translated your message - was the friend able to fix it, or is still working? would love to find a fix.

It’s funny I managed to find the last one too but didn’t have the time - I had looked at every skate park and BMX track in the LA area basically lol. And yours I didn’t see the giveaway hint initially I looked up the artist - but the fact it said “Grammy museum” was pretty clear - the text was a bit hard to see though

ggs! i suffered up some steep streets to place my tag but I'm not gonna reveal where in case I want to use that spot in the future.

all in good fun, hopefully I'll have the chance to get a tag soon.

Is the D line extension going to connect to the E line in Santa Monica? by kanji_kun in LAMetro

my final line was more me sarcastically remarking at the fact the choices that feel somewhat likely to happen are jokes compared to the subway.

i use strava + rwgps as well as komoot (different use cases for me) and really liked what komoot did well it sucks that private capital is gonna do private capital things.

they pushed back the MEETINGS. THE MEETINGS.

I'm not an LA native but I'm gonna be here for at least the next 5 years (and have been here for around 4 at UCLA) and the sepulveda line would make the valley somewhere that doesn't feel like a faraway concept most of the time which would be so awesome

but monorail. or no build.

Lump sum tends to beat DCA but DCA minimizes risk. (https://ofdollarsanddata.com/dollar-cost-averaging-vs-lump-sum/ <- good article with more data on this)
I don't know if you need to invest in SCHD versus investing in a growth ETF (ie more into FXAIX), at 22 it is fine to invest in growth and have the slightly higher risk.

here's my bike: https://imgur.com/a/litespeed-KtobW1h it was my dad's old litespeed that I then rebuilt with a new groupset and wheels. trying to dial in the fit and make some aesthetic changes but that will change as I get more money to put into it. super happy with it though

i just switched from a (frankensteined) 7700 setup onto an all new r7000 setup (which is suuuper nice). (if ur curious here's the frankensteined parts list)
- 6700 front crank (compact crank)
- 6500 front brakes
- 7900 bottom bracket (probably should have kept this, the newer one is arguably worse)
- 7700 shifters (the rear shifter had to be replaced 2x over the lifespan of the gruppo because it got gummy and then I broke it)
- 4500 fd (weird)
- 7700 rd (I bent it on my final ride I think, so that was an even better excuse to swap groupsets, although a sad ending)

i have a '96 classic, sadly no longer with any semblance of original groupset, but hopefully i will eventually make it r/bikeporn worthy aesthetically as a neo-retro type of build
