I grew up seeing this in her art school portfolio and asked for her to frame it for me many years later when she managed a frame shop. I grew up obsessed with the Beatles starting at 6 years old and later learned about the rest from her too. Hope her work from when she was 16 is appreciated here.
I saw Neil Young’s Old Ways sitting next to Bad Bunny’s DtMF this morning on my shelf and then saw SZA’s Ctrl above it and had a fun idea. What are other groupings in your collection with nothing related except the covers?
Other albums in mine:
TWIABPAINLATD, Harmlessness (in the green group)
Collage group:
Alvvays - Alvvays

Red faces Group:
Belle and Sebastian - If you’re feeling sinister
Deerhunter - Microcastle / Weird Era

I try to avoid using it just because it’s so annoying to put away.
…definitely for the better.
I got into mountain biking in 2013 on a Surly Krampus. I rode for a year or two trying to figure out what I wanted next. After several demo days and loaners, I was locked into wanting something that was full suspension, carbon, 1x drivetrain, dropper post, and 27.5.
At that time though those were $4,000+ bikes and there were almost none on the used market that felt like a good deal. I just really remember not wanting to spend more than $2,500 and nothing was showing up used at that price at all. I ended up getting a Norco Range Carbon for $2,500 but it was from a friend who worked at a bike shop. I think on the used market it would have been out of my price range.
Now though???
I’m getting back into mountain biking after a break, and shopping for a used bike to bring friends out on. Currently in my area there’s more than 100 carbon 1x dropper post full suspension bikes for sale under $2,500. There’s several bikes with carbon wheels in that price range too. I know those trends are more than a decade old now but I just feel like the used market is so much more rad now than it used to be.
It’s a good time to shop used for people like me I guess.
What’s the trend that can’t be bought at a good deal right now? E bikes? Electronic shifting?
South Coast Trail, from La Push to Oil City. 5 dads who haven’t backpacked in about a decade. Thanks for taking a look.
