Dyson Cordless Battery Adapters for Power Tool Batteries
racinfarmer replied to racinfarmer's topic in Current Events
The original made it maybe 2 years, the 2 knock-off replacements haven't even made it 4 months each. -
I have found a way to finance riding next season. Bet I have a gallon ice cream pail full of these, if not 2 of them.

Sounds like the guy that ran the fair on Fargo. I swear fair boards bring him in to get rid of race tracks. There was no way in hell that track was going to exist while he was there. He did it to another fair down in Kansas or someplace like that in the last year or so. Fargo got the track back and going thanks to a lot of dedicated locals, but shortened it from a big half miler. Good track too.

2024 Arctic Cat Catalyst 'Chassis' details?
racinfarmer replied to Crnr2Crnr's topic in HCS General Forum
Maybe it is just an issue with all the 8000 and 9000 riders who never really use the brake since they ride at like 20mph anyway. -
2024 Arctic Cat Catalyst 'Chassis' details?
racinfarmer replied to Crnr2Crnr's topic in HCS General Forum
How do you get chatter from a brake rotor at idle? As in loose tolerancing? I get chatter (pulsing) on the scallops rotors out trail riding, but that is all I've really noticed. -
I went from a Trek Session DH bike to a Cannondale XC bike of somekind to nothing. I think anything semi-modern is a big improvement from either of those for riding in western MN.

Found a Rocky Mountain I might try to make time to go look at tomorrow. Will probably be too wet to be in the fields. Don't have a ton of requirements. Fox fork and/or shock, Shimano 1x12, slacker headtube angle, modernish frame (2020 or newer ideal), sub-$2500. Seems like it would be easy(ish) to find, but not really.

To hell with the GGB stuff, he needs himself a Sno-Stuff Stumble Pack Does Argo assemble their own ATV's and whatnot? You'd think if they don't Cat could be a good acquisition for them to move that in house.

The Audi and BMW leasee crowd has flocked over to Teslas. I am uninterested in owning a Tesla of any variety. There were 2 Urus's floating around Hood Cloud when we were there. A pearl white one and a lighter blue one. I thought they were neat at first, but now they are kind of meh. I'd rather have one of the Rambo Lambos that live a sad life in this state. Tesla Boy at work tried to lemon law his like 4 times before they pretty much banned him from the dealer/service center? He still talks with a couple of the younger engineers here. That kid has issues.

My parents don't let me us the plane anymore. I'm pissed.
-
Wish they'd just sell to Argo, take the L on the books, and put us all out of this misery.

For most mountain bikes, I need a large. Almost everything I've found that I've considered buying is either not a large, almost the same price as new, or sells right away. I can't just drop what I'm doing and drive 3 hours to the Cities to buy something. Maybe I need to be less picky? F it. If I'm spending this kind of money, I'm buying one I want and know I'll ride.

81 Million Pushes 44.6% Capital Gains Tax
racinfarmer replied to ArcticCrusher's topic in Current Events
The problem is once you "Eat the Rich" for the top 5%, society keep going. Eventually, you are the top 5%. Then what? -
I liked the 29'er I had. I rolled through stuff way faster so I could hit shit and eat shit harder. It was a XC bike, so it steered like a road bike on the trails. Not good on the downhills at all. I'm leaning towards a Nukeproof Scout or Commencal of some kind if I go with a hardtail or a Polygon Siskiu T8 or T9 if I go full squish squish. Possibly a Commencal FS with the Ohlins too.
-
Anyone ride a enduro style bike all around in MN? Not finding a decent Polygon T8 in large right now, but found a Marin Alpine for a couple hundred more, but it is an enduro bike vs. trail bike. Also looking at various hardtails that meet the spec I'm after, used of course.

As if you didn't enjoy your grocery bills enough already...

Both our Keurigs quit working. Picked up the cheapest coffee pots the small town Wally had, $9 each on sale, and $3 worth of filters. No Ragrets. -
New poll shows RFK Jr.'s campaign could sink Trump
racinfarmer replied to Crnr2Crnr's topic in Current Events
Like I said, when the Democrats trot out whichever turd sammich it is they are running, all the Bernie Bros and Yang Gang and the like fall right in line and vote for the D. It happened when the brought out the old dull battle ax Hilldog and when the propped up Biden and Kamala Quota. -

Bought one bottle and got one for free of that stuff in my vodka drinking days. The free one was the 1.75L. Think those were like $125 or so back then. Not a fan, personally. Made lemon, orange, and grapefruit juices taste really bitter to me. -

Ever listen to the Dan Aykroyd cast?
