And the appropriate head pin for my bike.

http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/pit-bull-hybrid-headlift-stand




A set of these in the size my bike requires. Pirelli Angel GT. Coincidentally also from Revzilla



I'm basically 12 years old with decades of experience. This is for a friend though, as a semi gag gift, since they're one of those slow, cautious drivers. If the quality is high enough I might grab one in red for a laugh to go with my bike keychain.

This isn't recent but since I'm talking keychains, I bought one of these https://motoloot.com/products/god-of-death-motorcycle-keychain shortly after my accident in the fall as a kind of gently caress you to fate. Haven't had any close calls since!




Now I'm glad gas prices have tanked because I'm going to be hurting a bit after spending this much right now, and I'm going to want to get out and ride a whooooooooole lot more with some fresh rubber. But I'll be able to do a bunch of maintenance on my bike way easier with that stand, and save some money in the long run. I already had a fork-lift stand but one of my next tasks is going to be refreshing the fork oil which kind of negates its value.

Pitbull stands are good. Not a fan of touring tires though. Corsas or bust.

I'm an old fat guy who does mostly highway miles in all sorts of weather, I need something long-wearing that does well in the cold and wet as well as the dry and warm. I had a set of Angel GTs on my last bike that I put on in the spring and ~10k miles later in the fall still looked practically new.

I'm considering going up to Mount Washington in NH this year. I'd have to put a brand new set of Corsas on before I left and it'd be almost time to replace them shortly after getting home. Though with this stand it'll be less of a pain in the rear end to pull my wheels for tire change time than fiddling about with the fork stand and forks without an axle between them.

After leaving my key in the ignition of the sumo yet again last night, I vowed to pick up a "remove before flight" style tag ASAP that would be more eyecatching. This is AWESOME and I've purchased it. Thank you.

No arguments here, that's just the standard nomenclature in the US. Basically if it's not ground meat, it's immediately a classified as a sandwich which is a pretty catch all term.

That's what that table is specifically for due to territory issues. And the room it's normally in is being worked on.

Nakiris are rad, sorry man. Or get a chinese cleaver which is basically a roided out Nakiri, you will be so happy.

I want a Bunka though, it's like the best of both worlds of gyuto/nakiri action.

CONTENT: I bought a very very old (like, pre-WWII) CCM bicycle. I don't have a good picture of it but I'm going to restore it and make it sweet again.

You are dumb as those things radiate mad head because they sit in the middle of the room and are not build into the wall. Also wood is amazingly renewable and a pretty great way to heat a well insulated house, assume you don't live in an arctic poo poo hole.

I had an apartment with a fireplace like this, and the chimney routed up through an open space next to the stairs to the second floor, so it continually radiated heat on both the ground and upper levels. It fuckin' ruled.

Also as a pilot I have a burning need for that insert before flight keychain.

They are extremely pretty, and the shop near me has a bunch of ornamentals. Also one of the only tarantulas with venom that can have a noticeable effect on humans, too. Im thinking I might get an emperor scorpion and a flower mantis and try to cap myself at that before i end up with a massive stockpile of bugs in my spare room. I would love to have a massive enclosure for a golden orb weaver to build webs in though.

It's absolutely bog standard with a replaced and properly torqued head so aside from a bit of crustiness underneath and a hole in the exhaust it's not in bad condition. It needs work but it's not going to get any worse considering it had sat outside for 3 years untouched.

I picked this up on steam:




It's a little overpriced at launch seeing as you can beat the "campaign" in a handful of hours, but holy crap is it good, there are challenge/endless modes, and the developers are already pipelining free add-on content. For those not in the know, it's a minimalist FPS where time only moves when you move/look/shoot. Basically, you have to do crazy John Woo poo poo in order to survive (knocking guns out of people's hands into your own, dodging bullets, cutting rounds out of the air with a sword, throwing objects at people to stun them, etc.), and it's almost as much a puzzler as it is a shooter in some sections.
