That sounds like it's revving hella high, what's the redline? Is it higher than the 9000 of the new BMW i6? Cause you could put some loud pipes on that too and sound just as good but also have integrated GPS and heated seats. Just sayin.

After five minutes in their natural element all dirt bikes look the same anyway, i.e. two wheels and a pile of mud.

MetaJew posted:How do I learn to ride a bike like that if my parents would never let me on a dirtbike when I was a kid and learning was easy and injuries healed fast? Buy a cheap dirt bike on craigslist, good armor and boots, and then go huck it down some trails/dunes/abandoned pit mines. Or, much like street bikes, find a dirt riding school.

I started riding enduro bikes when I was 32. It is the funnest thing in the world, even on a complete poo poo pile. I haven't been gravely injured yet. But yeah I agree, where were my parents on this poo poo? My wife and I have vowed to at least offer exposure to the sport. One of the kids on my flag football team's parents take him and his brother out on dirt bikes. Makes me green with envy, and the kid is 10.

I've been to that bay at the end of the twisty road at 0:38! It's called Hoddevik. Not on a bike, went there by boat. My gf got a surfing class for her 30th and I tagged along. Almost got up on the board once! Very fun. http://stadsurfing.no/ https://vimeo.com/4642973 The forest shots might be in Sweden or elsewhere in Norway. There are not many trees around Hoddevik, it's a pretty bare and windswept place. Still, you should definitely go there.

Get a 5/4 wetsuit with gloves and boots and you can easily surf down to snowing and upper 30s water temps. Also, obviously, good job husky.

But the waves were newbie friendly and with the (4 or 5 mm) wet suit and the physical activity, I experienced sweating underwater for the first time.

titanium posted:Thats really creepy and no one should do that. Yeah, considering the...surprisingly intimate feelings people (men) seem to develop toward (women's) feet, I could see it being viewed as somewhat creepy. I interpreted it as more, "Hey, don't stick your feet out of the window; if there is a crash you could get maimed." Edit: he did get real close to that car, tho. Assuming the driver is paying attention and won't do a quick lanechange-while-texting is taking a significant risk at the best of times.

More a personal space thing, I think. Manhandling someone in order to give unsolicited advice about something that's not going to hurt anyone but them is kinda super loving weird.

Meh, that's happened to me before. We get backed up traffic everywhere but the HOV lane so you can plug along at 50-60 while the lane next to you is stopped. People pull into that from a stop.
