I mostly dislike climbing. Other than it being a means to get to the top of a hill, I don't enjoy it at all. Maybe a really well thought out, long steady climb is OK. But otherwise nope, don't enjoy it. Love going downhill though. Got an eMTB. A big one. 180 front, 160 rear. I've done over...

That's how I describe all reality television. In fact, it's how I'd describe watching free-to-air live television in general, which contains ads for reality television shows.

I've watched it twice before cancelling my free 2 week Binge trial. You're right - immeasurably better. Surprisingly decent content for a 4hr movie. As in ... there's some stuff I'd cut if it were up to me, but not heaps. I'm no Snyder acolyte (of which there are plenty) - he really didn't hit...

Sreten, AKA M539 Restorations, is definitely not a tosser and can't imagine he ever was. Just a likable nerd who restores BMW's. But yeah ... a lot of the others are tossers.

I would rather his S85 V10 e46. While the Lambo looks incredible, I'm just not a fan of the brand. He's a bit of a tosser, Phil. But I do like watching his project cars get worked on. His neighbour Craig from DynoTorque is far more watchable/less annoying. Plus that supercharged LS Pajero he's...

Just curiously, do many folk self-shuttle to TBJ? Going up with a crew and we'll have two cars. I suggested we load the bikes and head up to TBJ (or further to Razorback Hut Campground), leave car there, ride the back half of the Epic and then take the other car up to collect the first car once...

Saw it last night. It was poorly marketed. They basically got the most exciting space scenes, some shoot-em-up moon rover scenes, and slammed it into a 30 second TV spot (which is what most people see). The trailer, while longer, still doesn't really give you the impression it's the movie it...

Speaking of Ring lap times, Google just decided I needed to know that the Tesla unofficially bested the Taycan's time by 20 secs. With traffic! I had a feeling they knew they could beat it. Will be interesting to see how the apparently 2 upcoming timed sessions go. Taycan still looks nicer.

I've seen several (or the same one several times) with freaking enormous biceps. I half expect to cross paths with it one day curling a fallen tree trunk.

My ISS Tracker app tells me when Iridium satellites will 'flare' based on my exact location (i.e. when one of the reflective antenna will be angled such that it reflects the sun directly to where I am). I'm guessing the answer to why they're called Iridium satellites will answer Zaf's question...

... wake up from the dream where I momentarily thought either realm existed.

When you consider the spill 3 days prior was 48 to Turnbull, then 14 or so ministers resigned, and he still ended up with 40 saying they didn't want another spill .... it's fair to say the whole thing was a complete clusterfuck.

I don't know a heap about the guy other than what I read/watch, and the words of a few folk who work in the capital and know some of his former & current staff. I get the impression his career is kind following the trajectory he envisaged and worked towards (or plotted) from a fair way back...

How long before Dutton tries again?

So I've been getting emails from DELWP about this for a few weeks. First a survey about the draft 10 yr management plan, more recently about community drop in sessions. I did the survey, noticing in the plan that mountain bikers are listed as a 'threat' in the Warramate Hills area of the...
