So what's the post-M plan for your stable? Did you figure out if an extended warranty for the Infiniti was possible?
Mostly bitching. I'll be refilling our cash supplies because the deck gutted them. And i haven't had the time to deal with it; we'll likely get an off lease Ascent and call it a day for another decade or so. We've had our best luck with Subaru's across the board and Sarah really like the Ascent. Two years out from now they should be more readily available.

where the trails are
Fun ride last night. Pumped the rear tire on the bike up to about 30psi before starting, but I still burped it about 5 minutes in. A few more big burps mid ride left the tire pretty much flat. Just need moar pressure or ???
Running same rear on 28mm without burping at 24psi
Moar sealant?

I've been experimenting with lower pressures lately. I'm 200lbs riding weight, on weareone Agent rims, 2.5 exo DHF in front, 2.5 Aggressor DD rear.

22f/24r psi is teh $$$

Sounds like a sane plan. They all have EyeSight, right?

I’m down to 25 psi front and back. 2.5/2.4” WT front and back, Cushcore in back as well, 30 mm inner diameter rims. So far so good.

I usually forget to check pressure before rides. Sometimes I do feel rollover in the back without burps. Back home when I check I'm usually at 18psi... But I'm a hefty 170lbs suited up.

update on the black flies, looks like they are cluster flies?

I am able to catch them with the GF's mini vaccum, which that site would suggest makes them cluster flies? They are slower than what I would call a usual house fly, and do not make as much noise at blow flies do

Srsly - get rid of the dead hooker in the crawlspace. I'm tellin' ya - out west those things will mummify with very little maggot/fly activity. But you're in the SOUTH, man. The body has to go.

Least is yellowstone goes off...... Im not really even gonna feel it.....
We'll feel it, see it, and be just far enough away that we're looking at 3' of ash - immediately uninhabitable - but not blown up. And enough to make leaving impossible, because it's by foot and snowing glass.
