Nah, Canada. I only hop on the 50z or 100z pool once in awhile.
I’ve been thinking of starting to try the regular 6-max tables though.
Players seem better at the 6-max games honestly.

I've heard very little, but am also frightened by too long songs with lots of wanking/jamming. Any concise / keeping it within the lines starters?

You guys should all get your Miami Vice suits out and go do some coke in honor of this passing.

nj doesn't have zoom so i really don't know. admittedly, i'm also sure that many of the 30, 50, and 100nl regs i play with would (well, maybe "should", but possibly wouldn't) probably play 2-3 levels lower if they were on PS Rest of World

I didn't realize JotS was an avid player still. I miss when you used to comment on HH all the time.

On the subject of strip clubs, I guess I need to do more research. I was doing some fantasy research while high one night. It said I could easily open for $100k-$200k. Maybe that's true, maybe it isn't. It does sound like a headache, but good money if done right. Are there any cheap businesses that I could open for like $10k-$20k in the meantime when this boils over?

If you’re going to do this right you put the suit on. This old electronica stuff requires suits, coke, and lots of hairspray. Probably like one side of your face covered in makeup too, but I’ll let you all decide on that one.

Huh...

I always thought that strip clubs were 110% fronts and $$$ laundry.

Never heard of anyone wanting to open one as a business venture of its own.

Hey Ace...

Thoughts on the Honda CRF450L?

Looks like they are available for $8500 in my area.

Seems to me like a pretty sweet rig.

Having a hard time remembering that I cannot responsibly own a motorcycle...

Ya, for sure. I see plenty of 100NL and even 200NL regs making pretty big mistakes, myself included, but maybe a little less often.

Remind me again what terrain/conditions you are trying to ride?

Maybe childcare or tutoring service. Or food delivery.

Or a bicycle chop shop and resell parts. I've heard Ann Arbor is rich with bikes you can steal easily and they won't do sheit about it.

If you're serious about this you'll take a part time job at the most successful franchise possible and then buy your own franchise once you feel like you could run the place yourself

There are tons of fairly affordable ones that could generate decent income. For example it costs 15k and another 100k or so to get a Subway franchise and that'll generate more money and have a significantly lower chance of failure than your own sandwich place because you won't need the specific talent or expertise needed to make it work, just some common sense and 100-200k

If you value your life at all do not open a subway.

In reality... 90% black top. Lulz.

But I have access to woods trails in northern NH which are generally tight single track, wet, rocky, only occasionally sandy.

So, this isn’t really my area of expertise as I don’t dual sport... butttttt here are the bikes I would look at..

CRF450L
KTM 690 (people say this is a big bike, but I have a buddy that will ride this bish in the gnarliest stuff... he is pretty expert though. Real badass on bikes)
KTM 500EXC-F
Husky FE501
Yamaha WR450F


The Husky and KTM are basically the same bike (come from the same manufacturing plant) and as much as it pains me to say this.. I’d probably look at those bikes... unless you don’t mind challenging yourself on the 690.

The outlier here is the Yammy. I owned a fuel injected WR and it ripped. Out of all of these bike it’s going to be the most agile, dirt bike feeling bike. I’ve taken it up some gnarly single track and it just beasted with no issue. Tons of guys super moto these bikes. Possibly one of the most popular enduro bikes to SM.

I don’t hear any bad things about the CRF450L so I don’t think you’d go wrong there. I just know guys who ride the 501 and 500 and they couldn’t be more happier. The price tag is gon’ bite you harder is all. The Austrians are really proud of their stuff.

Now if you really want to be a badass do like I did.... Beta 300rr 2 stroke... the non race versions come street legal. You can find a couple year old bikes barely touched for great prices. I see them all the time on the east coast for cheap af. Slap a rekluse on it and f that single track up. Also 2 strokes are lol easier to work on than 4 strokes so there is that. Get an extra set of wheels with DOT tires and call it a day. (This is probably not the ideal scenario for you, but I figured I’d throw it out there).

I'm REALLY hoping for an in person fall, not just for football, but for tutoring. I figure I can charge at least $50/hr doing Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, Econometrics, Calculus, and lower level French tutoring. I do have two semesters worth of experience. Also, rich families with HS students that they want to go to U-M.

Not sure about delivery, there are all of those services already.

What's so bad about subway?

And what's the point of working part time at the franchise before owning one? FWIW, I do not have $100k atm.

I don't think the 2stroke is going to be legal on-road here.

I'm just looking at the $8500 for the Honda and can't really see spending $11500 on the KTM.
