I love your description of Switzerland, as I was there last year I can tell it is true (but worth it at least once to get there).

For me it is still quite hard to find specific product or something which doesn’t exist yet - for example last year I brewed beer with wine grape juice and because I doubled it as school project I found out it is quite hard to tax it so nobody is making it.

So yes I get the point but for me it still offers some added bonus compared to commercial beer.

I brew not because the price but because I want to try stuff and do some bit wild stuff that just isn’t available here.

I also worked in a professional craft brewery so I know a bit about the pricing and stuff like that. But I don’t think you need that much advanced brew equipment to make something bit more demanding.

That is really confusing even for me. For that money you can buy pretty large second hand brewing setup. Like 200-300l everything included.

Yeah as a Czech guy it is quite a bit different here.

It looks great but for me it is missing the beer tap.

Yeah “Who needs a hole” kinda guys…

My biology teacher then commented about all the features other animals evolved - bones, spiral shape, detaching one for long distance use in octopuses…

Yeah ours are kinda boring guys.

For older bikes there is dutchbikebits.com

It’s not that expensive, decathlon is cheaper but you can find there parts for old POS bikes with good price.

My biology teacher commented about it when we had the lesson about reproduction: “You know the human penis is quite boring compared to other animals”

I used multiple types of tapes, longest lasting and most comfortable was some long tape from SQlabs.

Right now I am looking at Grepp cloth tapes, they are bit more pricey but should last pretty much forever, you just have to wash them sometimes.

Just a tip for using WD-40 on bikes for regular maintenance it is good to know what for it was developed - protective oil coating for steel/stainless steel plates.

So it can be used to give nice shine to the frame paint after cleaning or it is excellent for coating cassette and chain before longer storage (it leaves the oil coat and protect it from rust).

The side effect of needing to cover every craves of the surface means that it is penetrating quite deep so people started using it everywhere - stuck bolts, hard to oil parts…

As others said it isn’t the best or even good product for what you want to use it for.

That said there are options for touring, for example last year I started my tour with waxed chain. It isn’t the best solution either, it doesn’t like wet conditions without bit more maintenance than oil (if you don’t do it it starts to rust).

I switched to oil and bit more cleaning after a while, but because I use spirit stove I had already some alcohol with me so in the end it was quite a breeze to deal with it. Also when you use drip on oil and apply it correctly (just enough on rollers and wipe the excess) it last quite a bit longer and doesn’t muck that much.

For one product I would take something for wet conditions in drip on package. I have something from motorex.

But if the condition of the trip is right the wax is better option.

I am looking for some trips in Asia. But the plain tickets are pricy so it will have to wait until I have a good plan and probably some friend to do it with me.

For now I stick to countries where I don’t have to deal with stuff like visa… So EU and European economic area.

So I am interested in your trip as well.

You know how it’s said “Visit Russia before Russia visits you”. That is my main concern in that area.

But the problem in Spain at that time is the weather, it is just too damn hot for me to go there in summer.

So even though I haven’t seen full solar eclipse yet I am more inclined to go north.

I didn’t thought about going there even before current events…

It depends what you have, the jockey wheels usually have slip bearings/bushings and they don’t mind it that much.

Unfortunately it is net positive if you count in pensions.

I read economic research few years ago and the few years less for pension is more than enough to offset the healthcare.

It just lists the elements in a form of chemical formula with their estimated quantity in universe.

Macinka is an idiot.

That being said he plays important role to form the government and at least part of ANO voters expects some reaction that Babiš probably can’t deliver because of that.

It is just lose lose situation right now, do nothing against it - people will protest (and it will have bad outcome), try to confront him and he doesn’t form a government (and will go to prison).

I didn’t expect that the shitshow, everyone saw from far away after the elections, will get that bad that fast.
