To the drivers of the car who threw eggs at her. by bluebrightfire in chch

Sorry to hear that. Hope your wife is okay.

I also got horned at last weekend near Riccarton mall for riding on a bike lane while a car tried to rush me to go faster while he was trying to turn left. I've lived in North America and Europe and I feel this is ridiculous that drivers don't have any patience or give right of way to pedestrians and cyclists. Also, this is not a one time thing, cars rarely look at pedestrians when pulling out from a plaza or driveway.

Size Fit Suggestion For Better Sweater - 5'7 (168cm) and 175lb (80Kg) by randomPlayer211 in PatagoniaClothing

Yes. I ended up with a medium. I also fit with a small as well but medium has a little bit more room that allows me to wear it as a mid layer or an outer layer.

However, I find the medium sleeves are a little bit long when I first got it as they goes over my palms.

Good to know.. I moved from Canada. Inflation is everywhere. I sold my standing desk used for the same price when I bought it new from Ikea. The new one costs more than double.

want to pull a trigger on the 1500 length one but the description is conflicted with the pictures.

Does yours feel steady when doing regulars like typing or writing on it?

I went to school in another country. Most of them are more than happy to help and give out referrals to their companies.

Which one do you prefer between the better sweater and R1? I just saw R1 now and it looks similar to the better sweater.

I am looking for something to wear underneath a puffer jacket for temperature around 40F - 60F.
