I Am Surprised That I Like The Show "Impractical Jokers"

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (79) • United States 23 Jun

There are 20+ tv's at the gym and depending on which machine you're on and for how long, you can catch a tv show or news or sports or whatever. They started putting on this channel with a show called "Impractical Jokers." At...

I Was There - Third World

Scott Ganschow @teamfreak16 (43830) • Denver, Colorado 23 Jun

Often, when I’m pulling an all-nighter and bored out of my skull, I’ll start searching You Tube, looking for concert footage from shows I’ve attended. Usually, it’s not hard to find something; sometimes, the quality is even pretty...

Peanut recipes

Fleur @Fleura (35359) • United Kingdom 23 Jun

With my haul of free peanut butter I had to decide what to do with it. I decided I would use it for cooking since I don’t know for sure whether the person may have eaten some directly from the jar with a spoon, for example, so I...

Free food!

Fleur @Fleura (35359) • United Kingdom 23 Jun

As I’m sure you know, I’m a keen user of ‘Freegle’, whereby people can offer things they no longer want for someone else to take away, or ask for things someone else may have going spare. Since I joined in 2003 I have given and...

Ron Rybs Never done gravel or any organised event. I do fancy the Bear Bones Welsh Ride Thing (see YouTube), but I'd need a partner as my map reading leaves a little to be desired. I do watch Juliet Elliot videos, she does a lot of gravel and has taken part in some...

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (79) • United States 22 Jun

Bike Leans - Western Slope Vietnam War Memorial

Scott Ganschow @teamfreak16 (43830) • Denver, Colorado 22 Jun

Today’s Bike Lean is not about scenery, or humor, or mural art; rather, it’s about honoring war dead. Taken about 3 years ago, this is my gravel bike, Agent Gravel, at the Western Slope Vietnam War Memorial in Fruita,...
