    Any Bicyclists Out There?

    To add...modern drive trains suck. Used to be that you just replaced the chain when it stretches out. Now, the entire drivetrain needs to be replaced after a few thousand miles.

    Any Bicyclists Out There?

    I have a Ti 29'er, a Ti Lightspeed Road bike and a bunch of others. It's a curse....

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2025?***

    Been working through a can of '18 Sutliff Red Crumble Cake. I threw one can in a jar about a year ago and let it sit. Did wonders. It's more fruit forward now, a very good all day smoke. Glad I squirreled away a few pounds for the future.

    ***What Are You Smoking, February 2025?***

    Been working through 50 g of 5 y/o "new" strang. It was pretty harsh in year 1, but after 5 years it has melded nicely. Have no idea what the original strang tasted like.

    I cracked a jar of Curly Block from '18. Another fine example of the genre.

    Any EDC CCW'ers?

    That dude would have sprung a leak if it had been my house.

    Your Opinion on Bruno Nuttens' Bings?

    I have one of his Bings. Nice straight grained piece. The bit is solid. Good smoker and did not have to break the bank.

    ***What Are You Smoking, August 2024?***

    Popped a tin of some 5 yo H&H Marble Kake. I had tried it before I tinned it up, it was good but rough. 5+ years in the cellar it has improved quite a bit. Less rough edges and a tad sweeter. Most excellent.

    Exactly like this one. Never gets wet. Fine piece of engineering. I love really gnarly blasts and imho MP is right up there with the best.

    What are You Watching? [2024] Please Rate 1-5

    The new Drive to Survive. It's the weakest of the seasons for sure. 3 out of 5. Next up will be Shogun, one of my favorite books as a young man.

    Oldest Smoked Tobacco...

    The oldest I have in the cellar is a '78 Mac Barren Dark Twist. The oldest I have smoked was some Hal o the wynde that was made by Charles. Forget the exact date but it was from 80's? Was great for about a week and then turned into shitdust. EDIT: I rehydrated some old Cope's Escudo. It ended...

    Escudo Alternative

    Davidoff Flake Medallions are available, pricey and excellent after a couple of years in the can.

    A Michael Parks Rhodesian. It really is an amazing pipe. Never gurgles, ever.

    Jim's C&D Sansepolcro 2024 Small Batch Review.

    On the fence on this one. The '19 was too strong for my taste buds. I've tried to re-try it a few times, to no avail.

    Formula 1 2024

    That's news. Have not heard confirmation of that. I know he is headed to the track, so I was assuming he was cleared. I am hopeful that Mercedes and Ferrari were sandbagging because it looks like a race for second at this point in time.
