TROPHY CASE

A legend being born... by loki_racerin MTB

I'd guess it's because he was given the bike but not a helmet.

Dude. You do realize what country this legend lives in right? Helmets are most likely the least of his worries.

Haha. I don't drink so I don't know anything about beer. Everyone I paid off with American beer last weekend seemed to be appreciative. My son takes American food snacks to school (Italian school) and I'm fairly sure all the little girls are his best friend because of it.

Thanks for the info on the race, but I'm on the other side of the world.

I did purchase some lights. I only needed them for the second day when I woke up at 6am.

Thank you to all the people from my previous post that made recommendations. Obviously nothing can prepare you for a 24 hour race in 3 days, but knowing a little of what to expect was nice.

Agreed. It is a beautiful area of Italy.

I should add that I have GoPro Hero2 footage of said hand job.

Reputation.com doesn't know the difference between PCMag.com and PC World by loki_racerin SEO

[–]loki_racer[S] 0 points1 point ago

The quote on their site is completely fake and they link the PCMag.com logo to a PCWorld.com article. How is that me spinning anything?

I thought about screenshotting the chat session but didn't think it was worth it. The poor fellow on the other end is probably not even an employee, just a joker reading sales lines.

Just talked to the race guy. My registration is good as long as I can get my racing physical tomorrow.

I have an appointment to get the race physical at 9:30am. The race is 2.5 hours away and I have to be checked in by 1pm. It's gonna be tight.

I'm off to find a light solution and drop my bike at the shop to get a tune up.

I spent a couple hours last night watching videos of the previous races. The 12km of the course is the same as always, but they added 6km of new course. It loops through the pits twice per lap.

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I will post updates after the race.

I do have a second bike, but it's a heavy as hell 26". Plus two bikes won't fit inside my Mini Clubman.

Thanks so much for the feedback. This is exactly what I was looking for.

I need to wear a tutu? /s

My wife will be running support.

What one single food would you recommend bringing? I know nutrition is a science in and of itself, so what's the one "go to" food I shouldn't forget?

Thanks for the pointers. I've been in the saddle for 5+ hours at a time now. That's about the longest ride I've done, but have done it two days in a row now.

I have never run a marathon. I have exerted myself for hours and hours, even days and days. I can't go in to specifics, but leave it at I'm able to take a tad bit of abuse, both physically and mentally.

I've been training for a multi-day stage race.

I'm sure they are brutal, but can I set my own pace? I'm not out to win, I'm out to race in a race for free. Is it worth it to even start if I only make it 8 hours?

Care to elaborate? I'm in fairly good physical shape. I can quit at any time right?

dear, Blizzard- Thanks for taking a single player game and forcing it through your servers so I have to wait for your servers to respond to play by my self. by BlackLabel2021in gaming

[–]loki_racer 1 point2 points ago

Oh ya, on what server? Because Blizzard announced all servers in the US are down and will stay down for maintenance.

Starting at approximately 2:15 p.m. PDT, we will be bringing Diablo III servers in the Americas offline for urgent maintenance to address several issues that are impacting the game. We anticipate that maintenance will last for about an hour and that servers will be available at approximately 3:30 p.m. PDT. We will provide further updates as they are necessary. Thank you for your patience.

Fanboy much?

Man, that was close. I was panicking and trying to find my attorney's number to setup some type of defense for all the nonsense I've committed in casino hotel bathrooms. Thanks.
