You guys fricken rock.

Almost 2/3’s of the way there now. There’s some additional incentive to give for the next few days, the foundation has received an offer by a private donor to match up to $50k for all funds raised this week. So double your impact this week!

Still think about Matt from time to time as well, memory is such a fickle thing but some things just endure.

Brent, every donation is appreciated large or otherwise and really appreciate you digging deep given current circumstances. Thanks for the push over the half-way mark. I’m confident that we’ll make it to the goal line.

Crossed the 1/3 mark yesterday, thanks folks. Logged some solid training miles this morning before the rest of the family was awake.

The slate coasters are a lot of fun. Make them for your friends with their favorite sports ball team logo on them, they'll be impressed!

Thanks everyone, nearly a third of the way there!

Bumping this back to the front. The goal is $3k this year. Get me close and I'll cover the gap. If the total exceeds $3k and I'll donate a matching 10%. Make it hurt folks, I ain't skeerd.

Seconded.

Once again this year I'm prepping to ride a century in support of the Kelly Brush Foundation. Between Zwifting as required by the rainiest spring in history, the MTBs, and getting outside as much as possible this summer I'm piling on the miles in preparation this year and should in proper form before the event. Once again this year it'll be an in-person ride up in VT, with friends mostly coming from near-by so we should have a strong crew of 8 with some riding the 50 and most doing the full 100 miles. For me this is the 12th century that I've done in support of either Northeast Passage or Kelly Brush and I'm hoping the recent trend of good weather continues. So the mission remains the same, I'm trying to raise a bunch of money again this year with a goal of $3,000. As usual, all of the donations are tax deductible and maybe some legislation will get passed this year to make that more meaningful but really, I'm hoping the motivation isn't just to get a write off. So for those that are interested, here's the link to my personal fund raising page - Nate's Fundraising Page. Any donation large or small is very much appreciated. A bit about KBF - they are a non-profit organization dedicated to assisting individuals with spinal cord injuries in finding ways to get out and enjoy an active lifestyle. For me, this is a cause close to my heart. I love the outdoors and the freedom to explore it in a variety of ways and have worked with organizations like the KBF for the last twenty years to help others do the same. Last year's crew with Kelly at the starting line.

Land Rover 101 Forward Control - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_Rover_101_Forward_Control My first car was a '68 Series IIA, thanks for the pics Knucks. I still want for another Rover but cannot come through the mental math of how do accomplish that goal. Maybe in retirement.

Happy Birthday!

So much this. Sorry Jose, not sure how I missed this thread.

Happy Birthday!

^^^ Just came here to post the same, @Voltron. If/when further details emerge I would not be surprised if the situation only comes more sad. It was news to me that her son committed suicide last night. That’s an unimaginable level of grief to me.

Any interest in D7000 body for free with a vertical grip? I might have the stock kit lens for it still (unopened???) if I can find it in the storage room.

Knucks, if you don't end up with what you need I can probably help as well. I still have a silly collection of parts and could probably piece together an adapter.

As far as I understand it the cm is just centimeters vs. meters so you metric folks should be well equipped to move decimal places accordingly. There should be 100 Ncms per Nm.

Not exactly cooking but there was heating involved. Reese's puff marshmallow treats.

Happy Birthday!

More overly complicated potatoes.

Only answer - Fluff.
