Bicycled, instead of drove, to the local bicycle shop, to buy new tires and tubes for a couple of bikes with old, rotted tires... could not bear to have them not usable at all. #BikeTooter
@ai6yr Yeah just make sure inside rim is clean. Wrap the gorilla tape starting about 4” from the valve stem hole, going over it and around the rim ending about 4” past the stem hole. Then slice a little x in the tape where the stem goes and push the valve stem thru.
Probably helps with a tube as well, but this is how we run tubeless tires.
@ai6yr I did see this, but until now hadn’t seen it was JUST a resident.
What’s the MSM play here?
Trying to get people to stop chasing or they will die? Terrible news, rip.
Bicycled to the library
Bicycled to a garage sale
Bicycled to the store (solely to buy snacks for the pet rabbits 🤔)
Saw some fitness cyclers
A few kids on bikes
No adults doing any utilitarian cycling
Eight bazillion cars (Nobody walks/bikes in LA!)
Annoyed the clerks in a store asking them where the nearest bicycle rack was (answer: nowhere nearby)
@ai6yr I drove by those temporary bike lanes 2xs yesterday, looked like a construction zone despite the digital signs and small b/w arrow signs, had no idea otherwise
Thousand Oaks Transit: 🚲🚍Ventura County transit operators are celebrating Bike to Work Day by offering free rides to anyone boarding with a bike on May 17! Seamlessly connect your bike route by riding any bus within Ventura County for free. http://goventura.org/free
@ai6yr I’ve actually thought about it a few times. If my job is local I could drop off tools day one and last day and then ride my bike the in between days.
@ai6yr I’d love too! Although getting all my tools to the job would be difficult 😆.
OTOH, maybe I could use a new e mtb and use as a write off 🧐 anyone ever done that? #bike tooter
@ai6yr It’s nice this program exists however it would be even better if they included artificial turf removal as an incentive as well. That plastic lawn is nasty stuff!
Based on the amount of stuff on the curb today, it's apparently spring cleaning weather. Dressers, desks, shelves, coffee tables (many coffee tables), TVs... Typical of our middle class neighborhood. Although, better that it can be scavenged off the curb than directly into the trash!
@ai6yr I’ve got a working microwave that smells like a burnt cookie at my curb if you want it?😆 Daughter overcooked a muffin in the microwave and the whole garage filled with smoke and smelled for a week before I replaced it. 😳😂
Another Biweekly rocket launch in the hood. Quite different than most I’ve seen. Well into the launch and I noticed 2 lights fall in its wake and just float slowly down. Almost looked like 2 satellites that weren’t tied down🤷🏼♂️😆 #spacex #starlink #rocketlaunch
Location of the oil spill of Huntington Beach (using Sentinel-2 satellite) -- filtered to show the white spots on the left on the surface of the ocean. #oilspill#HuntingtonCeach
@ai6yr Kinda strange how it leaked a yr ago. Aging infrastructure in play. I was just in HB last weekend and took some pics. You can see how close to shore the spill is. Here’s the rigs you mention and to the left are a couple oil tankers moored. Spill is probably in that area based on your sat view. #HuntingtonBeach
Starlink launch from Vandenberg tonight moved to 9:57p (only mention the annoying billionaire's space company here because everyone will hear it...) #space#SantaBarbara#sonicboom#launch#vandenberg
@ai6yr my first thought would be who is writing this article? As LATines just did a large layoff, did AI write this? And also,
“1000 yr storms”!! Went from 100 yr to 1000 yr just like that???
