Capricorn

y'all buying what Boeing CEO selling here? I think it's a croc of utter shaite, a logical-sounding argument to wash their hands of responsibility.

But they are very careful to not bash any particular party. The show does well enough to roll in many topical issues in each episode.

wrt the Michelin's porous sidewalls: it doesn't bleed sealant, just air. So no whiteheads anywhere like one normally sees with very porous sidewalls on TRL tyres. I've mentioned this before, but worth repeating: I've been so spoilt with SG carcasses because even though they are TLR, the double layer sidwall effectively makes them non-porous. But i was spoilt to the extent that i've forgotten how to deal with porous sidewalls and it's so simple. Mount tyre, inject sealant, inflate to a nice high pressure,hold wheel horizontal so you can swirl the sealant around the sidewalls under pressure. Flip over to ensure you get both sidewalls lathered in sealant. Mount tyre to bike et voila, porosity resolved.

ze germanz (bike-components). so mounted the michelin wild enduro front. Same story with porous sidewalls which is of course a non-issue. First ride was short, but i think it was enough time to feel if there's any major difference between that and the magic mary. A couple of things I have to note: the magic mary is on a Mavic Deemax XL rim with a 27mm inner width, and the michelin on an e-thirteen rim with 30mm inside width. The ONLY notable difference in riding characteristic between the two sets of wheel+tire combos, was in sidewall squish. That michelin sidewall roll was very noticable. I haven't felt it on the rear, but that's because the pressure is abit higher. In checking the front pressure after the ride, it was a bit lower than I would normally ride with the magic mary, so not a good basis for comparison. I did however expect some sidewall slop from the Michelin under hard cornering because of the single ply sidewalls. Frankly, the SG carcass in that regard is the benchmark, but logical given it's double thickness sidewalls. Despite the sidewall slop, so far, the grip and rolling resistance is comparable to that of the Hans Dampf and Magic Mary combo i've been riding for months now. That's high praise in my view. I think i'm going to like Michelins. A lot.

Line of Duty is very enjoyable. The Bay is rocking along nicely too. Brit shows are killing it atm.

Swapped out the HD on the rear for the Michelin. No discernible difference in rolling resistance, sidewall support, braking and grip when leaning it over. Still need to change over the MM upfront to Michelin as well. Will be more interesting then.

oh it was the skollie! Totally i mis-remembered who been rocking the wild enduros. The michelin thing is not an issue that warrants throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Definitely not going maxxis

Eddy Gordo and other Michelin Wild enduro rear GumX 3d users: how much sealant and time was needed before the sidewalls stopped being porous? Rhetorical question really, as just more sealant and time will resolve the issue. Might be useful info to recall for those who will purchase the tyre, and then wonder why it's automagically deflating without an obvious cause. Been a very long time ago now that i had to deal with porous sidewalls. Can't see any sealeant bleeding out the pores, but some soapy water revealed the culprit causing my tyre to deflate within 48 hrs. And it's on a very specific section of the sidewall, the portion textured with lines highlighted below. These tyres are Tubeless Ready, so by definition, one can expect the sidewalls to be porous, as TLR refers only to the bead,not the rest of the carcass. Schwalbe has been spoiling me all these years, as their TLR SuperGravity tyres typically have zero sidewall bleeding.

"...very trained, and very professional..." my palms actually started sweating a bit watching this one. Great stuff. Made me lus to get stupid ok ok ok.. stupider...

is it so boutique visiting this online establishment is by invite and appointment only?

ironically, it looks like a typical presentation of flow around a foil (specifically a turbine blade) in stall or with severe flow separation.

Star Trek Discovery Season 2 was fuggin amazeballs! Absolutely loving the show. It's not perfect by any means, but it has great elements that bodes well for the series to continue. Star trek is telling a good story again.

one of the reasons I like brit shows. They seem to end appropriately as opposed to getting chopped. that said, still have a few seasons of Arrow, Flash to get through *sigh* 1st world problems.

Incorporated: took me almost two years to start watching it, but happy and disappointed i did: it's a great show that got canned, but it set a benchmark I believe that i hope other shows explore. Quite surprising it's not based on a book because the world building was exceptional. definitely a must-watch for all sci-fi fans.

and it's finally revealed at Sea Otter. Great observation there Capricorn! Fox Racing website No MIPS = lower price? Some reviewer is going to call this good value for money, but since it's a lid with no contemporary measure to mitigate risk of concussion, is cheaper really better? the argument for something is better than nothing is not really a good one anymore, because you don't need to be at risk of cracking your egg to suffer major brain trauma.

nevermind, we still on a path to some global war: the wreckage was found, pilot still missing.

stealth jet goes missing? defection?

anyone remember the drive-in? parked on the woops section, single speaker thingy hanging off an open window, which was a pita if the night was cold. My dad used to us to the near year's show at Skyview, Tokai or at Goodwood. Think ET was one movie I remember watching. tjanked like a baby when ET did a mary poppins.

stock price disagrees with you. As most investor notes have stated: the downside of this whole disaster is already built into the stock price. There's only up from here.

as much as it burns, I appreciate the reminder that MTB trail network spans continents. Fort William is still on my bucket list. And after following the last EWS, that trail in Tasmania looks crazy good. but if you said morzine is closer and cheaper, you would probably be right

same way you know someone's going to morzine?

and not one squat, good morning or deadlift. of all the things NOT to do. wtf duane

another article that summarises salient points in an attempt to bring the bigger picture back into focus: was the regulatory clearing process flawed and what else is lurking underneath that could cause another plane crash? In the current political climate, I expect the senate sub-committee hearing to be the shiny gloss lipstick on the pig. That said, there's a republican heading up the sub-committee into an issue that cropped up during the democrat regime. This is political cannonfodder.

Hanna... erm ya hey. i had such high hopes for it after watching E01. It wasn't bad, but it could have been so much better, IMO that is.
