some new TGR forum member with about 5 posts asks a stupid question about some product he/she is trying to promote on the wbz with a link to click on

so they don't care about what they talk...

my mother learned very quickly not to put pants on little xxx-er that were not dark cuz he always came back dirty,

of course dark was still dirty but they don't look dirty SO black pants...

What I see is the light colors that are highly susceptible to dirt while getting out of the car, damn near anywhere you brush up against, black glop off the chair cable and if that don't kill it ......

I skied with Neil Warren the main man ( the only man) at Alpine threadworks last feb, 3 of his longtime clients were also there and they all had one of his packs, the packs were custom made with...

This is how they talk to one another

They don't really care what kind of food

or what y'all are doing

they really just want you to talk to them

something Racey going on here or is Lee just cheap ?

It sound like maybe you work on an assembly line at GM if you have personaly tightened 10,000 fastners

in any case now you know something about bicycles

I had demo bindings on wailer 112's so I could try lots of mounting points, I found moving the binding back made the ski feel like a boat that wouldn't get up on a plane, IME mounting back of center...

Well buddy jogged my memory, this was back before people trimmed skins cuz all skis were 67 mm wide

I emailed buddy for training advice and he helped me out, his training recs even worked.

Neil Young also quit the smoke so I read

I hear people complain about stripping the dynafit torx screws ?

Ha never heard this , but yeah they sure stripped rsdy

Back in the day when skis were just getting crazy fat( we are talking sumo's and leather tele boots) i was on a week long hit trip with guy who did this and it seemed ok, he was a bit curmudgeonly so...

Wow, can I drink your bathwater ?

all you gota know is that black is a slimming color

All them chi-chi tones just make yer ass look fat

but of course really its your fork that makes your ass look fat

Its not like chosing wife where you find someone you hate and give her your house

be happy cuz thats nothing ^^ compared to Sharons collection of Acrterxy and Lee never complains

you need to grit your teeth when you do it

So consider if OP could build his own fukcing computer he wouldn't be asking you what computer he wants

I think you might want to read about this stuff if you are tightening any Torque-to-yield fasteners, from what I briefly read you never reuse a fastener cuz you tight the shit out of it till it...

Yeah you need an iron closer to 100W IME, I had a good one that burnt out and the last one I got isnt strong enough

sometimes I forget about the heat and start to mangle the screw,

heating up...

not very common in dentistry ...just sayin

This isnt really much of a comment to try for the witty comeback

I just try to be stiff enough

you never know how a binding was mounted so if you get a stubborn screw use heat BEFORE you fuck up the screw, a soldering iron works good OR if you don't have an iron mount a 1/4" drill bit...

I've got a Racillio Sylvia/ capresso infinity at home and a breville roma and capresso grinder at GF's place,

so its very possible to spend < 300$ for the burr grinder & ok espresso machine
...

" Made in China doesn’t really mean anything " well that would be my point ... cuz everything is made in China,

cuz my people can do it just as well but way cheaper

I bought Canadian ( over...

I think the key is that she unloads the DW

I go 40 on a day pack cuz a larger pack carries skis better, fits everything and you can always leave shit out if you want

I use a Rab helmet holder to keep the helmet outside

its important...

I've had a Capresso (Jura) infinity 560 burr grinder for about 7 yrs, pretty cheap at just over 100$ and they get a pretty good rating

Its worked so well I got another one for an xmas present to...

Absolute Torch and Twang^^ but perhaps a bit too alternative

Intuition are THE hands down standard for aftermarket boot liners, Dalbello & Scarpa source their liners from Intuition

Everyfuckingthing around you is made in china, the computer you read this on...

back in the day most torque wrenchs you seen for automotive or motorcycles were the beam style and they worked fine

You will get a nose bleed from the increased stack height

But seriously I have a couple pair I use in bounds becuz they came on used skis and no problems here

I do have real touring setup's...

Yeah I used to call it Mecca

I would always make the shopping list & schedule 2 or 3 hrs in the Broadway store to stock up on shit, the north Van store is not bad, there is also a store at the ...

yeah that ^^ came up fairly recently but I can't say I ever noticed, probably because I have always self-identifyed as a white kid from Burnaby having grown up in that formerly white Vangroovy...

probably the heyday of Mech was back-in-the-day when they were in that big yellow building on maybe 6th/Cambie in Vangroovy, there was the Taiga store right across the street with their free parking...

never used chains myself but I read about a hack to help with putting chains on where they took a 12" piece of 3/4" Plywood, screwed some wood scraps on top so the chain can sit in spaces left,...

I used to love the hard copy catalogue and when it arrived I think the ski season was right around the corner, a lot of them ended up in the John as reading material that could really move you.
...

This is an old thread cuz I hadnt peeled off a top plate yet and started whining about what a fucking shitty design the Rad1 lifters are

she has to rotate not pry like it is a lever but good luck...

I don't buy near as much from them as I used to , probably cuz I have 2 of everything or maybe its their product line?

And do they really need so many stores and it would be nice if they got back ...

just put them tools in Random order ... an oxymoron ?!

IME you want a GF who has her own snowblower

MY ex GF wanted Haks for her car, I told her they were more expensive than the car was worth sothere were cheaper alternatives

she asked what tires...

if you leave the hook ^^ screwed into the frame it will rust permanently into the hole

With a fresh set of studded haks I could plow thru a foot of new pow in my golf

maybe the problem is...

the 2 humps over before the gulley by crater lakegulleys over on the extreme skiers right of the prairie, short shots low angle and apparently you don't wana go too low

blue bird and cold, the 3...
