How has no one mentioned the "surviving a catastrophic airframe failure at hypersonic speed" thing? The whole plot was dogshit but that stands alone.

But, what if the plot actually goes much...

Holy. Shit.

Bill Maher spent 4 years telling people Trump would not willingly leave office if he lost the 2020 election. Everyone called him a drama queen and dismissed the notion out of hand. Anyone who...

"The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice."

It's hard to not get freaked out when it bends the other way, especially when it seems that it may be about to bend backward...

Need this thing in Honeycomb. Pretty good size tree down not far from the top. Probably just small enough to get with a saw this size.

Scapular body is no big deal at all. Painful and sucky but they heal up great. When I did my clavicle and scapula together my ortho didn't even bother with follow up x-rays on the scapula.

12 weeks is pretty standard for a basic grade 2 AC separation. Yours was much worse so 6-12 months seems like a reasonable expectation.

LOL at "investor's dream!"

It's like the LSD missile silo in reverse.

I can't picture how a drift will get the cups out of the eyelet. I'm trying to move the whole kit over to a new shock, not just replace the bearings.

I took it to my preferred LBS who is a Rocky...

The good news is that all bikes are awesome these days. The bad news is that $2k will only buy a fairly low-end full suspension bike, especially if you are buying from a shop and not one of the...

You should be scared.

On the STR topic:

Short-term rentals made up nearly 43% — almost half — of Park City's housing stock in 2020....

Exactly, solution in search of a problem. I highly doubt it makes a meaningful difference in small bump performance. The Enduro version of the tool is in stock. It costs twice as much as Rocky's...

As an alternative it would seem I can buy a new bearing set for $40 since you only need the tool to remove and not install. That's probably more than what the shop will charge to swap them to a...

I just figured out that swapping shocks on my kid's bike is going to require a $120 tool or a trip to the shop. Eyelet bearings can fuck right off.

PM sent!

Phil's is the best desert XC evar!

Results got posted online today and further review yielded some awesomeness. Turns out AC beat the women's Cat 1 winner (by almost 1.5 minutes, and she started before the hail!) and thus had the...

Is there a reason you need a physical map? I'd highly recommend just using Trailforks, especially if you plan to ride Park City at all. Staying in the valley or somewhere else? Looking for quick...

Dark Hollow Super D was epic. Full-on hailstorm at the start and pedaled the Sydney Peaks section drenched with knumb fingers. It let up at the pond and after that it was on, cool temps and prime...

That goddam brilliant.



That's at least half of my rides on porcy :D

It's been way too long since I've done it. I really need to suck it up and deal with the shitshow so I can get the kiddo...

I split my shin open 3" long to the bone a few years ago. It was pretty gnarly, the front desk lady at the clinic kind of freaked when she saw it. Luckily I was only about a mile from the bottom and...

Tell me you don't have kids without telling me you don't have kids ;)

Sorry man, best of luck to you however this works out.

If we're throwing a grammar Nazi party I'll add the use of "have got" instead of simply "have." In speech it's hard to avoid and I'm guilty myself, but in writing it's inexcusable.

6-mile backcountry descent (re)built by our very own raisingarizona. Gotta be fit to be fast but fitness alone won't win it. No mass start BS either, racers run at 2-minute intervals.

Without bothering to look at any of the data, my take is that is they've cut prices from "absurd" to "slightly less absurd." There are far worse places to live than Provo, but it's every Utah...

Lots of spots still open for the Brianhead Dark Hollow Super D this Sunday.

Ford 5.4 owner here. I figure bike commuting is saving me at least $100/mo and work isn't even that far away.

Wait, I thought you had an Ohlins fork on the Gnarv?



I was up Days on Saturday. Two get-offs for deadfall a little ways below the flash flood blowout spot, a couple small snow patches in the...

If the fx is non-symptomatic that muddies the waters even more. I'd definitely get at least one more opinion. I'd lean toward surgery for a young active person who participates in sports with a...

I'd replace them. The permanent 10-year batteries in the new ones make it worth the cost. You can't put a price on no more 3:00 am beeping. Maybe wait a bit to see if they go on sale.

Ribs definitely can be too tender. Mine come out perfect w/o crutching, but that may be due to using a propane grill.

That would make a lot more sense.

Good guidelines for acromion fx treatment don't seem to exist, but no callous formation and more displacement at 7 weeks would seem to indicate surgery:
...

Something seems way off here. "Bodyweight" air pressure, which I assume means 150-200 psi, is super high for a fork so it's really weird that it would still feel too soft.

Indeed. Now he's got to graduate to spare ribs.

It should basically cook the same. I'd probably give it a bit less smoke and crutch it earlier, but shoot for the same final target temp.

Anyone know what the snow situation in the Stansburys is?

"Sentient" is debatable, but that transcript is pretty crazy. It probably helps that it's talking to a Google engineer. It may be less impressive against someone from GenPop.

These Herban Empire guys are pretty good. A friend's daughter is in the movie so this is extra cool.

JFC, the drug use number is patently false.

Wow, and I thought the hoardes of slowpokes in Draper last night were bad. Time go hide in Beartrap, Days, Honey and Silver for the rest of the summer. If those get busy all hope is lost.
...

No freestroke adjustment on the Dominions. They're already factory-tuned to be as short as possible. And, LOL, turns out the caliper-side seal fell out and I didn't notice.

Oh FFS, it's 31 million tons of ore. Assuming a typical concentration of 1 oz/ton that's about 900 metric tons of gold total, which is about 1/3 of annual global production and worth about $50...
