tybez Added a reply to do you workout?
1/29/2025 2:09pm I used to work out 3-4 times a week, but holiday breaks usually don't allow me to stay on track with my regime. I need to return to my workout routine. I've found a 30-day plan https://betterme.world/articles/30-day-calisthenics-workout-plan/ and it seems to be perfect for those who did a long break. Later, I'll add weightlifting.

tybez Added a reply to Ice Skating
1/22/2025 6:35pm I'm not good at ice skating, but it is really fun. I also like skiing! I've never tried snowboarding though. But we booked a trip to a ski resort via gate1travel, so I hope I'll have the possibility to try snowboarding. Some of my friends like it even more than skiing.

1/21/2025 6:43pm Bike Race Free and Mad Skills BMX 2 are my favorite. Both are really fun and challenging. I also enjoy Trials Frontier for more intense stunts. However, I couldn't find it at once and ended up calling the google play phone number. Yes, I really wanted to play it

12/18/2024 4:22am My 2004 xc70 had 455,000 km on it. I would have gotten another 100,000 if I didn’t get rear-ended and insurance wouldn’t cover the cost. I remember how I checked the Intoxalock reviews and decided to install their device, so it was also a car that made me a more responsible driver. I paid 2500 for it and put 2500...
tybez Added a reply to Buying an mtb frame in Germany
10/20/2024 10:41am What did you end up doing? I'm going to visit Germany soon. My friend suggested buying a bike there. Does anyone know a good shipping company that can send it to the USA?

10/16/2024 7:53am You make a great point about tolerances and the complexity behind mountain biking products! Similar to the reviews I've seen on PissedConsumer regarding consumer awareness of these engineering complexities, it's not always easy for the average user to understand the level of precision and specialized expertise required. Many consumers don’t realize how much precision affects costs. And it's true that...

I think one of the things that's most difficult for consumers, and even inside the bike industry pro-sumers to understand is how difficult and expensive the tolerances are for mountain biking products. This is likely the other big factor in the cost gap and perception gap between moto parts and full vehicle costs (other than the other large one that is economics of scale). Any time you are specifying a tolerances that is tighter then +/- 1mm, things start costing way more, and the amount of suppliers that are capable/willing of taking that on plummet. Beyond that, the amount of...

10/14/2024 7:25am Well, I still vape. But I won't return to cigarettes for sure, can't stand the smell. I took a cigarette about a month ago and it was terrible. I just felt sick. I guess I'll quit vaping when I'm ready. I looked through the PuffCo reviews and noticed many people succeeded in this. You know, it's all in our heads.

10/5/2024 7:08am I remember that game! The Atlanta Falcons who had never won an NFL championship dominated the Patriots, who were vying for their fifth title. Unexpected ending!

8/21/2024 5:16pm Any updates here? I usually wear the ordinary shorts I work out in. Do I really need special shorts for cycling? What brand can you recommend?

tybez Added a reply to New DH video Game - Downhill Pro Racer
6/18/2024 12:09pm I'm more into CS now (like the last several years LOL). I can attest to the intense pressure and adrenaline rush this game can bring. It always keeps me on the edge of my seat. I've been using my Steam ID here profilerr.net/services/steam-id/ to connect with fellow players and engage in thrilling matches. But I'm always open to trying other...

4/12/2024 2:44pm I switched from cigarettes to an electronic device. Now I can't stand even the smell of cigarettes. I guess this is the beginning of the process
