It’s a dangerous job. The fumes are toxic and they are constantly exposed to them in high levels.

I carry a level up in gear as injuries while MT biking are usually more severe
Bleed stop packets Gauze pads Wrapping bandages Soap Hydrogen peroxide Rubber gloves Extra joint…
I’ve helped clean up and stabilize people plenty of times. It’s nice to be ready.

Bit different as I’m on a bike but…
I bring: Enough extra water for someone else. Extra medical supplies

To me yes.
I believe environment opens people up in a way not found commonly outside of the event.
It’s also a selection bias situation. Those that go are more inclined to bring open maybe.
I grew as a person, made friends, and shared feelings with strangers openly.
10/10 experience.

I agree with that.
I believe there are discounted tickets and even free tickets offered to minority artists as well as grants for art installations.

I guess what I’m saying is the largest qty of people going are of a middle/low income based on the average location called home.
The rich represent a fairly small portion. Some of the people in my camp are way above my income but their generosity was astounding. IMO BM brings out the exceptional qualities of people.
Don’t know the average but I think base price is about $600.
I heard that the main chunk of your tickets cost goes to renting out the desert and paying for the federal Ranger and local police support

Income is heavily affected by cost of living. We pay much higher rates for housing, fuel, and groceries than most of the country. Even in more of the rural areas incomes, generally SKU hire to make living somewhat affordable.

What a wonderful experience.
I loved every minute of the week.
So many genuinely kind and caring people.
The most staggering revelation I had was that many of my preconceived judgments based on stereotypes were way wrong. We camped with people that I would not normally connect with in the default. Some of these people I think have the potential to be strong, lifelong friends
There’s more in common Than there is a difference.
People go on and on about Tech, Bros and sparkle ponies, but scenarios like this, allow those of us, with the best intentions to shine. I hope this year’s Takeaway is more about the strength of unity than anything else

The census data does not support that claim
The majority the incomes are middle class (50,000 - 100,000) and as the majority of the participants are from California, that does not go very far.

I’ve only been in it a few times and only short term.
My work was in other industries
I think my point was that most people don’t understand tolerances and what a micron means.

Yes that is also true but in mfg people call out microns in a funny way.
Decimal places so less than .xx would be considered 10 micron as a tolerance

10 micron refers to the decimal places in machining.
Having a tolerance of .01 mm isn’t crazy on some parts.
Molds for injection molding for example

Sure but as throughput increases the amount of time it’s being used goes down. Or something

The back one is even worse. You have to pull up the cup holder mat and pry out a clip before you can pull a wire.

New episode of Freakonomics is great. Nothing but cold hard fuckcars facts. Give it a listen
Borrowed my brothers scooter. Had a blast around Sun River near Bend Or. perfectly sunny day for a 25 mile cruz. All paths and low traffic mid week. Climbed to the top of Lava Butte Lookout. So much to explore in this sport. Enjoy!
Just personally disgusting how toughness is now bought these days. I feel as though American masculinity is so consumer based now. The right hair cut, the right clothes, the right hobbies, the right truck, the right stupid accessories for that stupid truck For a lack of a better word my mind goes to the name “Weak” when I see these assholes. Weak and dependent on their big oil fetish. They buy their toughness and masculinity instead of earning it through challenge, personal growth, and respect. I’m sick of the urban assault vehicle crew. Often the normal thing men do where I live is buy a truck, buy some racks and accessories, but some stupid cooler and strut around like Rambo peacocks. It’s a terrible image to show kids. I hate it Rant over
So I realized I posted that other message a few times. I removed the old ones with out comments Lemmy wasn’t showing them so I kept trying and now I see there were a few of the same posts. Anyways, Problem: Speed wobble over 25mph and during specific road surface and load distribution scenarios. Attempts: Elastic cord tensioner scheme. 1. Used a old dropbar clamp to make a attachment point on the left side of fork to mirror steering linkage arm on right side. 2. Adjustable tension loop to frame. Max elongation set at furthest turning point. Created feedback spring effect that was fine but felt funny. Removed. 3. Adjustable tension loop from left bottom of frame to steering arm. Goal was to put tension on system to reduce harmonics. Still installed Solution: Replaced headset top half with [Cane Creek Viscoset ZS 44/28.6 ](https://www.jensonusa.com/Cane-Creek-Viscoset-Upper-Headset-Top-Assembly-ZS44286?loc=usa&gclid=Cj0KCQjwqNqkBhDlARIsAFaxvww1Pkcn8fIyrk3aqotyOnsBpJe7hCDXJDb3Td1mlzX_g1LzyR_HP4UaAlp0EALw_wcB) Big thanks to Kash at WarmPlanetBikes for the tip! New top speed is 43 mph downhill. *not with kids of course…
This took me a while and with the help of team mechanic we solved it. Thanks Ryan Problem: Set up of new Eagle 2 Transmission drive train. Poor shifting or derailleur binding on #2 cassette ring Steps: 1. Cursed at it on the first ride. No affect. 2. Tried micro adjust but not happy with locations of all indexed gears. No good solution for all gears. 3. Drank beer and complained until I found someone to listen to my little violin’s sad song Solution: Removed RideWrap frame protector from direct mount derailleur location. Outcome: Happy riding and less sad beers
Hoping to build up this community with lots of great content. Share your ride, ask some questions about upgrades, discuss car free lifestyles … whatever!
Hey everyone. Wanted to start a community where we can share the love of cargo biking. Please share tech questions, life style questions, anything really. Happy to discuss and help anyone through their conversion to a freeing themselves and their family from car independence!
It’s awesome to see these stations filled up around town and neighborhoods. Wishing this system and the communities who use them the best of luck! This one is out side of Humble Sea Brewing. Right next to the rail trail is a great way to encourage safer transportation. (crossposted on the other Bike Commuting instance - when do the merge?)

After the article recently about the Canadian police blaming cyclist for “dangerous behavior” I was reminded about this old chart I saw on Reddit. Ban cars from cities. Heal our communities
Full mid life crisis bike. Still got a lot of fine tuning and changes before I can call it “mine”. First ride went pretty well despite some mechanical issues Never a bad day to ride
The bike is a custom handmade steel frame from some old friends. 1/2 Columbus Zola, 1/2 Reynolds 853. The bag system was a diy system I wanted to try out. Rock steady but heavy. Hoping to see this community grow!
1000w LvH Bullitt. SRAM Code brakes and Cane Creek Visco headset upgrades. It’s so fun to ride with the kids to school and then on into the office. So lucky to still have this opportunity. Smiles per miles at maximum.
 Just getting the first laps in. Lots of fine tuning needed. Lots of potential! See you on the trails
