How’s the home gym setup at the new place?

I need to price some stuff out, but we’re definitely getting a Peloton+ for the family to start. I need to find out who has what for racks and weights.

+1 for the Peloton cult.

Fuck

Also hello all.

Depends on the bike, tire compound, and riding style. Typically you'll go through 2 rears for every 1 front. The KTM has 1300 miles now and I can get maaaybe another 200 out of the rear. Front tire looks great still.

On the Tuono I was only getting about 800 miles or so on a rear. Granted it was almost exclusively fast mountain riding, and I probably couldve been more conservative with my tire pressure to extend the life.

I’m exploring camera mount locations on the KTM. I think I’ve got one that I like quite a bit and a couple more to try out that’ll be cool if they work like I think they will.

But in the mean time, this should tide you over viewtopic.php?p=481939#p481939

I just gave away my ping pong setup, it's been taking up garage space, and can damage cars if it tips over from its upright position.

An add stating "free" always hooks people, and I never have to pay to haul away shit that costs money to dispose.

I got rid of a bunch of stuff for free even in Hoth, crangslist free section listing and it's gone within an hour.

I just finished helping the dude load up his , turns out he is a body-man at Toyota, poking and prodding the unpainted body assemblies of the Rage4 prior to it going to paint-shop. He's on pat-leave watching the kiddos. It was a fun convo, since we both suckle the same corporate LOL

Not trying to suggest a thing but if you get a GoPro (maybe you have one) you could document your rides/vlog while riding and stay anonymous while doing it. Cool way to see if you can generate passive income.

We keep hiring people. But damn, attrition is a bitch too. Call centers so turnover is a thing.

I have a pong table I need to give away too.....

Also two broken down riding mowers..... I am hoping to find someone to take them for parts,,,,,,

There’s a dude that rides an Aprilla to my gym and even though Trav sold his, and lives in TN, I think he’s gonna be there every time I see it.

I ran into a coworker while volunteering at the vax clinic this AM, quite a small world we live in.

It always feels good to get old shit out of the house as well.

Yeah I’ve got a GoPro. The thought crosses my mind from time to time, it’s a lot of work to put a product out that people will consume, and even more work to do it consistently enough to build a following.

Would be easier if I had

Right? I can’t break 1000 followers on IG, but then I see moderately attractive chicks on there with 50k+ putting out garbage, but people follow because of and

Yeah, right now it’s just finding a niche and using it. I could definitely see if you vlog track days, the prep, the riding, and then the post-day maintenance would be interesting.

The YouTube algorithm is moving away from clickbait z0MG!! I DID WHAT TODAY?!?! Type of videos and it actually rewards people with more consistent views/likes/engagement more.

If you only get 10k subscribers but you have consistently 10k views and a few hundred likes on each video, the algorithm likes you more. I’ve seen channels that did the clickbait shit drop off like a rock. They used to get 500k+ views on YT now they are hovering 60-90k.

It’s 2021 man, no need to hide the goods. Just rock them with pride while you identify as Sawceina and compete in women’s classes and just shred.
