The country roads close to the Alabama border in Northwest Florida are special. Low traffic, good pavement, enough elevation but not excessive. Most, but not all have a dedicated bike lane. Pretty much the best I have ever found. I suppose you are serious.It doesn't take long to figure out if someone went to KU or K-State.
I was thinking about taking up road biking. Anyone know any good roads to ride down the middle of?
OBTW, when our son was stationed at McConnell AFB at Wichita Kansas, Frankly you had to get way out into the country to get away from really scary drivers. But then again, winds are present. So stout they will slow you down when you are going down hill (Yes there are hills in parts of Kansas) But on the return route, have been riding at 20+ MPH, watching a leaf fall to the ground right beside me. It too was going 20mph due north, jsut as I was, as well as gently falling downwards.
This is redundant. I think everyone knows that if Land Rovers are your thing, they need fixing…Landrovers

She is trying to enhance your stamina and holding powerGrowing a pair of nuts is a good hobby…..
Then skip the dumb chick stuff and go shooting.
My fiance does that crap with her friends.
But doesnt like crowds and usually rather get up early for a hike and enjoy some basic grub from our packs and coffee in the mtns than do vineyards or other hipster crap pushed by social media.
She loves sports though.
Mostly KU basketball (alum) and gymnastics.
I either do stuff outside or in my reloading room while she does that.
Occasionally watch and tease her about why she wants me watching a bunch of fit 20 yr old chicks in skin tight clothes when I got a good woman on the couch beside me?
She laughs and gets me another beer.
Indeed it is.
And look, I’m no better. I’d buy a sports car and/or import a diesel engined G-class yesterday if I could
Ice hockey. Don’t waste your time with that gay roller hockey shit.
Well. The wife drives a G Wagon.....youngest son Landrover, me landrover (oldest son a Mini
)Owned every iteration of Discovery/ LR ever made. Plus 23 years of British Army service and every landrover ever fielded.
From the factory - change tyres - go anywhere with long guns / shotguns / Labradors and camping gear, and I mean anywhere, they're not a lifted jeep but go anywhere I want to go with dogs and guns
If you can afford a Second hobby, then you are not doing the shooting one correctly.........
Dogs, upland, landrovers are all a part of " shooting" So i could say I don't have a second hobby just one diverse one that's Shooting all around
I used to be a Merc tech, that’s my bias. And I had to do just enough work on British cars to not ever want to do it againWell. The wife drives a G Wagon.....youngest son Landrover, me landrover (oldest son a Mini

Apart from loving all you posted. I need to spotlight / highlight - Port.........you Sir are a rare beast in N America.
If you care to take time to review a picture i posted of my gun room, you'll see a few bottles aitting there
I see a lot of dust on a lot of things in that room. You know they melt if you dont use them, right? I can help you keep them from melting!
a Softride on 650bs, huh?
Hate to break it to ya, but you and I are old
all the cool kids are riding TT bikes with disc brakes and carbon wheels.
The beam bike made a small comeback a few years ago, but I haven't seen em since.

Single guy, fit, trim, snipped....I have a pink hobby.
Just kidding, I cant fucking stand most women today.

Dusting is my wife's remit.......however by way of other excuses....the optics and rifles / shotguns / pistols are clean and used. As for the booze collection dust is a clear ID of aging as for my military detritus that also deserves some dust (just like me) as been retired for 10 years now
he's got a number on. More than likely a closed course
Now me? I'M in the middle of the lane *when I need to be.*

The new TBI motor is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up.
Brewing beer, golf, and downhill riding. Also planning on starting a reef tank soon. I already have the tank and stand and I will be working on he plumbing soon. I also bought 3 jeeps last year. Planning on building 2 of them. My problem is prioritizing where my money goes...
Here's part of a hatch from this morning on the Madison just upstream of Earthquake Lake.
You'll want to zoom in.
Yeah, all of those dots are bugs.
Half Ironman 1998. I broke my back and crushed my discs in a parachute accident which left me paralyzed. Recovered but I had to ride a Softride due to the pain. I also had a "Slingshot" which i didn't like as much. Before the accident I had a super stiff Kirk Precision magnesium frame. Was considering turning Pro before my accident. I actually did very well in triathlon afterwards for a guy who should have been dead.

I like to sit on the toilet till my legs fall asleep.
Steeling memes and posting them elsewhere
my downstairs neighbor had one of those Mg frames. Looked neat, but hear they didn't ride very nicely
I was riding a Cannondale Criterium with blue 6sp 105 on it. Great bike for about 90min, then it was WAY too stiff

Nobody really liked them. I got my frame dirt cheap for $495 in 1991. I did pretty well on it, but the "coolness factor" definitely outweighed the performance factor.
Primarily Faguars and it was mostly one specific job that I had to do. When I was starting my mech career I was voluntold to do transmission recalls on the X-type. Thankfully, since I was the newb I was paid hourly. If I remember right that job only paid like 4.5hrs. I don’t remember how many I did it it was too many
This looks like fun
So.....are you saying you are both deaf and blind? Always heard fapping would make you go blind.
