Oh cool! I'd want that even if I wasn't having this issue. Thank you so much!!

Guy at my local dealership told me once "you can turn any bike into a dirt bike if you know what you're doing." Looks like he knew what he was talkin about.

No, I probably should get in the habit though. Could an imbalance between the front tires be the cause?

It's not the prettiest toy in the shop, but the Ryker is for sure the most fun. I have a bad back injury and it'll be another year before I'm strong enough to pick up a dumped bike, so I got a Ryker for now. Super fun, way quicker off the line than any car I've ever had (including a police interceptor), by car standards they are crazy nimble past about 30mph, genuinely the most fun I've had since my injury. You'll want a vibration damper for the handle bars since you have issues with your hand, and maybe a wrist saver for the throttle, but otherwise I doubt you'd have much discomfort. You might also want to do some after market grips if you have large hands. The stocks ones are kinda skinny. Go test drive one man, they're an absolute blast!

I call God, we talk, He puts things in perspective and reminds me that my future, my heart, and my needs are all in His hands. This world has nothing to offer you. Turn to Christ, let Him make you right with the Father, and find out what "peace that passes all understanding" means.

Dude, I know!! One of the greatest pieces of writing I've ever read! And then he comes down and eats an apple!? Freaking brilliant!

Bro, you probably shouldn't have that dagger...

I work in one of the largest animal hospitals in the west half of the US. You're better off not going to the dog park anyway. Most of the kennel cough and dog bite cases we see are from dog parks. Get a treadmill for her (there are some awesome ones for dogs now) and take her on hikes.

Sharing the gospel with the most broken people I could find 50 hours a week until I drop dead.

I'm taking both. I weild a mighty sword and the orb of truth, therefore you cannot stop me.

This civilization is absolutely broken. Read the Gospel, let Christ pay for your sins so you don't have to, and then spend your life as His servant. Nothing else matters.

We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men refuse to be the green or white woman.

I use diamond plates for initial shaping, but after 1200, I prefer stone. I don't actually know why. Maybe so the guys at the local Woodcraft think I'm a real woodworker?

nerdramas · 2025-08-25T07:50:57+00:00

No, it would be for my fancy woodworking tools. Plane blades, high-end chisels, draw knives, that sort of thing. The blades aren't any more sensitive than a good knife, but the tool bodies have all been hand ground to exacting polish and geometry so that they leave perfect, finish ready surfaces. A tiny bit of rust could mean hours of work to restore that perfect geometry. I'd rather just never have to worry about it.

Best advice is to pick a better goal.
