Would you rather prefer to bike with someone with comparable abilities or someone who can push you beyond?
In the past I would like to be pushed but not anymore, give me someone of comparable abilities that I can chat with while we bike. That's why I decline to bike with Jetlink...he is a monster when he is on his game.

Would you rather bike 25 miles on a hard-packed dirt four-wheel trail with moderate hills and turns or 50 miles on the side of the road with a large shoulder along a busy road?

I'd rather do the 25 miles but being that I've never gone 25 miles without a flat so I will opt for the road so I can limp home or get a ride.




Would you rather have the BEST custom made bike money can buy but be limited to riding only once a month or have a piece of junk (like me) and ride daily?

It's been moderately warming, and it seems to be just fine.

I use both intermittently. Google seems to have a more robust search engine but DuckDuckGo claims privacy although I am dubious.
DuckDuckGo uses Microsoft's BING search engine which I feel is inferior to Google although they ALL censor.
How is that for the answer you did want or need to hear?

Bloomfield Hills...it is more rural than I thought.

The first...she'll get used to it :) .

Would you rather be built like a body builder, but your wife thinks you look just "ok" or have an average looking body, but your wife likes your tummy?

Zoom meetings, so I can justify to my parents that buying a $1,600 gaming computer was legitimate :lol:




Would you rather meet me in person while railfanning, trying to get the best photo angles and video angles, OR meet AARR analyzing every car type, where they're going and what they're carrying (which is quite cool not going to lie :) )

Tough call. You and I have met and I do love photography but despite knowing AARR 12 years and talking a few times, we have never actually met due to the restraining order Don has placed on me. I say all 3 of us get together and do both.

The first

Would you rather remove my restraining order and railfan freight trains with AARR or have David, Michael and AARR meet in Troy and watch Amtrak?
