Step 1: find a job in the middle of nowhere.

Step 2: move there.

Sounds easy, no? To achieve it I moved to another country, learned a new language, took a 50% pay cut, and living here requires a lot more work just to be comfortable ... but I live halfway up a mountain in the middle of a nature reserve, it was worth it for me.

Under Decks, like Lower Decks but lower, lower, lower, TOO LOW, lower.

Doing plugs is super easy, but not a permanent fix ... for me they've only ever lasted about 1000km (but then a permanent plug put in by a tire shop can be found).

Changing tubes is a PITA, it requires practice and the right tools. I made my own trail stand and combination tire lever / wrench set because the off-the-shelf parts are expensive. So far I've only used it at home, but it only has to be needed once in the middle of nowhere to be worth it!

It really does do that, though then having to go to work instead of keep riding brings me down to earth with a bump, lol

The more I think about it, yes it would be a lot of fun!

That's fantastic, I would love to see a Trek / Pigs In Space crossover

Why? If anything the risk goes up.

Lucky escape with that nail! Does your extensive tool kit include a set of puncture worm thingies?

Sounds like a good go at adventure, though if you have a KLR there's no excuse for having someone else carry all the stuff, those things are pack mules!

"Do you want to go camping?"

Yes, any time it's pleasantly warm and I can disappear into the mountains or desert for a few days, away from signs of civilization.

This was in september: https://i.imgur.com/d8GR02U.jpeg

Anywho, well done on doing your first trip! How did the others you brought along find it?

Or the duplicate crew and ship made it back and he was the only original member of the crew

An inline 4 with 2 exhaust pipes ...? That would make it pretty unique.

The engine is definitely a Royal Enfield 650 with some extra stuff stuck to it.

So that's what it stands for, Love Gay Bacon, Thanks!

They were both in their respective shows so that people could laugh at them, not with them.

That's the motivations of the character, he was in a dress in a comedy so that people could laugh at him.

Fair enough, if you can get this one for near-free then it can fit the bill if you're determined and have the skills.

My baby is a 1980 Yamaha TY175 that was pulled from a shed and I custom built it into a full competition machine so I don't think I can criticise. It cost me about 5000€ in total, and still needs a couple of things, lol

It's a Rieju Tango, 10hp of mountain goat farm bike!

I've had lots of expensive, fast, or fancy bikes in the past, this one is the most fun

I have to admit that the best commute I ever had took 20 minutes by bicycle, mostly off road. Every morning I'd get to see wildlife, beautiful sunrises, fresh air, and all while I was getting fit. Wish I still had that :-/

Klinger wants to get classified as crazy by wearing dresses, which implies that wearing different clothes is a sign of mental illness. Herr Flick gets sexual gratification from wearing women's clothes, thus implying that wearing different clothes is something only a sexual deviant would do. Both of these stereotypes continue to be used to harm Trans women.

Mash and Allo Allo both have no shortage of jokes about cross-dressing and plenty of casual sexism. Fawlty Towers ... is also a product of it's time, any good parts get outweighed by the bad parts.

There's also an episode where Quark undergoes gender reassignment in order to close a deal, which is played for laughs and includes lines about women being sensitive because of their hormones. It sticks out because it's just horrible, while she show is generally good.
