Yes, must be an absolute nightmare.
A friend of mine used to fill up 1L empty vodka bottles with water and give it to his 8 year old son to chug at burning man.
Funniest god damn thing I've ever seen watching panicked mom types run up to him and try and take it from him.
when i go downhilling i use just a 1 gal water jug from the grocer store, the kind that's like 99 cents. i leave it in the shade by the lift at the bottom of the mountain to grab a drink before getting on the lift. one time just for the lulz i took a sharpie and wrote "pee jug" on it
Not sure if I could resist the urge to pee on it if I saw it.
I used to use a 750ml bottle of Popov as my bike water bottle. Awesome reactions at the top of big climbs or at the dirt jumps!

Is that why my apples are always bruised?
Where do you buy your apples? The quality of the 22 crop was dismal.
Nice high pivot, no actual pivot hard tail:

Been ages since I've done one of these... Dan Alexander is back on live blog duty for the rest of the week, starting with Wednesday's (*checks it is definitely Wednesday this time)
Just out of curiosity... how do you know this?
All you need is a sharp machete to make some prints
........aaand thanks for that visual
I think I have whinged about this before, but hey, I'm old so I can repeat myself.
If you don't have the right size socket to undo a hub nut, work out if there is a damage free way to remove it before going for the chisel and hammer.
Two screws and nuts if you have threaded holes or two punches/screwdrivers if you have plain holes.
Also, don't do this when installing a seal, haha!

I have some smooth jaw channel locks. I’ve seen people make a tool out of some flat stock. But I kinda like your method more.
Not even your ex?

he RAYDAC (Raytheon Digital Automatic Computer)
Technician performing a memory integrity check during the construction phase of the 30-bit RAYDAC computer on August 2, 1952. Designed for use in Project Hurricane, this four address binary machine built by Raytheon was installed in July 1953 at the Naval Air Missile Test Center at Point Mugu, California. Cooled by liquid freon, the 5,200 vacuum tubes consumed 28 kW of power. It had 18,000 crystal diodes, 1,152 words of 36-bit 305 µs acoustic delay line memory, and 630 relays. With a 3.77 MHz clock and 54-bit instructions, addition took 38 µs, multiplication 240 µs, and division 375 µs, excluding the memory-access time, with 5-bit check numbers (Hamming type error detection) for self-checking arithmetic. The 18.6 m² computer required 4 operators, 14 maintenance, 25 mathematicians, 5 clerks, and had 4 coders in training. According to the specs, the purpose of the machine was data reduction and general large-scale computations.
