Silicon Valley elites revealed as buyers of $800m of land to build utopian city

  • What a waste of good farmland! I can't believe that people do not value the thing that actually sustains us.

    • How important is the tires weight?

  • Rolling resistance has way more of an effect than weight. But that said, I would never trade off durability for weight especially for a commuter/bike touring bike. Punctures are a drag any time but especially when you are carrying a load.

    • Forests are losing their ability to hold carbon

  • Forget aging trees. Canadian forests are ablaze basically wiping out any green reductions in CO2 emmissions from industry or consumers. Besides the loss of property, wildlife and hopefully NOT people, it will take a long time for the Canadian Boreal forest to actually be an active carbon sink again.

    • World chess federation bars transgender women from competing in women's events

  • I'm still wondering why there is even gender based play in Chess.

    • A Texas Dairy Ranks Among the State’s Biggest Methane Emitters. But Don’t Ask the EPA or the State About It

  • It's only the second biggest Methane emitter in Texas. The members of the State Legislature have it beat hands down.

    • Grasshoppers threaten to devour Alberta crops following extreme heat | CBC News

  • Pandemic Disease, check. Fire, check. Floods, check. Locusts, check.

    • My current commuter.

  • I also have the chromoly Rove but in Silver. Love this bike. It is a real workhorse. I changed out the handlebars for Surly TruckStops which gives a slightly more upright riding position. Perfect for riding in town and among traffic. I run WTB Horizon's or Ventures when it is wet.

    • Do you think the guys on the titanic submarine will be rescued?

  • The 5 submariners chances of being rescued are very slim at this point but much much higher than the 500 migrants still missing off the coast of Greece who took to the waters not for a joy ride but to escape war and seek a better life.
