Was at the Amour and Artillery Museum on the weekend because shit that blows other shit up is really cool if you're still mentally 12 (me). Awesome place with a really varied collection. Some random highlights: Australian delivered Leopard (on loan from Puckapunyal) German monsters circa...

Went for a Google to see if any looked good and the single cab workhorse ones don't look as bad. They really did go for a.... distinctive design though.

Christ I f***ing hate Harleys. I'm all for a bit of internal combustion noise but Harleys are apparently designed to sound as obnoxious and shit as possible. Air-cooled engines sound good in Porsches, they do not sound good in crude pieces of badly built shit that are lusted after by fat stupid...

They're a really fun bike. I never had a 150mm fork on mine but they work just fine with a 160mm. Despite their low weight and on paper specs they definitely feel more like a race bike, just want to be pinned everywhere rather than being super poppy. Pretty versatile too, can be built to be a...

Still looks like a Delta Integrale so you're gtg :D

They're a bit of a weird one. I demoed an LT for a weekend alongside a V4 Nomad a few years ago and found the bigger, heavier Nomad a better climber and more spritely on the pedals too. Just didn't do anything better than my considerably older 29er Remedy at the time and got smoked by the...

@ozzybmx bike shop slapped this one together last week, bit of #inspo for you 😀

Christ, I'd completely forgotten about that Picasso of a bicycle. Apparently they rode quite well, plus would also have the bonus of not being able to see it while riding it. That yoke might present some interesting lateral loads on that shock as well.

They're a discontinued series of tyres so if you think flipping them may work out I have copies of yesterday's newspaper and some expired milk for sale. Very competitive prices.... As far as how they are I've been mucking around with a set of 2.6s in Grid Trail Butcher, Grid Gravity Eliminator...

While I don't believe the slow pitstops are deliberate (plus they managed to handicap Norris with one at the last race as well) I think it would be a slight embarrassment to the team if their near inevitable WDC this year is lifted by their understudy (and semi-rookie) Piastri rather than...

Yes, would make for an unpopular podium if he beats Norris to the top step. Whatever though, he clearly has a better handle on this year's car (or is just a better driver...)

I'd hold out for the Unno as well. Kerb weight of less than 21kg with standard components is pretty solid. Plus they look awesome.

You know what else would help recess the amount of debt they have? Not trying to pass that shitty budget bill currently that will add several trillion more to it. Trump threatening Xi is like watching a toddler threaten a J-20.

Omg omg omg Sybreed might be back together, which sounds like a great reason to dust off the back catalogue. If you're into Fear Factory or Mesuggah give them a listen.

Takuma Sato was alright, remember him pulling off some pretty batshit overtaking moves in one of the years BAR was competitive (2004 maybe?) Won the Indy 500 twice too, so not exactly shit. In slightly hazier memory Ukyo Katayama was pretty good as well when his car didn't blow up, but got...
