I've bicycled Denny. It's a great workout.

This plus the light rail build out has made living here without a car so much more pleasant. If only the rail went all the way up to Everett...

I'm gonna disagree with you about dropping the helmet at all. I also disagree about earplugs, wear them always even with a full-faced helmet if you're going more than 30mph/40kph.

I ride every day, and otherwise agree with what you've written.

Same, I made a 3d print of the little wheels that keep the floor nozzle slightly elevated, Dyson wanted $23/each and it needed 2!

They'll just keep turning the screws tighter if you let them.

Fantastic animation, sounds best with headphones (unless you've got a speaker system like that, you lucky bastard).

Anyone have input here?

I'm trying to decide which I like, yammie noob had a cool vid comparing the two with the xsr seemingly on top, but spec-wise, the z900 should be wild. I'm aware there are tune and exhaust kits to wake the undertuned z900 up.

I like spirited riding, but mostly on straights as I roar off to a campsite in the mountains. What do you folks think?

Google Pay alternative?

Hey there, I'm looking for an alternative to Google pay that'll allow me to use NFC payments etc. Thoughts?

I don't have a Google account, nor am I interested in opening one.

E: Just to clarify, the payment part would be convenient, more annoying is how I don't get to use a single place for my subway/gym/ticketmaster passes.
