Wcześniej trochę żałowałem, ale teraz cieszę się, że nie jeżdżę w tym roku Festive 500, bo dzisiaj jest dopiero drugi dzień przyzwoitej pogody, a od jutra ma znowu padać.
Szacunek wielki dla wszystkich szarpiących się z tym wiatrem, deszczem i zimnem!
@owly E, są tacy ludzie… Spoko. Mam kolegę, który przez czyjes manipulacje uploadami przegrał w firmie Kręć Kilometry. Rok później postanowił pójść w opcje nuklearną i żeby nie zostawić cienia wątpliwości kto wygrał, przez 3 miesiące dymal dzień w dzień 100km.🤡 @bobiko@LukaszHorodecki@rower
In all my years of #cycling, I've never found a great solution for cold weather. If I bundle up so I'm not chilled, then I soak everything with sweat in short order. If I wear less, then I freeze. I've tried Merino wool, synthetics (Gore, Event, etc.), and so on, but nothing works well enough for me.
Sadly, that means I don't do anything exciting on the #bicycle during the coldest part of the year. Just my daily local loop. :blobfoxsad:
@tk@biketooter@cycling@mastobikes I find I have a crazy steep temp gradient with almost any aerobic exercise and chronically overdress, so this makes sense to me
@tk@biketooter@cycling@mastobikes i warm the absolute hell out of my hands and feet before going out but for bicycling especially it’s been awhile. Want access to a mountain bike with nice wide tyres for actual snow.
Studio Ghibli's new movie, The Boy and the Heron, prominently places quite a few traditional Japanese knives, including kitchen knives, a sword, and the boy's pocket knife, a Higonokami. They're a carbon steel friction folder. I just thought it was a vibe seeing it in the movie.
If you want to buy one, fuck Amazon and Chinese copies, go directly to the source!
Edit: higonokami-knife.com may be less legit than others. See comment
I see you updated the post to say that site might not be quite legit. I got mine today and visibly, it’s as advertised, however I have no clue how to authenticate any other claims they’ve made, such as the source and exactly what it’s made out of. Any ideas what I could look at to verify?
Either way, I’m happy with what I got for the price even if the story is bullshit. I was able to use PayPal properly (no “gift to a friend” bs I’ve seen on other scammy sites). The price on the site is the price, no additional shipping cost (it did ship from Japan), no tax (that might be a bit sus). It got here in 2 weeks, and it’s as sharp as a thing can be as far as I’m concerned. My only complaint is it’s really stiff out of the box (I was afraid I was going to slip and cut myself trying to open it) but after watching a few videos talking about them, I think that might be by design as they seem to be applying about the same amount of force I am. Also, I’ve never had a knife that opens like this so it’s probably mostly just my fear of the unknown, and I’m already getting used to it.
