How do you feel about the fact that South Korea is building 250km/h high speed rail to a mountain resort town because they promised it in their Winter Olympics dossier and can't back away even after actual cost estimate said the rail link would cost 4 times as much as originally thought?
The entire population along the 121 kilometer stretch of rail link is less than 350,000.

They'll do the obvious and build new towns and cities along the line, eventually transforming it into an important infrastructure project that allows to alleviate housing and population pressure in existing major metropolitan areas.
>>
its not a terrible idea, most major populations need to start growing outwards.
>>
>>1077991
The whole line is surrounded by mountains.
There is really no land to develop.
South Korea has one of the population density in the world. Any land near population centers that is remotely "developable" has already been turned into housing or retail/office space.
>>1077992
Another HSR that travels southward from Seoul but 100km west of existing HSR line, which would have actually relieved the traffic on main HSR line and spurred high density development along the line, has been delayed because S. Korea busted the railroad budget on this railway to nowhere.

What's the lightest bar tape?
Cloth or cork for lightness?
What do you think is more comfortable.

Because I'm pretentious I use Cinelli cork tape. I've had it on my bike for a little more than a year now and I really enjoy it.
It can be a pain in the ass when wet because of the unpleasant squishiness, but I've never had blisters or anything like that. I've never had cloth tape though.

>>1077955
>Cinelli
I mean how is that pretentious? Admittedly, the pros use like, 5-10 dollar cheap tape.
>>
>>1077954
Lightest bar tape is probably the Benotto Cello-wrap or whatever it's called.

I need help, /n/. My aunt's car got scratched on the underside, and everybody's pinning the blame on me.
>aunt bought a pickup to use as transport in the boonies (they have agricultural land there)
>works overseas so she left the care of the car to me
>told me to let anyone use the car when needed, as long as anyone has permission
>only ones that are able to drive it are my two uncles and me
>uncle #1 drives it most of the time, took it to someplace far once but w/ permission
>uncle #2 borrows it sometimes to ferry some things but w/ permission too
>i'm a relatively new driver, but only drove it once around the block to warm it up
>took care to drive on asphalt only and not run on anything more than a curb high
>two weeks later i drove it uncle #1 told me there's a scratch on the underside of the front bumper
>scratch looks like someone ran over a rock or branch then reversed
>a huge entry gash towards the plastic skid plate underneath, then some swirls that then go outwards to the point of entry
>everyone blames me for it
>i have evidence that i didn't do it
>backtrack three weeks ago
>took pictures of the truck to show aunt the vanity plate freshly installed
>present day
>looked at the pictures of the truck to see if something's amiss
>lo and behold
>said scratch visible on a front bumper picture
>never drove the thing before i took the picture
>only uncle #1 drove it before then, uncle #2 only drove it once
>i'm still being blamed
>it's still their word against mine
TL;DR: Aunt's brand-new truck got scratched. I got blamed. I have evidence I didn't do it, still got blamed.
What do I do? Am I fucked?

How do I stop wanting to drive cars? They're a waste of money considering I have a serviceable bicycle and my city is installing a light rail, but I still have the urge to drive fast, I keep lurking /o/, and I still dream about trading my perfectly good economy car for an MX5 and turboing it so I can drive really fast.
On top of that, hooning fills a void that I can't fill any other way. It gives me this euphoric power trip that I can't get from anything else and makes me giggle like a child at 180 Km/h.
How do I rid my brain of this cancer?

Did anyone else go to a fly-in event lately? We had a breakfast on Sunday morning. Great turnout, well over a hundred planes and a ton of people drove out as well.

Did it in France with my gf. Started in South Germany. First ride took us to Switzerland, next one into France and we spent two weeks there only with sleeping bags.
Met a bunch of nice people, got invited a few times to share meals (by poorfags and middle-class) and could use beds, saw lots of nice places and basically had a fantastic time.

What's the point though, you may as well try to pass as female and enter women's races. You'd probably not finish though.

What is the best method for bike to bike communication? Yelling to your bike partner is just not reliable, especially if you bike in a big city that is loud.
I was thinking of getting walkie talkies with earplugs, similar to what security guards use. My friend thought about maybe using a Bluetooth headset that we can connect to some app, if there is any. Do you use anything or have any ideas?

Integrate it into your helmet for cool.

Get a walkie-talkie app and use bluetooth hands-free. Can use bluetooth for the network.

Sup /n/, this is /g/. I want to get started with cruise boards 27" I think, what brand should I buy? I can't find any guides on reddit.
Is there still in 2017 a big difference between the cheap and expensive boards or can i simply order a 10€ board from ali?
