All I know for sure is, if you're not running different pressures front/rear, then you're not part of the cool crowd.

Ummmm ... build it high, build it skinny?

And in my 30 years of mountain biking, I've had the opposite experience!

Okay, so first ... thank you from the bottom of my heart for correctly calling it Daylight SAVING Time, not savingS time!  It's not a fxxxing bank account!

I may be in the minority, but I actually like the DST system.  The worst thing, imo, is having to endure the endless bitching and moaning about DST twice/year.  All this silliness about "increased accidents" and so on are just a diversion that appeals to people that are so resistant to change that they can't handle an hour of time change.  People fly across time zones every single day and adjust to 1, 2, 3 and more hours of time change and nobody whinges about that!

Rant over, the sun is coming out for what's shaping up to be a gorgeous Monday, can't wait to finish off my work cause Imma hit some trails this afternoon!

That's gorgeous! I have a pic from when we rode that trail, but much later in the season so no wildflowers in bloom.

Kn.

Did he crash or was he ordered to do pushups for being a "bad boy"?

:scream:

Nice helmet.

For a real challenge, ride the line between the two wood ramps.

> Gerbil Cage! I saw them pulling a British guy out of this stunt on a stretcher.

Not the gerbil cage. This pic is the Zipper.

Well, Ted and Heidi Cruz are "fervently" praying this time, so that should help.

didn't he start Paypal, Space-x and Tesla?  I would say he delivers?

Let's look at some of his promises: 

Promised to rescue the Thai kids trapped in a cave. Not only did he fail to do so he accused one of the actual rescuers of being a pedo. 

Promised to supply a bunch of intubators to hospitals. Supplied cpap and bipap machines instead. 

Promised to rebuild Puerto Rico power grid with solar. Never did. 

Promised to clean the water in Flint. Never did.

Promised to give away half his fortune. Gave away less than 1% 

Started selling cybertrucks in 2019 which still don't exist. 

Master of smoke and mirrors.

Almost all of this is untrue.

Also the daily wire is Ben Shapiro’s propaganda rag that is stoking the outrage machine so that he can grift off of it for every last dime.

Maybe.  Maybe he is just telling the truth and most today don't like it since it makes them face the reality that their ideology is flawed.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ....

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA ....

wait wait

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Oh, you were serious?

Isnt the speed limit 90 anyways through that stretch of hwy?

You might argue that anyone faster than 90 is breaking the law, but those staying in the left lane when others are trying to go faster are *also* breaking the law. To wit, BC MVA, [RSBC 1996] CHAPTER 318 Part 3, Section 151.1 ...

When drivers must not use leftmost lane

151.1 (1)In this section, "leftmost lane", in relation to a laned roadway to which this section applies, means the lane that is furthest to the left of the marked lanes available for traffic proceeding in the same direction, other than

(a)a bus lane,

(b)a high occupancy vehicle lane, or

(c)a designated use lane.

(2)This section applies to a laned roadway if

(a)there are 2 or more marked lanes available for traffic proceeding in the same direction, other than a bus lane, a high  occupancy vehicle lane or a designated use lane,

(b)the speed limit is at least 80 km/h, and

(c)the actual speed of traffic is at least 50 km/h.

(3)A driver of a vehicle in the leftmost lane must exit the lane on the approach of another vehicle in that lane, if it is safe to do so, except when

(a)overtaking and passing a third vehicle,

(b)allowing traffic to merge,

(c)preparing for a left hand turn at an intersection or into an exit, a private road or a driveway, or

(d)passing an official vehicle stopped on the side of or on the roadway.

If those drivers are really there every day doing 90 in the left lane like you say, your options are:

• Keep getting upset about them. Rant about it in NBR.
• Don't give them any thought and just pass them on the right.
• Slow down to 90 yourself and go with the flow. Save gas, money, and the environment. You'll be home a few minutes later worst case but won't be upset at the other drivers.

The point being that "the flow" is greater than 90, and most are going with the flow. It only takes one to disrupt said flow.

Edit: the only times I've paid for gas in the past 8 years is when renting a car on a work related trip.

How fast is this so called "fast lane"? Definitely faster than the car ahead of you right!? I stick to the travel lane and use the passing lane as needed, which is often. Camping out in the "fast lane" expecting to do 20-30 over at all times is silly.

Speed limit is not the important factor. If people are stacked up behind you, and passing you on the right, you are in the wrong lane.

Well, for one, they want the freedom to have a known racist give a speech at the foot of the veterans' memorial.

Dorsey is in Musk's side.  What more does anyone need to know.

Yeah, there's the problem. Those celebrating the most about Musk's "free speech" plan for Twitter all seem to be some of the most vile people in the US political landscape. Tucker Carlson, Caitlin Jenner, Gym Jordan ... etc etc etc.

That doesn't bode well.

I think it might be more than just Manitoba

That is an article about free speech rights in Canada vs US, but misses my point entirely.

1st amendment rights in America are different than 1st amendment rights in Canada

Because the 1st amendment to Canada's constitution adds Manitoba as a province.
