Ukraine is getting old weapons from an aging stockpile. Shooting the hurricane isn't going to stop the flooding.

We need to implement ranked choice voting and abolish the electoral college, or voting third party will remain as effective as screaming into the void.

Riding at top speed is dangerous because of the missing options to escape. I had a VStar 650, and it was nice, but too slow for anywhere with a limit over 45.

With high speed rail, your commute could be at the top speed of a sport bike, and without the slowdowns of traffic. The travel time would be more predictable, and you have your attention available for other things during the ride.

This would be effective. Altering the way we designed cities would allow new developments to abandon roads. Create walkable areas connected to an overarching network of high speed rail. As more sections go up, population will fill it, and priority can be given to residents that need to move to make way for the next redevelopment section.

Electric vehicles are here to save the auto industry. We need to replace personal automobiles with strong public transportation for the climate.

You must not be a rider. Extending the inside foot in a turn is very common.

Why do you say this photo is fake? My dad used to take me for rides just like this. One of his favorite stories to tell is about having to toss me off as it was going to fall over, and how I was having a blast, but my mother was not nearly so excited. I was around two at the time.

Yeah, it definitely isn't the least expensive option. Sticking to one or two series can help keep it down somewhat. I've still spent a lot more on hardware than software, with much yet to go as well.

I have a few others, but mostly just race in iRacing. Just started a few months ago, so still working on my kit.

 
 

New Nicron N72-UV and B70 next to my beat up Nitecore MT21C. I didn't notice the charge port on the b70, so am waiting on a standard N72 to arrive to take over for the MT21C. Don't want to see how it takes being dropped in oil with an exposed port like that on the B70.

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

This hole was left by a previous climber, but I slid into it on the way past.

 
 

We have to get two tablets, because there is not one large enough for his weight.
