Random pic thread.

Indian trail marker tree beside my parents house . There's still a 4' wide path you can still see running past it.

Back about 25 years ago I tried some clipless bear traps and lost meat from my lower shin to almost my knee. Those same pedals are on my wife’s mountain bike now because she doesn’t like clip ins. I’ve warned her but she says they are fine since she doesn’t do anything aggressive on the trails.

You've got that exactly backwards, which is a very common mistake.

Clipless pedals are the ones that your shoe cleats click into. Platform pedals used to have cages (toe clips) that went around your foot to hold your foot in place, so the later pedals that your shoe locked into to hold your feet but did not have toe clips became "clipless pedals". Confusing, no....?

What you're calling "clipless" are actually platform pedals, and what you're calling "clip-ins" are actually clipless pedals.
 
Rescue training today. Taking out a windshield with an ax was way more fun than it should have been. Extrication and forcible entry are great ways to blow off steam!

Spent the day cruising in the Jeep. Ended up at a few different boat landings, Congaree National Park and wherever I felt like really. Somewhere off of Old Lykesland trail trying to find the Harriet Barber house. Public roads can be kinda cool at times.

Well what the hell ever. That damn pedal about tore my damn leg off.
 
Picked this up at an estate auction on Sat for $4. Just when I think I’ve saw it all something new happens.

This idiot. Yes those are 5 lug axles. The micro sized ratchet straps. And from behind those tires were leaning so bad I can’t believe the bearings hadn’t just shit the bed. Let’s not talk about the 1/2 ton truck towing way more than recommended but let’s not start another F150 thread. (Don’t mind my cracked windshield)
If that sets you off then you'd die when you saw how some of the locals haul stuff.

Pretty sure that's @UTfball68 and his cousins :p
Theres a pic somewhere of them haulin a ford tandem dump truck on that roll back and the rear tandem is hanging off the bed.Story is the DOT got em a few weeks ago for over weight and over height both on two trucks,$1300 fine ea.Like a Duramax or not that's the only thing that has lasted w them.The gooseneck trailer pictured has been so overloaded so many times the deck is bent at the back axle.
 
I've got maybe a dozen or so houses with Guatemalan families living in them. They all hate natural gas and not every house has gas so they get electric stoves. This particular stove is less than a year old in an otherwise very nice house and I don't get it.. I replace at least a burner a month at the other houses, but in my entire life I've never had a stove burner of my own go bad. What the hell.
