In this glorious thread, I will track the stupid shit my dad buys. This will not include the copart fleet. Just random shit he blows money on in futile :waxer: attempts.

This week: a carbon bike that doesn't fit him. Because he never road his old bike from the early 2000s, he needed a new one.

Components seem :flaccid: front suspension is weak sauce.

Price was $1250 best I can tell from amazon.

I won't ride a bike without a Fox fork. My Fox cost as much as the rest of my bike and it's just lovely.

This weekend, his home brew shit will be here. I gather he has spent about $1500 in brew shit.

2 1/4 kegs +c02
taps
a fucking 10gal SS brew pot...

im not sure what else but he went full tard and thinks he will be making 10gal batches of beer. Ive tried to convince him for his first brew, to take it simple, make a small 5 gal batch and use a kit to learn the basics.

:nope:

I kind of want to buy a cheapass welder and try to burn my house down. Welding would be such a handy skill.

he bought a broken used golf course reel mower for super fine cuts. Paid $1500. drove a weekend to Arkansas...

spent a chunk fixing it. It half way works. He has never used it because it doesnt cut as well as his HD diesel mower or the batwing tractor...

Just pointing out some irony. Probably no point in trying to take dad's unused mower out to the gc. How is the golf course project going, btw? Operational?
