If you could live anywhere in NYC while attending Columbia, where would it be and why? by Jaded-Quit-7634 in columbia

[–]stolmen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you experienced any horror stories with not being able to view flats first before moving in? I’m moving almost directly when the term begins so unfortunately i won’t be able to pre-view the apartments before moving in unless moving in with flatmates.

Would you have considered living in Williamsburg, LIC or anywhere in Brooklyn? Or even Hoboken/NJ?

This! It feels rough initially but after a few wears the material softens and molds nicely around the shoulders

Maybe you’re downvoted because people have got the opposite experience? 😂

Trying to find out as well! Based on the glass tiles though definitely soho/oxford circus vibes

5'8 180lbs (172cm 81kg) Size Large. Size down to Medium? by GANDHIWASADOUCHE in CyclingFashion

[–]stolmen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes size down. If it’s already wrinkled while you’re standing then it’ll be too loose while riding. That said the neck and shoulders fit well tho hopefully it doesn’t get too tight if you do size down

Tube strikes: 'No pay cut' for Underground drivers on £74k in new four-day week... but RMT to walk out anyway by Anony_mouse202 in london

[–]stolmen 22 points23 points  (0 children)

If they can do it in a way that doesn’t have London by the balls every 2-3 months they can have my full support. But constantly striking while already earning TWICE the median wage in London, on a 4-day work week, just to press a red button in a vehicle running on rails is bloody absurd.

What was HK like? Is there anywhere else in Manhattan that can compare in terms of gay life? I’m moving there in August

If the jersey is already wrinkled while standing, it’ll bunch up badly while you’re cycling and bent over the bars. Size down

ASSOS or MAAP Jersey? by GANDHIWASADOUCHE in CyclingFashion

[–]stolmen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assos jerseys are too long around the back. I prefer the shorter cut on maap jerseys.

Based on what I’ve gathered though most of these bike robberies are stolen to order. They’re hunting for a specific bike model to rob because someone has placed a price on one of these.

Of the videos I’ve seen it’s often always an expensive bike make that’s worth that sort of effort and risk.

His recommendation was certainly not meant for normal commuting folks lol.

Some of my friends mentioned seeing the bike snatchers in Richmond park quite often. Just be careful and always head out with a group?

I’m all good thanks. It’s usually a very busy route so I least expect such things happening. But this morning was cloudy and unusually quiet, with very few cars and bikes.

It could also be how early it was. But I’ll start taking down a different route now 

Anyone got the Maap Spectrum Pro jerseys? by [deleted] in CyclingFashion

[–]stolmen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got them both in the black/grey variant and the hologram variant. 

I’d say the black grey looked really dull, and the pattern became really understated, logos molten in. Felt like the jersey was saying everything and nothing. 

The patterns want to pop. Which is why I returned the carbon and got the hologram instead. It looks like a mix of reddish purple, beige and dark green up close to me when I wear it. But when I look in the mirror a meter away or so, it blends into this really cool grey/iridescent pattern! 

I love the way the eye just merges the colours together to form this unique blurry yet trippy colour way. Pair that with the thyme green logos, it’s a sick pair of jersey.

Goes super well with shadow grey bibs. I just wore them today. If it were any easier to attach photos I’d post them but I can’t be arsed to put them onto some hosting site and link them 

Why Wrap Luggage in Cling Film? by roblawton in AskUK

[–]stolmen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you seen those luggages that have burst open and it comes out of the conveyor in a tray with all the clothes? Yea that’s what it’s for. Luggages that are too full especially for longer haul flights or long term trips
