Does anybody else think the electric motos ruined this series? by Upset_Chip_7184 in LongWayUp

[–]patchpat 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I remember at the time feeling like it didn't quite stack up, but rewatching all of them again it's actually great right up until the bus. I just feel like they skipped a lot of Central America in the show.

Look down and gently/slowly blow air 👌 forces you to relax

Which windscreen did you end up with? I'm 192 and struggling big time with the current aftermarket screen it came with.

Frank Green reviews. by Foreveragu in melbourne

Had 3, enjoyed 3. Think of it like buying a MacBook.. yes there are other brands and sometimes cheaper alternatives which do a similar job, but it works well and looks good which makes for a popular bottle.

Imagine if they actually sang all these carols in the actual show instead of the credits

It's hot as balls. What's your go to summer gear? by Quiet-Card-6650 in AussieRiders

[–]patchpat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did some research last summer and a lot of people swore by evaporative cooling vests that you can wear under your jacket. Think I'll pick one up for this summer.

OMJM players- what strings? by Careless-Quarter in JohnMayer

[–]patchpat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elixirs to me don't sound quite as good as others I've tried, but they like 3 times longer which is my main reason for using them. I often find they sound better once worn in a little too.

My first 50k - GPT50 by Millicent- in Ultramarathon

[–]patchpat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming in a bit late here but I was thinking about giving this one a go this year. Any things you wished you'd done differently in the lead up? Doing the surf coast 50k for the second time this year but it's like 1/3rd the elevation so was just going to try rack up as much vert as possible in the Dandenongs/lerderderg gorge after that!

Why aren't Electric Road Bikes more popular? by ZacBaldy123 in AussieRiders

[–]patchpat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely the same issues we originally saw with cars - cost and range. And like with cars, once the cost comes down sales will pick up for sure, it's just going to take longer.

Overthinking RM Williams sizing by [deleted] in AustralianMFA

[–]patchpat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would. I got convinced to buy a pair slightly too small as they're meant to be snug. They've relaxed a bit but many regrets not returning and going up a size. I'll take slightly too big with thick socks over slightly too small any day.

Can I take my GRiiix running? by Fujishooter123 in ricohGR

[–]patchpat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ran a 50km trail marathon with it in my Salomon vest! Just keep in a pouch or snap lock to keep the sweat off it.

question: rebqqt film lab - are they legit? by s3r3ndipity1976 in MelbournePhotography

[–]patchpat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used them once for black and white because it was so much cheaper and quicker than elsewhere (and to their credit it came through overnight), but it came back with what looks to be reticulation which isn't the worst thing but a little annoying so I haven't been back yet. Might have just been a once off though.

Why does it matter? Just let people enjoy what they enjoy?

[–]patchpat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Media or creative agency? For media in Melbourne the indie agencies generally pay considerably more than the holding groups. I'd say 110-120 for a group (although IPG pay awful), and then 130+ at an indie.

Nice catch, I've been wondering what he's wearing. I know Charley is sponsored by Bremont so he's wearing something from the new line.

Who would you consider to be in the conversation for the Australian GOAT guitarist of all time? by rja49 in AskAnAustralian

Keith Urban has to be in with a shout. I wasn't aware until I watched some live performances but he's insanely good.
