  1. Just terrible decal placement / lack of trimming
  2. Oh wow - I had no idea of this: Taunusstein is just outside of Weisbaden - think Kyle or Pflugerville. It has a main town, but also has like 10 smaller towns as part of it. I lived in Taunnustein-Wehen in 9th grade, and most of my friends lived in Taunnustein-Orlen. Could ride my bike over there, but it was sketchy - 6 miles of 2 lane road. The new arena is directly adjacent to the Hainerberg complex - one of the American military communities. You can see our commissary, high school, middle school, theater, and all those long red roofs are housing - stairwells, as we called them. Note all the state names for roads. Damn man, I've been down the wormhole looking at everything on maps. Lotta good memories in Wiesbaden. Got to 3rd base for the 1st time in that theater, and lost my virginity in Orlen (same chick).
  3. Saw a post on FB about Terry Black’s opening in SATX and the number of comments saying how they don’t need that overhyped BBQ because they have Bill Miller was scary.
  4. There are literally 4 spots there. Just because 5 small cars could park there doesn’t mean they have to.
  5. Dismiss Roman Anthony at your peril, sir.
  6. Not sure what the issue there would be to begin with. It's a space for 4 vehicles, and there are 4 vehicles in the space.
  7. Don't know if he's back, back, but he's been posting a ton of Austin pics the past couple of weeks.
  8. Fucking hell...
  9. Not hard at all for me. Dude is a premier league cocksucker, so watching him suffer on a boat with an inept captain and a shit crew scratches an itch for me. And how fucking terrible is that captain? Handles the situation in the wheelhouse terribly and then when he goes outside just says "I guess I'm supposed to cheer you up"....what the everloving fuck? I am definitely interested in seeing how it goes when they dock - if Harley is stuck on his own w/ no crew, that could be good tv. That has to be the best surprise character to pop up on this show in years. My head snapped around so fast when I heard that and it took me a second to adjust reality and put ol' Boudreaux in the Bering Sea.
  10. That's a REALLY salty lineup! Gonna have to break out my Cadillac Racing shirt from the bottom of the closet.
  11. Didn't get a chance to watch yesterday, so I'm about 75' into the Stuttgart-Union Berlin match. I don't know what we're missing, but I feel like it isn't all that much. Tons of possession, some fairly quality shots on cage (and some shit, from some of our better players), and nothing to show for it.....edit: beauty of a G from Tiago Tomas in his club debut at 86' - a heel kick half scorpion. FCU GK did make some high quality saves, tbf. Ton of yellows in this match. FCU has a new striker, Ilyas Ansah, a 6'4" Ghanaian/German who scored 2 absolutely class goals on debut. Multiple away kits this year and the black w/ gold look pretty fuckin slick.
  12. That was pretty much my thought - load up your camelback so you have hydration + weight in a device built to be comfortably carried.
  13. So, not at all old school BMX, but more like old man on a BMX-ish bike: Did 5 laps of the veloway this morning, in just under an hour. Avg speed was 16.3 mph In our social crew rides, we’re typically somewhere around 12mph and in our fast crew rides, we’re around 13.5mph. One of the guys suggested we see if we could break 15mph in a controlled-ish environment. Veloway is 3.1 miles, so our goal was to complete 5 laps in under an hour. I came in at 57min, and I think he was at 54, but he also waited on me the 1st 4 laps - I’d bet anything he could have finished 5 laps in under 45. Took a lot out of me - I’ve been WIPED all day since getting home. Pretty stoked to have pulled that off on a single speed 26” rig.
