I had a period like that for a while when I was playing EECH years ago. I would see radio towers that looked like the ones in game…
I thought that was an Arma screen shot on first glance…
Getting too old for humping super singles around. Panting like a bloody golden retriever.
I only recorder the easy bit as well lol
Yeah, that would’ve killed me.
The good news is, it’s only going to get worse.
Interesting, it takes me longer to get the tubeless tyres on my road bike rims than it took you to do that. Usually involves lots of swearing, similar panting and grunting.
Maybe I should use a sledge hammer as well.
This afternoon Mrs Bodge disturbed my VR session to let me know about some “amazing clouds” in the dusk sky - so I went for a look - armed with my SX160.
Yes, pretty smart - so we watched local TV news this evening and sure enough - the weatherman showed some photo’s very similar to mine, taken from a village about 10 miles north of us, and told us all about them.
Apparently they are formed at between 10 and 15 miles high, above the Arctic and consist of crystalline ice particles. The proper name is “nacreous”.
I thought my camera had been unable to capture their true look, from what i saw in the viewfinder display, but they did come out quite well, so pleased with that.
edit: just found a noospaper article about them today:
I have considered tubeless but tbh I can fix a flat in about 3-5min if I have CO2. A lot of times I don’t even need tyre levers to get the Conti GP 4-Seasons on the rim.
Daddy, why is that escaped prisoner humping that tyre? Is he a pervert?
But seriously, that’s some very impressive efficiency in labor. Stupid quick at zero dark thirty by the looks of it. And theres no sleet nor rain, bonza!
Ditto. Where were you last time I needed tyres fitted…
I am a child of the 70s and 80s. But I am also a man-child of the 2020s. The misogynist 70s me combined with the modern techno-anything-is-possible me wondered how I might replace @Victork2 with a bikini-clad Brie Larson or Scarlet Johannsen in the tire change video. Don’t see the appeal? You’re not imagining hard enough.
I’d totally sit in the van and watch that in the mirror
Christmas came early… Kai came over tonight to spend the night. He is a little under the weather but perked up when he got to my place… This is the first time he will spend a night here…and I’m spoiling him rotten…
Spoilt rotten or not, he looks happy. That’s the main thing
Totally agree. It was when I was commuting on my bike a few years ago and had a sense of humour failure after 3 punctures in a 12 miles/20km ride that I went that route.
I’ve gone back to conti 4 seasons tuned again now. Remvoving the fear of trying to get the tubeless tyre off if I needed to, with only small tyre levers was such a relief.
Still use tubeless on the MTB’s because of the benefit of low pressure grip.
Good for you mate. Have a great time.
Yeah, that looks way too much like work for my broken body. Kudos to you though. Now, the big question: Did you pressurize the tire with lighter fluid and a match?
Good on ya man! I agree, he looks happy to be there. I hope yall had a great time and he gets to feeling better soon.
btw, not gonna lie, those couches look super comfy. Slightly jealous.
Happy for you and Kai!
But…waaay too many pillows in the sofa for a bachelor pad!
Pleased for you @BeachAV8R. Plus you have an impeccable taste in lager. Stella is my absolute favourite
