Oh haha I didn’t even get that until you responded. 

You may know this, but if not try to get in the habit of looking through turns. Like turn your head towards where you’re turning to and follow the curvature of the road where you’ll be in 100 yards. You’ll heel the bike over and commit to the turn better.

Nice bike. I’ve ridden this exact model Guzzi, and it’s a great machine.

I was raised in Europe and many of my peers, both male and female, started having sexual encounters of one kind or another at around 14-15. The age of consent was 16, but as city kids we got started early. We had good sex education and it wasn’t weird or unnatural, for the most part (I say that because everything is…

The rear end locks up when power is applied.

lol not in a million years. Nor a thief of POS 2007 Toyotas like the other asshole suggested.

• Vic had temporary job at very easy car theft location.
  

Double-dipping. Greedy. And stupid.

Insurance scam. She’s involved. Crew got greedy.

Yup that $27K Celica resto article was on point. This is where the real money and time is going to be spent post air-cooled 911s, Hakosukas, Kenmeris, E30s, Supras, Zs etc.. These are the new iconic vehicles for the generation that’s coming into play money who grew up with Initial D, drift culture and so on.

Actually I was think what could be a D-name they could stick with and now that you mention power forwards maybe this could be the Land Rover Duncan.

I’ve never seen an oven-based recipe that accounted for the time it takes to heat to 425°. I get that you preheat an oven while prepping so it doesn’t impact the actual cooking time in the same way, but you can for sure be doing stuff like laying the table etc while it’s coming up to pressure.

With you. I loathe this president with the fire of a thousand suns, but as I pointed out in a previous thread you can’t castigate the man for not going to visit the troops then call it a “political stunt” when he does. That’s the trite game the other side plays, and trivial Hatch act shit is the least of our worries. S…

Loopty loop has rails both above and below the wheels, so the train can pass through slowly enough that coal dumps naturally without relying on centrifugal force to keep the train on the track while inverted.

Yep, confirmed in my view: this should not be called Defender. It’s a decent looking vehicle, but shares more design DNA with the Range Rover and Discovery.

“Quarter of” sounds strange to my ears. “It’s a quarter [of an hour] to” makes logical sense, but I can’t do the same for “quarter of.” I mean I’m totally familiar with it so if someone uses that construction I know what they mean, but it still sounds odd.

What the heck is the difference? It doesn’t have a separate trunk hinged below the rear window, allowing for greater access to the trunk. Hatchback and liftback are interchangeable terms imo.

Seeing as how sidewall goes down as wheel diameter goes up, this analogy doesn’t work. The car doesn’t get taller with 23s. If anything it’s more like a taller person wearing flats to be the same height as their smaller friend wearing heels.

Yup, that was me that made that comment, and I was about to make it again (thank you for stepping in). If you’re the type of person that buys a Cullinan or Urus then schlepping stuff is not on your 99 problems list.

High heels are not the origin of the term “well-heeled.” Well-heeled is the opposite of down-at-heel, and implies that because your shoes have their heels intact you can afford to maintain them, whereas down-at-heel refers to worn down heels, suggesting that the owner cannot afford to take them to the cobbler (and has…
