There are two ways to make this happen: Sign up for Netflix with Chase Ink, this will give you the equivalent of 11% off if you have a Chase Sapphire card and can use the points. Buy a bunch of iTunes gift cards and use them to pay for your…

One thing that has been bothering me is that two of my bikes have quick release skewers and disc brakes. Although unlikely, it is possible that the QR can come loose. Most folks are shifting to through axle which is more reliable. However, it turns out that you can convert…

Well this had lots of parts but is pretty cool. Basically with the older Ultegra Di2 system, you need to add a wireless transmitter to update it and for it to give you gear and other information. It’s not really documented how to make this all work, so here’s a…

Seems like we are always needing more of these, so once again, let’s take a look at ultralight gear for tents, trekking poles and water purifiers, so the ultralight list at Outdoor Gearlabs is super helpful Tents Well, there is a tradeoff between lightweight and being sturdy, but we have…

OK, I’ve been updated to a new bike and here are some notes: The recommendations on tires have changed quite a bit. I used to ride 23mm at 110 psi, but now folks are recommending a wider 25mm at 90 psi, apparently it’s about the same footprint on the road…

The Points Guy. Can anyone tell we are back to the geekfest. A great list of flight apps. Flightradar24 is cool. I loved it when united had their ATC channel now it’s free. Finally Windy is good as is Tripit (president version free every the Amex card). Also use a…

http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/9to5macToys/~3/PMN-xAleGhw/ the LG 55 C6 is an incredible OLED screen. At $1400 it’s expensive but nearly 40% off its initial price. It’s kind of the perfect gamers screen. Talk about immersive! Main issue is getting one that has a defect. Amazon is awesome because they will just pick one up…
