  1. The drive really isnt bad. Most gringos take the shuttle which has a nice stop at the souvenir and food place. That chicken plate slams. Car rental also pretty easy a tiny bit of spanish would help. Other than closures its 15x easier than a drive on 10 or 35 etc
  2. I'm always relaxed in CR. There a tons of small boutique properties all over MA. Something like this might be up your alley https://www.espadilla.com/site/
  3. Anyone having dejavu. Jose. Conte? Strong start. Terrible lackluster slow regression?
  4. We are not good on defense
  5. Welp. Finally secured tickets for Burnley. Which was not easy. Sitting in the south stand this time. I logged in within 20 mins of the One Hotspur+ ticket window. All gone. Finally on Sunday/Monday the ticket exchange opened and finally found two together in the south stand. But you can only buy one per member during the exchnage window. Since its a sellout the window does not open to the public. So my buddy and to buy a Spurs membership and I was able to buy a second. Should be a great time at WHL 2.0
  6. I'm sure this has been covered and maybe Im just slow to the game but if you stay at a Hilton and qualify for the daily hotel credit. Always book it for two people even if you are solo. You will get a double credit
  7. Well damn. At least they didn't give up
  8. Hmm. There is a datapoint right outside my hood but nno apts within two blocks. You must be near the one on medical. Lock your vehicle. Just saying
  9. I can see how the off road would help your on road. Just learning to deal with the unexpected. We are definitely going to do the next MSF courses. Appreciate all the input. My son got his bike yesterday. 2018 KTM RC 390. Needs a bit of work. The fan is crapping out and its overheating. We had to replace the battery yesterday. Pretty happy with my gear choices so far but this stuff is addicting NBT Riding pants Shoei RF Helmet Scorpion EXO Jacket and a Skilz riding shirt (both are highly armored) Alpinestars riding sneakers and also a pair of winter boots but I cant remember the name And a really nice pair of gloves
  10. Got not one but two biker salutes yesterday. That made my day. Btw. Anyone use a seperate insurance company for their bikie? I went with my current auto insurer Progressive. I do have my mustang on a completely different policy with Hagerty and saved a ton.
  11. I am sending that to him. I've also always wanted to do a tour in Viet Nam which is my favorite country in the world. Knowing how to ride will definitely help my travel experiences. I often find myself in places where a motorbike or scooter is the only way to get from A to B. In Nicaragua I ended up riding a scooter while carrying a 20 lb back pack.
  12. So a little over a month in and I am absolutely loving this. I've been riding BMX, ramps, road racing, mtn biking since I was 4 so I feel like my learning curve is flattened as far as balace and cornering etc but still lots to learn. First few days it felt a tad scary going over 30. Now I feel pretty comfy at 45-50. Venturing further and further out of my neighborhood. (really need to go get that M on my license). I get nastly looks from the people in the million homes neighborhood a few hoods over as I go round and round through their neighborhood. Even ran a few grocery errands and took some stuff to baby momma house. The one thing that I instantly notice is what everyone says. Cars are dicks and oblivious. Im at a stop light. Why are you 2 feet from my rear? Bonus is that I havea a buddy from HS that lives in CO. He is involved in the production of major sports events like Olympics etc. He is a adventure rider and we are planning on doing this next summer. By then I should be really comfortable riding. https://www.motorental.ie/
  13. So I've been traveling this week on business and I'm missing my bike and riding. I assume this is normal
  14. Odd that this popped up for me. My son is graduating and turning 18 and hardly like to do much but did tell me he wants to go to Tokyo for their car culture. So away we go this summer
  15. Who had OG, Porro, and Mickey on their Tottenham scoring bingo card?
  16. Doesn't matter how it gets into the net
  17. Agreed. The global fish market system allows you to have fresh fish (aka flash frozen) almost anywhere with a fairly major airport. The idea that a restaurant is spending time and resources to get fish off the dock is probably pretty low. The days of "distance from the coast" as a sign of fresh fish I think it pretty far gone these days.
