pipeline profile

My commuter bike is rocking a Gatorblade. Maybe its a collectable and i should remove it?

Nice article. Great to get these little bits of local history that are also part of the entire sport's history. Lets hear from Rod next!

Lip of a jump ex. Jonny took off the lip of the jump and overshot to flat and smashed his face into the dirt.

Poor Jonny!

I appreciated Falcon's candour, hope he comes back. The Liberals really screwed up by not making him Leader/Premier.

What exactly is a "lip" in this context?

Cut an old tube, wrap around, use contact cement to glue together.

Cute. My trail dog liked it too but thought the terrain was a bit tame.

Hijack: anybody ridden in Oakridge Oregon? It looks nice.

how do logging roads not fall in the gravel road category?

ive gotten my honda accord through some gnarly terrain.granted i dont give a shit about itlol

Well, yah, that goes for just about any car. If you bought an Element you didn't give a shite about, I think you might be able to get it pretty deep into the backcountry, but I wouldn't want to rely on it.

Logging roads may be gravel, but not all gravel roads are logging roads!

Check eBay for fixtures and deals.
Or as said before buy everything from plumbing supply places like Andrew sherat (sp?)
Cronkite ect.
As for going to 3/4 lines throughout your house; your plumbing system will have a presure drop since you'll increase the flow without increasing the presure.
Think more water but slower.
I am doing a basement gut and looked into upgrading all my lines to 3/4. (its 3/4 at the main supply down to 1/2 after the s/o valve.)
After I looked into it I'm sticking w the same sizes.

Totally wrong! Bigger dia pipe means less pressure drop per length of pipe run. Bigger pipe will get you more pressure at the fixture.

One reason not to go big on hot water lines is that you will wait longer for the water at the tap to get warm when you first turn it on. Because there's more cold stagnant water to flush out of tbe way.

Hmmmm … don't you think they could have dreamed up a better diversion than lining up 6,000 guys in daylight(landing at 5 am, in the middle of summer) for Jerry target practice? Sounds like bogus ass-covering to me.

'zactly.
