Oh, we get mendacious leaders who seem to fall arse-backwards into high office too. The wildlife don’t seem to take them all out.

Oh, no doubt. They’re certainly not perfect - they just tend to be (malfunctions notwithstanding) easier to get out of than toe cages - the twisting motion (as required for the SPD pedals I’ve got - I’ve never tried any others) is much easier to escape when you’re unbalanced than the backwards slide required for cages.

Like Thomas Midgley!

Never mind that throwing your left leg over the bike while your right foot is clipped in would be a great way to dislocate one or both of your right ankle and knee.

Yep - having age limits on the Supreme Court (or the High Court, as it is here in Australia), works perfectly well.

You can see the clip on the left side, and he’s pretty clearly trying to disentangle his right foot from the clip when he falls.

These ones? They’re the stock facelift lights (and quite similar, you’re right).

Or the snakes, or the crocs, or the oppressive heat...

Blockheads didn’t blame Bowyer. They just noted the baseless assumptions in your original post.

The rule here in Australia is "stay with the car". Most of the people who die here in the outback after their cars break down so do when they leave the vehicle to go and get help. Such a pointless, needless thing to happen.

They’re not cheap, but euroschirm makes a good umbrella for this purpose:

It’s pretty cool, yeah.

True. It certainly works well for visors as well.

It’s the upcoming Alpine R5. A hot-hatch version of the new Renault R5 EV, using the traditional Renault Sport philosophy of putting a big motor in a little car (the standard one will come with a 134 bhp motor, while this one will have a 215 hp motor from the Megane EV, and wider track to fit it). It’s also going to…

Dammit is right. I see a few of them driving around here in Australia, and they look damn good - who doesn’t want a WRX wagon, right? But no manual. It's almost worse than not getting them here at all - they're so close to being awesome, except for that metaphorical and literal weak link.

Want to own and actually have some chance of owning? This little beast:

The concealment panel can be made of much thicker material - it doubles as a tiny barricade in "Mobile Fortress Mode" or some such other silly name.

About ten years ago, McLaren were talking up the possibility of ultrasonic transducers in the windscreen which eliminated the need for a squeegee wiper, but it evidently never went anywhere:

The Levorg doesn’t come with a manual transmission either. Even worse, it’s a CVT *spits*.

Move really fast and break everything?
