My dad used to run patrols in Namibia when he was in the SADF in the 80's. They used an armoured car that was fitted with rail wheels. Pic related.

>>1062064
How many blacks did he kill?

>>1062064
>>1062069

not him, but my dad was also in the SADF in the 80's and he and his platoon fired at a bunch of blacks with blanks on their way to an exercise for lols. however he never shot any floppies in anger (he was a signaller)

that guy's dad was also probably on glorified guard duty on or near the border.

inb4 gun for shooting black people

How else do you transport metric-fucc-ton of cargo across the world?

Would you prefer 26oz of salf to cost $1 or $25?

Budapest-Vizafogó.
This station was used mostly for freight operation, until the 70s/80s when they started to store disused steam locomotives before scrapping. After that, the station closed and almost completely vanished, and new commieblock units were built in this place.

Now only the station building remained.

>>1064158
When was it originally opened?

384,400km

>>1063847
No one has ever done a ride that long.

question is in how many hours

for instance if you do that 100km ride in 10 hours you only averaged around 10 km/h so you probably didn't even break a sweat overall

bad logic, but good girl
ill allow it

>People will often put up photos on social media of obliterated helmets and say, “Holy crap, look at my helmet! It saved my life!” But helmets are not supposed to shatter. When a helmet protects your head from a serious injury, the styrofoam inside will be compressed and stay that way. Most of the pictures I’ve seen are of helmets that have broken apart. It’s likely that the helmet did not protect someone from a severe injury.
While she is correct that helmets are designed to compress, she is the biggest fucking moron on the planet, without the slightest understanding of physics, if she legitimately believes that a shattered helmet didn't do its job. Helmets compress in mild to moderate impacts, they shatter in severe impacts. In both cases, they absorb a fuck of a lot of force. Of course you niggers already know that, but apparently this dumbass woman doesn't.
Oh well, someday she'll learn the hard way.

Did you even read the article?

Aside from her error about helmets shattering, that's my stance too - I wear a helmet if I'm mountain biking or riding a road bike in a group (both activities where the risk of crashing goes way up), but not for general riding about.

The humanizing effect is real:

Don't be a fucking faggot and pay your fine. Carpool lanes aren't for greedy fucks such as you, they are for efficient travel.

Yes, if you don't pay your fine, how will your state pay for all of the illegal alien invaders?

We've had threads on this in the past... according to everything I've read, riding a freight train still has a certain romantic appeal, but the lengths, car design, and speed of modern freight trains make it increasingly likely that you'll be maimed or killed if you try it.

I heard bad things about vintage lugged garbon, and looks expensive. For that price you could get modern carbon with modern specs with warranty.

>>1062680
That's the best part. For less than that price you can get a modern bike with electronic shifting and nice aero wheels.

Modifications to the southern end of the route, as the current route will be largely redundant once BART's SJ extension is complete. Als: if the ban on bay fill development is ever lifted, the Coast alternative would essentially be the spine of a completely new urban corridor.

Take it to a professional repair business, that looks like a fairly straightforward fix.

>>1060822
If that crack goes all the way through, you're fucked and will need a new frame, not repairable.

>i fucked my shit up because of some crapy homemade stuff

You're obviously bad at homemading stuff so maybe you should bring it to a pro if you don't want to die...

But since you're concidering fixing it yourself or even not fixing it i suppose you're kind of suicidal ?
