What's your other money pit?

[HereKittyKitty]

Isle of Man TT?

I follow it some. I have great respect for those riders. When I raced in CA I met a guy training to become a TT racer. I was surprised at how lengthy a process it is, they don't just let anyone out there.

I'm mostly a circuit racing enthusiast. I watch MotoAmerica, World Superbike and MotoGP. It's a part time job keeping up especially when all three land on the same weekend.

Who is your favorite TT rider?

It's crazy time racing, the IoM TT!!!!

I'm not exciting. Michael Dunlop. LOL

Do you have a favorite TT rider?

It's so strange to call 2 wheel pilots "riders". It is such a passive adjective. Pilots. Daredevils. Drivers. Colonels. Call them something that speaks to the work they are doing out there.

Circuit racing is my partner's preference too. I know he misses it.

 

[Troposphere]

You're kind. Thank you. It's embarrassing. I want to race with the other women in the SCCA chapter!

I am a track riding coach and I believe everyone who tries deserves respect. It is scary!

She sounds like fun to watch with!

She taught me how to watch football, so she has high sports IQ (really just smart all around).

I worked for Michelin when they were still the tire supplier.

My closest work friend was the Director of Motorsports.

Which series for tire supply and director?

We had a lot of fun on the road together. I tried to schedule my travel to align with his when I knew he'd be near the Bay Area. We had a lot of fun at Sears Point and in San Francisco. Probably our best trip. We went to Mitchell Brothers O'Farrell's. It was really fun. (No, my husband didn't care. It's skin and we all have it.)

When I was riding out west I never made it to any NorCal tracks, wish i would have. Only NV and SoCal.

Probably Connor Cummins, to come back from an incident like that and race again...what a bad mother fucker!

Oh, sorry. F1. Herb Johnson. Great human being.

I love she taught you football. My guy refuses to learn. He makes sports ball jokes and thinks he's funny. Hockey is out of the question for him.

Are any of them not bad a$$ mfers?????

But yeah...

100% I don’t regret selling it

Awesome! Please forgive me for

projecting your emotions on this vehicle… And congrats on the new life!

Do you any plans for another fun ride in the future?

 

[anhydrous]

Wild. I had no idea such a thing exists.

Thank you.

The term handloading typically hints at rolling your own for accuracy purposes. Guys will use the term reloading to hint at reusing the brass casing to save money. The endeavor bears a striking similarity to reconning your own peptides compared to buying name brand. You can save big money, tailor your own dosage, assemble rounds that aren't commercially available, and try out different brass choices, powder choices, bullet choices, and overall lengths in an effort to achieve results that would cost you huge money. Admittedly my F-Class gun is in a very niche and very awesome caliber but just the brass casings are $1.52 each brand new. No brick and mortar store keeps either the rifle or the ammo in stock but you can order it online for $3.33 per shot.

Thanks for that. I didn't even understand what handloading referred to or had any connection to. Fascinating details to consider. Nothing I know anything about, tbh.

No. I live near Seattle washingyon USA. Not even cold. Cutting firewood is good exercise, stacking wood is good exercise. I cut down a lot of trees, needed to do something with the wood. Exercise it is.

It's cold there! Go ahead and burn some wood this winter ; )

For me, it’s become card collecting. Mostly baseball/football (buying sealed boxes and ripping, followed by sorting, classifying, and selling duplicates). Some vintage Pokemon cards are about to sell… good stuff!

I think I ended up with 1400 Topps cards for baseball this year. 120 packs, roughly? I have the NFL Flagship Hobby Box and 2 mega boxes pre ordered, should be here in a week. And uh… mlb Chrome mega box a value box coming while I wait!

Just like peptides, all the accessories add up. Lightbox to take nice pictures for inventory/selling, penny sleeves, toploaders, cases, bulk storage boxes… I really have a hobby type, I suppose.

I've always been into single stack and production so 1911 and M&P9 Pro but I certainly recommend a 2011 if you're into it.

I have a nice little 9mm Shield.

I have a smaller RecTeq set-up.

Is that cheese you're smoking?

Yes I want another corvette in the future. But we are figuring out other things first we don’t plan on staying in Canada and would like to move somewhere warm so that is priority.

You guys are so fun. I have a business with two locations and 15 employees. When I'm not working, I'm working. I get time off in 24 hour increments, so that makes travel a bit difficult. I do occasionally go skeet and trap shooting but I buy my ammo pre-rolled. One day fishing trips are also sometimes on the table. I am learning the art of smoking meats and have three pinot noir vines and a beautiful dahlia garden. Reading is my favorite way to fill a few hours though.

And FWIW, I genuinely like working/the business of business. And I have big plans to be wealthy someday. Skinny and rich!

The business of running a business can be a lot of fun! It can also be terrifying. LOL

My five children and 75 chickens take most of my (husband's*) disposable income. Plus online shopping. I have fun hobbies but they are mostly all bought and paid for so aren't a reoccurring financial drain. I could spend stupid amounts of money on fabric for projects I'll never end up sewing because I'm too busy.

I desperately want to order a custom print on extra wide heavy weave cotton sateen for a home-sewn king duvet cover but it's 317$ just for the fabric....sigh. Looking forward to bow hunting this year as last year I had a broken arm. Need a new scope for my rifle but honestly my husband will get the new scope and I'll get his old one lol.

 

[BNLFL]

Cream cheese blocks, yes.

Thanks, ever do bricks of cheddar, Gouda or similar?

 

[HereKittyKitty]

And where is my head at.... I recently started collecting Hot Wheels and Matchbox. Yes, I'm akin to a tween.

 

[Skidude]

Cream cheese blocks, yes.

I have wanted to try this, is it cold smoked?

What temp and what wood?

He better have...

Bass Guitars and Gear.

Went to school for music, found myself driving Semi for a living (irony of life).

Recent purchase was the 4 string Fodera in the picture. It's been almost a year since I've played in a band and the "itch" to play is coming back so we'll see what happens.

Have a good day everyone!
