1500quidporsche posted:I didn't either it was just that we had to go to this loving conference and a co-worker asked to bum a cigarette. One of the guys that is closest to me in racing ability also does provincial crossfit competitions and weighs bang on 155. If I am pushing myself to keep my momentum up I can stick to him in the corners but he just walks away from me on the straights. I'll probably only do like 1 more race this year, and focus on school and dropping 40lbs before getting a kart proper (only been renting them so far) and getting a key to the track for next year.

Tekne posted:What's the write up with Victory/Indian motorcycles? They seem to make a better alternative to Harley and without the lifestyle garbage. The bikes are pretty cool but I had to laugh when my friend unzipped his jacket, which has the Indian logo across the chest, to reveal his t-shirt... with the exact same logo in the exact same place as the jacket.

While the Groms are cool - Kawasaki has officially thrown it's hat in the ring as well and it's better in every way. Team Green! https://www.kawasaki.ca/product/z125-pro

Yea but for grom money you could get a DRZ 400SM. Groms are stupid prices around me for such a tiny bike. I'm 6'3" so I aint buying one either way but still.

Speaking of quitting, my wife and I hit 90 days of sobriety and we're doing a lot better. I wasn't really having any problems with alcohol but knew that she wouldn't get better if I was drinking around her so I stopped as well. Already lost a few pounds of beer love handles and feeling way healthier than I have in years.

What's the point of a grom/z125 when you could just buy a ~125cc dirtbike and slap a road legal conversion kit on it?

In Alberta at least, unless the dirt bike is a dual sport from the factory they can never be plated for road use. Officially any way. Up here, you need insurance prior to getting your registration and no insurance company will insure a converted dirt bike unless the VIN is cleared from the manufacturer. Which they never are.

By that thinking, why the hell would I buy either one of those when I could buy this majestic creature: http://modesto.craigslist.org/mcy/5653668508.html Of course I'd also need to hit the Sanrio store post haste after taking ownership to slather Hello kitty stickers on it.

Hell, I know I'm slacking most of the time, and yet I get the best glowing reviews and performance awards, makes me realize just how terrible the average worker has to be. About the only thing I'm really proud of is my little model ships, and sadly, that's not exactly something that will get me anywhere in this world, but it makes me happy, so whatever, I keep doing it even if it doesn't matter to anyone else.

http://imgur.com/a/AcOcl I can get this 59 ford c600 DELIVERED TO MY HOUSE for scrap value tomorrow. Guy posted an ad and is taking it to the scrapers Friday if no takers (he is for real owns a big rear end farm and wants it gone). How bad of an idea would this be? Goal would be to turn it into a vintage food truck. Thoughts?

Idiots in cars still abound, though. I grew up around bikes but haven't ever had one of my own. Might happen, might not.

If it's a 22.5 it's one piece, if it's 20" it's a multi piece wheel. e;bike/scooterchat: I want a Ruckus My commute requires me to hit 50mph readily, so I can't justify it but I think they're the coolest loving things and I want one I could engine swap or hot rod the 49 but the idea of completely overhauling a vehicle so it can make my 12 minute trip to work seems a bit dumb.

Riding anything that isn't a sealed, climate controled box in traffic in Florida sounds like the most miserable experience. Enjoy those 90*, 90% humidity mornings! Enjoy literally choking on the air! I do like to ride my bike when I can, but holy poo poo, I loose like 10lbs in sweat just pedaling around the neighborhood.

Car polished, all that built up wax is gone and it actually has a nice built up shine. My arm is only 75% dead since a friend joined me and took over wiping duty while I used an applicator for the polish.
