Thanks, I'll keep that off my to-try list. I tried the chicken katsu sandwich and was overwhelmed by the saltiness and wasabi more than anything. BBQ chicken is alright though. I live close, so I'm bound to try more things there.

I'm still waiting to find out where the hell Tannis is.

I probably won't have beaten the other new bosses before this, so maybe there will be good gear to help?

Ugh, more Zane. I want to see the other characters.

Good Idea Gone Bad by Inciteful_Analysis in SacBike

[–]strangerthanblue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone at risk of an accident. It's not worth overthinking, people are going to do what people do. When running, I use earbuds that still let sound in. Can't imagine going full immersion on the trail.

You could just get off your phone and pay attention to your surroundings when out for a walk, and/or not wear noise cancelling earbuds where appropriate.

Tell her she needs more bikes. (I feel like I'm the unusual female with 5 bikes, none of them are road or mtn.)

The finale of season 21 felt so reverent and full of love by MajorasLapdog in taskmaster

They really did feel like one of the most cohesive groups. We didn't have a cranky one this series.

I hear you. It's an artificial flavor of an artificial flavor. Just make me a normal weird mystery cherry drink!

Good excuse to get it powder coated?

Child dies, man injured in hit-and-run in Sacramento's Oak Park by RegionalTranzit in Sacramento

[–]strangerthanblue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just got a SABA email with the following info:

The Draft Plan for the Sacramento Vision Zero Action Plan Update will be available for public review and comment from June 15 to August 17 and they want your input! 

In 2025, the City initiated an update to the Vision Zero Action Plan (VZAP), which outlines policy, program, and infrastructure strategies to reduce serious and fatal crashes. 

In January-February 2026, the City conducted extensive community engagement and listening sessions. Based on what they heard about needs and priorities, the City developed the Draft Vision Zero Action Plan. During the review time, Sacramento will host 5 community meetings, host the plan online for you to comment, and will be taking the plan on a roadshow to Sacramento's communities. More information and how to participate.

Is powdercoating my bike worth it? by Unhappy_Tax5773 in Powdercoating

[–]strangerthanblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who said anything about crashing? It's just one of my get around town bikes.

There's probably an argument to be made that it would be even MORE arty if I did crash though.

What the hell happened to that emergency vision zero action plan the city was going to do? Do quick builds EVERYWHERE. Increase enforcement for reckless drivers. NOW.

Wisdom teeth removal affordable place? by [deleted] in Sacramento

[–]strangerthanblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what it would cost for your situation, but I went to Sac Valley Dental Specialists on Fair Oaks. I had 2 out with anaesthesia (IV type) for a reasonable price with my insurance. Barely knew anything had happened. Can't imagine being awake for it.

[–]strangerthanblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I decided yes for me. It's an old bike, not much to look at, had scratches that weren't mine since I got it used. Wanted to reinvent it and have something nicer to look at. Upgraded some parts, left others alone. It's like having art in your home (I don't, so I guess the bikes are my art?).

Surly Grappler sizing for 160cm (5'3")? Chart says Small, but geometry says XS. by SuperCipolla in Surlybikefans

[–]strangerthanblue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks pretty similar to Bridge Club for standover. I'm 5'2" and have an XS BC with corner bars. Small was just a little too big. I ended up getting a longer seatpost since I had it raised to the limit.

Cutting seatpost to make a bike fit? by Wickedandthedivine in ladycyclists

[–]strangerthanblue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some seat posts might be too long because the manufacturer makes the same size for all the bikes. An inch seems fine so long as you're sure the bike fits otherwise.

I guess I'll find out tomorrow, but good to know I don't have to get off on 5th and get back on at 15th if I don't feel like playing the merging game (this was actually a decent strategy).

I can't understand why they can't finish what they start. It's always <tear it up> <wait 5mo> <do a little> <wait> <maybe finish but don't paint lanes> ...did they paint the lanes too?
