Getting to Know Matti

[MattiThundrrr]

I've got 26 problems, but wheel size ain't one

 

[MattiThundrrr]

I've handled over 900 bikes in the last day and a half.

Not one was mine

I bet you feel like Sisyphus right now…

Nah, just an underappreciated warehouse dog.

BTW that's the 2nd Sisyphus comment on the forum in a month. That's above average

 

[Ulu]

I know just the dog in mind.

Didn’t he guard the gates to Hades or something? Cerberus, the dog.

 

[Ulu]

This forum always makes my brain spin.

Now I’m trying to figure out how to put the three headed dog logo on my project trike, but three wheels and three heads and four legs? I’m not sure how that works yet.

Time to put down the Internet and get back to work.

Carl turned over a new leaf, inspired some introspection on my part. I might just have room for improvement as well. I figure I'm annoying over 1/3 of the time.
What do you think, 37% less annoying posts by volume next year, or same number of posts, but 37% less annoying in content?

100% Matti 133% of the time

And more retro MTB content

And more cowbell

 

[MattiThundrrr]

And more cowbell

The next bike will be a woods bike, does a bear bell cut it?

You know it

How you figure 37%? Seems higher to me. . . j/k

I'm turning over a new leaf too. . . j/k

I'm going to miss you. . .




























j/k

 

[MattiThundrrr]

j/k

37% was calculated as enough to cover a third with a margin for error of approximately 3.7%. Not to worry, mi amigo, Cap and Chris Walken helped me to break the resolution in under 15 minutes. A new record for me!

Marin Museum of Bicycling/Mountain Bike Hall of Fame in Fairfax, California. There are frequent lectures and programs held there that would be of interest to the cycling public, such as the upcoming Mountain Bike Hall of Fame induction.

The building has video capability, and can go live on YouTube, if...

If they get 50 subscribers to the channel. Seems like a modest goal.

Photography 101… Aspect Ratio and Perspective.
The way you frame your pictures can really change the image. For example, this shot says end of the trail, a good spot to rest before turning around

But if you are able to change your perspective, what once was a barrier now becomes a new beginning.

Dang it, I'm so bad at this. This wasn't supposed to be a Photography 101 lesson, it was a Philosophy 101 lesson. I don't want to rewrite it. You do it yourself

Fun times: OddJob just hit 10,000 posts, every one a gem, I'm sure. It took him over ten years to hit the milestone. I joined in 2019, less than 1000 to go. I need to shut up a little...

No way

You keep doing you!!!!

 

[Captain Awesome]

And keep bringing that sweet MTB content!

 

[MattiThundrrr]

No.

Put down the wrenches. Walk away.

 

[Oak Tree]

Yeah, I can’t believe that seat post is backwards. What a dummy!!

 

[RustyGold]

No.
