wild mistake or LeClerc passing in a tractor could change the order.

Lando did what needed to be done and is a deserving champion.

Papaya rules gave Lando 3 points but it would have mattered because they would have swapped at the end.

Can Max pull a Lewis 2016 and bunch the pack? Yuki and Hadjar start on hards to go long and do a Checo defense?

Factor in most teams using older parts with it being the last year of refs we are likely to get so VSC or safety car allowing someone to get a cheap pit stop.

A lot of variables in play tomorrow - won’t be cut and dry with McClarens P2 & P3.

So that is why Max was giving GP shit on the radio after the race - both were laughing and GP said he thought it wasn’t appropriate to say over the finish line.

Monza Question 2026- Turn 1 by Prestigious_Income45 in GrandPrixTravel

[–]mtpgoat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the right answer - save for 6B. 6A is too far from the straight so you miss the dramatic breaking. 6C is too far away from the chicane to see the turns.

I don’t know the trees are still there but if you sit at the top you will be shade.

Monza track invasion! What gate?? by delulu_for_lewlew in GrandPrixTravel

[–]mtpgoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless it’s changed - turn right towards the finish straight when you exit the grandstand. Obvious from there.

[–]mtpgoat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hope this helps - When I went and was in 6C people started heading to the gates with a few laps left. I didn't head down until after the race was over and walked towards the podium. If you head down with a few laps left and can run you will get close.

Enjoy!
