I went into the Rapha store in Boulder CO to try on the Knee Pads as people seem to like them. The pretentiousness of the store and people hanging out in there kept me from buying them. It was so over the top I felt like I was on a candid camera show.

I don't see a truck in the picture.

$8k in repairs? What did it take out? You sure it was a Turkey and not a boulder?

That hurt my head. I'm assuming if all the different calculators show a 95%+ success rate, that's maybe a good time to safely retire. I'm pretty sure managing the money post retirement is way harder than just saving the money and waiting. When and how to take out of...

If FiCalc says 98.3% chance, does that mean I should quit my job?

Of course when I looked after this discussion there was a one-day sale at Home Depot... Perfect for the remainder of the end link stuck in my sway bar...

For any spot that has mountain biking, there's gotta be an affect even if it's not noticeable. I just think of something as simple as how much more business the coffee shop in High Bridge gets just because of mountain bikers. I'd hit up a convenience store just to get a Gatorade before a ride...

I can tell you from speaking to the biggest bike shop in my town that the lack of E-Bikes on the trails has hurt their business. Their rental business has gone down as Florida people now refuse to ride regular bikes anywhere with hills. Tons of people just don't come to this area due to only...

I should have just gone that way. I forgot that if they lasted 40k that's like 8 years with the mileage I put on the car. Although a lot of that is basically off-road.

I sold my air tools when I moved as I didn't want to deal with a big air compressor. I actually was going to say "My biggest mistake was not buying the Milwaukee cut off wheel last year when on sale at Home Depot." Sawzall actually cut through everything quickly and surprisingly. It was...

Been struggling with garage organization. The back of my garage had a wooden shelving system that looked basically identical to this with the exception was it was white and had no adjustable shelves. The shelves were at the totally wrong height. Wife kept saying we could buy whatever garage...

Sometimes I just do things the hard way? I bought two struts for my car as they only had the driver's side in stock as a Bilstein, so I bought the passenger side as a Monroe Quick Strut. Yeah, doesn't match but it was $45 for a whole quick strut. For $45 I'll buy another one in 50k if I have...

Gravel? You mean Gravel Singlespeed! 62 feet is crazy over that distance.

I thought this was a Hyundai Genesis model from the back not an Aston-Martin. They need a new designer.

Car's been getting bouncy, time to replace the stock Struts/Shocks. This would have taken 1/10 of the effort if the first 100k wasn't spent on salted NJ roads in the winter. Since I knew this swap was coming I sprayed the mounting bolts and nuts with penetrating oil and had zero issue there...

Not saying E-Bikes are not going to get allowed, anything is possible. But pretty much every user group and everyone who runs the park doesn't want E-Bikes. With all the new faster E-Bikes I'm sure there's going to be a big push to keep them banned. They did a lot of out reach, public...

Dupont State Park. Western NC. Which this now made me think of the conversation I had with a guy who runs the bigger bike shop here. Tourism is down overall likely due to Helene, maybe economy? Typically they would have 20 bikes out on rental for the weekend and now it's 10. But due to...

Apparently the smaller signs weren't working. I'm assuming this is going to happen in a lot of places when they're overridden with Surrons.

Right. Then go down the list of other Fortune 2000 companies and figure on them dividing their cloud usage between AWS/Azure/Google.
