As a decades long bike mechanic, I can attest to this....if you have a 24 speed shifter system, you have, in effect, an 18 or 20 speed bike. There is absolutely no need to use the large chainring up front and any of the 2 or 3 largest in the back (and vice versa with the small chainring). In both cases, you’re working…

I’m originally from Texas, but have been in Germany for a couple of decades. I have always been fascinated by license plates. Here, plates aren’t so artistic as you might find in the States but they are cool in other ways. Here plates are federal, not issued by the individual states. So they look the same throughout…

That university hospital in Padua was the home of one Gabriele Falloppia, the so called inventor of the Fallopian tube back around 1555...

I pose my own car, but otherwise, I take pics of cars I encounter. Therefore I have to play the cards I’m dealt. You have to deal with the light given, the positions available, etc. Most of the time, the owner can just drive away at any moment. I’ve been very lucky over the years, but have squandered opportunities as…

Has Steven Miller written all over it!

Another day, another vindictive Trump edict. Happens every day, relentlessly. Can’t trust a person who is proud to be a bully.

Please, please, please !!!!!

Is that an Aztek with a slight costume change?

I always love it when I read the headline for these, then go straight to voting CP. Don’t read the details, don’t put it to a vote in my head....just instant CP !!

Opposite ends...

I’d buy that if I still lived in the States. Just what I want!

That woman in the photo seems to be barely containing herself from contempt for the orange turd...

I’m here on the ground, waiting, like probably a lot of people, for that stupid 25 year rule to expire for cars we care about. I too have 5 more years before I can bring my A2 to my home country. Twingos are cool, but I respectfully put it to you, that the little Audi is a more interesting car. Searching on mobile.de,…

Unfortunately, our species will never run out of assholes. Morons are still allowed to breed, ya know...
