  1. Eben is a good writer. Funny article. I've got five bikes and ride them all. I think if I had to, I could get down to two, but it would be hard. https://www.outsideonline.com/outdoor-gear/bikes-and-biking/how-to-get-rid-of-bikes/ So how many bicycles should one person have? Well, there’s no consensus on this matter. For some riders one single speed may be enough, and for others ten bikes with twenty gears apiece might be scarcely sufficient. Of course, cycling philosophers have ruminated on this question since the days of the penny-farthing, and according to the oft-cited Rule 12 of the Velominati, the equation for the correct number of bikes is as follows: The correct number of bikes to own is n+1. While the minimum number of bikes one should own is three, the correct number is n+1, where n is the number of bikes currently owned. This equation may also be re-written as s-1, where s is the number of bikes owned that would result in separation from your partner. However, the Velominati rules are stupid and should be ignored in most cases. The Velominati also says you shouldn’t use a saddlebag, which is like saying you shouldn’t keep a spare roll of toilet paper in the bathroom.
  2. I think you quoted the wrong person. I do not own a cat nor are those my words.
  3. As always, Kirby has the best answer. Can I roll my eyes anyway, just for fun?
  4. Sorry RG. My GF and I do some things together and some alone. We've done multi-day bikepacking trips, climbing, hiking, and skiing. We have not climbed the Grand together. Maybe this summer. Some days we will go mt. biking together and she will send me on a longer route or extra lap. Some of it we will ride together. When we ski, I am the sherpa carrying food and extra layers. Twice recently, I did give her the wrong ski poles.
  5. I will agree to disagree. Spring is the fourth best season after all of the others. Winter, summer, and fall are superior. Spring represents the end of ski and fatbike season and the beginning of mud season.
  6. The bottom of the sink is just above my knee. I'm always hunched over when washing the pans.
  7. Stainless steel. I hate it. It's too deep. Always looks like shit and scratches if you look at it funny.
  8. I don't know anyone in WY that has glass coverage. Most companies do not offer it. You see a lot of cracked windshields here.

    Hey Kzoo

    @Kzoo By locking your own thread, you took away our opportunity to ridicule you. I think you should have to wear this for a week.
  10. Well played. Who writes your material?
  11. How does one sew with milk thread?
  12. My yogurt. It is delicious. *WFFA/Raw Milk Product: Unstrained Plain Yogurt with a cream top The yogurt is made from the raw milk produced by Lola, Henrietta and Olga our three pasture raised, A2A2 Jersey Cows.
  13. Just got a delivery today
  14. You should take it to Dottle's guy and offer $300 cash.
  15. I expect three years. Remember when DieHards had a lifetime warranty? Now it's two years.

    On your bike

    The lycra gang are out in force. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C3aMRkhMd0o/?igsh=M3RnOW93Zzd0cmhx
  17. Baking soda and water. Takes about a minute.
  18. Jeans and flannel in the winter. Shorts and t-shirts in the summer. What's not to like? Plenty of ski and bike riding clothes. A few hats. I'm good.
  19. You don't clean them?
  20. Romance novels have moved from the mass market format to larger trade paperbacks with covers like this
  21. It's all about the HEA. This is worth watching.
  22. If you just hooked up the batter and the connection is loose? Whose fault is it if not yours? Neighbor kid? $330 seems cheap for a new windshield. Are you sure it's glass and not some plastic wrap?
  23. Not everywhere. Depends on the state.
  24. I heard nothing. Not a good sign.
