I watched the orignal V lizard people series over the weekend. Filmed in LA in 1982/83
I know the 60s was the heyday but it still just looked like that shitty fog

I remember seeing the photos.
That looks like a morning/evening vs. mid day variation most likely
For all the self congratulations this state likes to give itself that sky is still fucking disgusting down there.

Photos of clear-skied Los Angeles are mind-blowing: Is the air really cleaner?
Gorgeous photos of clean-air views across Los Angeles have been popping up all over...
I remember in the Navy you could spot San Diego from 200 miles out based on the color of the horizon. The first time I saw it, it was sobering.I remember seeing the photos.

Was probably the illegal mtb trails making dust.
Those things were horrible for the environment back then before rich people started buying them.
I remember hearing the old timers talking about how in los angles you had to clean your windshield every tank of gas from the smog.
on another note of bygone days. In the late 80’s and early 90’s in the wrecking yard you would see head marks in windshield’s all the time. Now you never see them. Really started seeing them way less in the late 90’s. The seatbelt law and people more people wearing them along with airbags. Always lots of hair hanging from the glass dome.

ok. But I’m going out of town next week. So the week after! Your back in sisters huh?
The Beta is definitely the front runner because it is at least labeled as a Beta (while likely just a rebranded SurRon). The specs work, still not totally sold on the stock wheels, but I want to ride it first.

I think the TT averages about 2-3 racer deaths per year.
Not just racers, but Marshalls and bystanders as well.

It's kind a funny to watch that whole world come down to 'catalog bikes' the way mtb is
Looks like the Beta is cheaper. I wouldn't expect a small company like Beta to R&D a ground up emoto, but hopefully they stand behind it. The Beta dealer here is pretty big. They also carry SurRon, so it might get interesting.somebody found the rebrand

It's one of the most incredible sporting events in the world, but I'm honestly not sure that I really support having it anymore. I get that the riders "know the risks" and can make their own decisions, but the rate of serious injuries and deaths just seems way out of line with anything that's acceptable in sports. Of course, plenty of people will argue that the danger is the point of the whole thing, it's just...I don't know, kind of grotesque.
what we need to do is get it to a billionaires only sport
Instead of building space dicks, branson, bezos, musk, koch etc all race motorcycles that kill them
win win!
god damn this stuff is delicious

I will say since I added the temp gauge radiator cap I've kept the bike a lot cooler. As long as you are moving it's fine
well it is pretty old. I can’t believe I’ve never seen or heard of the things. Made from the 70’s to 93 I think.wow
The last 800cc two stroke suzuki made for snowmobiles was 160hp
Fuck that. An old school stand up JetSki, though...

I posted that on the Bay Area Dual-Sport/Adventure Riders Facebook page for you. It is getting a lot of likes!
I didn't know you were an uphill enthusiast. Doesn't matter if they get there, just simulating the local economy with their visits.
I turn uphills into world cup dh tracks with a motor. That's kind of the point you know.
'simulating' indeed
And I look forward to them explaining this to me because they're the first person ever to genuinely believe this
Anyway, I'd love to get some bay area dorks with too much money and a sense of adventure killed in the woods. So again, thank you for that.
I used to leave 5ft holes next to jumps on mtb trails I built so there's no go around for hacks. I appreciate this evolution.
