DT "say anything" thread

Okeedokee, that's about where we are for a similar shop. One thing won't get dramatically more expensive when we move!

Did Jen have a choice in the PCS?  I think things have gotten worse over here since you left. Don't get me wrong now, it would be nice to see your smiling faces again  but the island has been going downhill, like most places I suppose though.........

[eltristo]

Not really a choice, no. I was hopeful for Monterey, but it wasn't on the table. She applied for two places - Hawaii and Whidbey Island, WA - and obviously got Hawaii.

What's been getting worse (or is it everything  ?)  I certainly had some reservations about going back. It's a big move. We don't know exactly where she'll be working, so we can't begin to estimate where to try to live. Cost of living is, obviously, atrocious, and salaries aren't really commensurate. Jen is cushioned somewhat by her military-ness, but only relative to her current pay. I'm a bit up in the air for work still.

Other than that, it all sounds perfect!

So sad...Motorcyclist, Sport Bike, Cycle, Cycle Guide they're all gone...

With, I predict, Cycle World soon to follow...

Uh oh................

[MadDuck]

The new Cycle World .........  a mix of the old and Motorcyclist ...... nothing like it ever from the American press  ...... awesome ! !   Count me in as a subscriber ! !       

Got the December issue of Cycle World recently and sat down last night to read it. You know, the Sat. eve, beer, smoke, blues-rock & motorcycle race / movie night in the garage. Have been meaning to send my check and the business reply mail subscription renewal thing into Cycle World.  DAMN ! ! !            Wouldn't you know it ? ?  Now they are gone from print too.  Read that mag from cover to cover like the precious thing that it is.  Such an old time luddite I am.  I think it is a seminal moment in motorcycle publishing. Digital will never be the same.

Mutual feelings here...at one time I was subscribing to CW, Motorcyclist, Cycle, Cycle Guide and Dirt Bike...

Anyone know if WSBK is going to be broadcast on TV this season?  I see that MotoGP will be on NBCSN...

[MadDuck]

Google it, I guess. Other than subscription I have no idea. Never occurred to me to search.

[Speed 3 Pilot]

I've searched and all indicators pointed towards NBCSN but I can't find any listings on that channel for WSBK, MotoGP yes, but not WSBK...

YouTube is good and all that but I think Gene is missing being able to watch/record the whole race like we used to do when it was on BeIN. I subscribe but the features aren't nearly as good as the MotoGP subscription.

[ducpainter]

The motogp subscription is worth every penny.
