Even my boss can't pay me to ride in the rain. I drive the van those days. Not because of brakes. Because I don't like being cold and wet.

I was joking, the only time I ride in the rain is if a weather event came out of the blue.
Literally, the best time to ride. No hikers that moved into are from LA and Bay Area messing everything up or crazy Horse Women. All alone no noise, no shadows.......I went out to a sandy spot like 7-8 years ago and it was a downpour. Probably had 40 mph winds going. Cold as hell, hard to see but nobody on the trail.
Yes and yes.
But why?
Here you will get immobilized by clay soil, hit by a lightning bolt, and then eaten by a Grizzly or a pack of Wolves.
Absolutely sick work from the boys.
Analog repeaters and all on one battery pack, mind numbing

Pretty cool perspective. What’s immediately noticeable are changes in speed and elevation. Seems like a lot of work to put this together, and then for the pilot to perform.
The reception is whats mind numbing. The video feed for FPV quads runs off 5.8 Ghz due to low latency but inherently has very poor range and can be blocked very easily so you essentially have to have line of sight for a decent transmission, you lose your video feed, its a crash. The fact they used a mavic as a roaming repeater and several daisy chained signal boosters along the route and still had crappy video and were able to fly with all that interference is insane.
Och aye!
Ah. I see you ironically publish your own dictionaries now too.
The full phrase before the American bastardisation to make no sense should actually be "mind numbingly boring"...
You're pretty good at fucking this sort of thing up though.
For the first time ever, I'm with Gary on this one. "Mind numbing" to me means mind numbingly boring. "Mind blowing" is the phrase I'd use for your example. It clashes with the rest of my personality, but I'm a grammar and language Nazi.

Never understood why people have issues with Porsche or Peugeot. Phonetically it has no sounds that don't exist in English. It's just everyone in America has some weird bad habits about those. Adidas is super simple too. It's not like trying to spell Fjallraven or Xiaomi (though this one is fairly easy too once you get that Xi= Shi)

Now that Sik Mik is riding for Yeti, I'm hope he comes down to show the kids how it's done!
How is your English after many years abroad?
My 3 main languages are French, Swedish and English. I use them daily and even dream in either of them. Now after 20 years abroad even French feels like a foreign language: I have to search for some words and my vocabulary is limited to what I needed until my years at university.
That sounds incredibly similar to me, haha. My English is not what it used to be.
Seriously, we need a throw up reaction emoji @binary visions
Just got my "Changing Robe". Apparently it's been a thing for surfers for a while. Wish I would've known that before a park ranger threatened me with jail time if I ever change into my chamois in the parking lot ever again....
A little overkill for me, but you can't be too warm and dry, right?!

Holy crap perfect....
Some spots I ride after work are right next to a city path and rows of houses, the amount of times I've had to say screw it and just ride in my boxers* rather than mooning the neighborhood...and you know how it goes trying to change quickly, foot get stuck in the grippy shit in the chamois every time, thus extending the freak show.
*yeah yeah i have a delicate taint.
I once went for an afterwork ride and was the only car in the parking lot. So I proceeded to drop trou to change thinking I was alone only to hear the University of Virginia women's cross country team to go running by.
Did you cause any to trip and fall?
That's kind of like walking off into the bush to take a leak, thinking you're hidden, only to realize nope, you're right next to another trail...as passing riders wave at you.

No. It was cold out, I swear!
I once had my dog runoff with my pack tied to his leash as I took a shit in the woods. I chased after him with my pants around my ankles towards the trail where of course a group of people just showed up. I presume they thought I was some madman coming after them as they literally ran away.
Have you guys seriously never just used a towel for changing? I've had a change towel in my gear bag for easily 15 years
