    I thought Vespa boasted about having single-sided wheels on both ends for easy tire changes?

    Where to get tires installed?

    The beauty of the Rabaconda is that the only effort required is the pushing the ratcheting arm downwards, so as long as the table can hold your body weight, it will be more than enough. And since it ratchets, you don't need to worry about doing everything in one single motion - you can stop...

    Meditative riding, preferences and hondas

    Let us know when you find a single bike that can do all that, never mind a Honda. Isn't that why you've gone through so many bikes over the years? Every bike is a compromise, so for me the first thing it has to do is make me grin under my helmet. And the challenge of dealing with a bike with...

    I don't know if this is true, but a co-worker who used to work at a chicken processing claims that for the Halal process, they run the conveyors under video monitors playing the prayer that's required, and then to maximize production they speed up the conveyors and play the video at high speed...

    I am sadly addicted to Cool Whip even knowing there's only trace amounts of dairy in it.

    They never had a Toronto factory in the early 90's? I distinctly remember it was Maple something or other, not Schneiders.

    It was more because of which parts went into the ham than the actual process.

    A couple of my friends worked part time at Maple Lodge Farms making ham. They both said they'd never eat ham again.

    Hard to beat their $1.50 hot dog / polish sausage including a drink. Probably the only place I'll order one. I really miss their turkey pesto sandwiches.

    Did I ruin this tire?

    All you need is to keep the tire from sticking to the rim when it's going over. Worst case scenario, just do as Hailey would, and Hawk Tuah!

    Did I ruin this tire?

    There's also this, but there is such a thing as too much lube and your tire will spin on the rim if applied improperly: https://www.princessauto.com/en/product/tire-bead-lube/PA0008223208/8223208

    Did I ruin this tire?

    You have a perfectly ruined tire you should be practicing on. Mount the bad bead first, then practice mounting and unmounting the good bead before you ruin another new tire. It's not the lube, especially if you're using spoons - it's the technique. Keep the opposite side of the tire in the drop...

    There are times when it's worth paying the premium for high quality tools. Sockets and wrenches need to have close tolerances or you pay for it in stripped fasteners.

    Where to get tires installed?

    In fariness, it's pretty easy to scratch a rim and/or ruin a tire if you do it wrong, and worst case if you don't realize you are riding on an unsafe tire. As for ballers, I'd say @NuggyBuggy is the real baller for practicing on his Ducati rim and a brand new tire.
