Don't even try to cook it at 6000 ft or above unless you have a pressure cooker.
Were the thread titles always all-caps?
WTF you talking about? I'm not seeing all caps.Quote:

Something that is different all of a sudden is, if you use the white screen, the stripe below the "Quick Reply" thing is now blue. I don't know what color it used to be but it wasn't blue. Maybe they updated the software? Nah that's crazy talk.
Maybe the chat is coming back right behind it?Quote:

Yep - white screen, some subtle and not so subtle changes - blue bar at bottom, there used to be some horizontal lines at the top that are gone, and thread titles in all caps.
if anyone has good screen shots of how it used to look, please share
Now, if you scroll up*, a drop-down menu appears at the top. Scroll down and it goes away. That's new.
*not on the forum front page, it's when you're in a thread
Weren't the thread topics, forum names and poster names in yellow before? Shouldn't matter, but the yellow did look better than white imo, and easier to read.
The bolding on the number of the page I'm on is barely detectable.
I wonder if Aaron Rodgers has any regrets.
I think you have to be self aware to have regretsQuote:

Not sure if this fits in Gear Talk or where. So just finished shopping for ski helmets. Had been wearing a Bolle for a number of years. Looked at Smith and Giro and one thing that I notice is unlike my Bolle they appear they do not include a draw string helmet storage bag to store them. Do many brands sell these separately now as an accessory (it appears Giro has bicycle helmet bag and Smith has an rather expensive $35 storage bag they sell separately)?
What do others do- carry it around without a bag? Repurpose another bag like a draw string cheap backpack? Get the sewing machine out and make your own after a trip to the fabric store? Have a locker and do not carry it much unless on a trip. Dirt bag it and just use the chin strap it to attach it on the outside of a gear bag or boot bag?

Even for now these sold separately are out of stock.
It’s been a few years, but my Smith Holt came with a drawstring bag.

I can’t imagine anyone using those drawstring bags for storage/carrying. Are they for scratch protection or something?
Helmet gets put in a gear bag with my other ski stuff
My current helmet came with a bag and I use it, but no helmet of mine before it came with a bag and my helmet went in my ski duffel with no storage bag.
DOT won’t plow our street because phone lines are still down & it crosses the street. They don’t want to foul their chains or equipment. The street is uphill both ways (seriously) so it’d be nice to not have it refreezing everyday.
The only lines remaining low are phone & fiber optic. Certain neighbors have said “just cut em & pull them off the road so they can plow; the phone/fiber company needs to repair all that anyway.”
Fiber is seemingly still working as one neighbor says they never lost service over the last week we’ve lost power. & “no one uses a land line anymore”
WWMD if they were sick of the refrozen hilly street?
Get a Flexible Flyer.
There is a chance that if the lines are down they are still live, so cutting them could lead to some real issues for people, and/other increase the time it takes to repair them. Is there any way to get them up off the street by like attaching them to a couple of tall poles?
I’d also want to be 120% sure they aren’t power lines
Most packs these day come with helmet carry. Hope you got a MIPS helmet. Really no reason not to.Quote:

The helmet does not fit very well in my Transport center area-- mostly due to the size of the zipper opening. My Bolle that I used to put in there barely fit. I ended up one of the times I did put it in there breaking the rear neck click-to-fit system or Boa system plastic strap that went to the shell. It slides in a bit better if I have to stuff it in there with a bag. I am hesitant to even try and put my new helmet in the Transport because the new helmet is MIPS and bigger shell.Quote:

Fiber should be easier to spot and yet even easier to break especially if it is cold out- even outdoor rated fiber needs to be handled by someone with some experience.Quote:

But if you do plow or get the road open and a truck or something comes along and snags any of the wire 13 feet fully across the road usually or more is standard clearance needed), you will then move up to the outage level, so decide it you want to just cut the wires and coil them up along the side of the road, or if you do not want outages and park away from the home and walk up and down the hill to the vehicles. Do any of the utilities have any way of reporting their response times to the issue (power companies usually always have a system both telephone and sometimes on their web site to report outages only and ETA or if crew is on site, etc.)
Even though I've worked on low voltage wiring- mostly all indoors but from time to time outdoor between buildings etc.) I would not want to be touching any wire that you can not clearly see the markings on for the wire type (or trace from the termination on the homes). If there is any chance of high voltage- of course never approach the energized wire...
I just got a new Giro this year, and it came with a bag. The 10 year old Giro it replaced also came with a bag.Quote:

1) Aaron Rogers reqrets that Cal was screwed in 2004--10-1, ranked number 4 but Texas was picked over them for the Rose Bowl.
2) Helmet bags are nice if you leave your goggles on your helmet when you put it in your gear bag
3) Our local cable/ phone companies leave lines lying on the ground for years, although not across the road, I'll grant you.

I guess 235/55 r19 is a weird size for studdeds?
There is no comparison to Hak10'sQuote:

A little less sidewall than the 55 you're looking for, but they will perform better in the dry.

They make the Hakka 10 SUV in that size. If getting a second set of wheels to mount them on, you could also downsize to 18” and get 235/60R18.Quote:
