Thanks :-)

The TY175 is the least powerful yet most fun to ride, that's why out of those mentioned it's the only one we're keeping and I aspire to convert it to electric when the opportunity arises

That professor achieved the perfection which we should all aspire to.

For me, it's how the key feels in the head. It doesn't go in far enough that you can let the key just sit there on it's own like with a hex head.

I once received a verbal warning at work because my emails were too brief.

I have since moved to Spain where the email style is more brief and to the point. It is much better.

I find Torx unpleasant to work with.

I appreciate your passion for the superior type of fastener. I work in both metric and imperial for all types of fastener and metric allen is the easiest to work with in my opinion.

There are not too many metric hex sizes.

There are too many imperial sizes, many of which have silly names.

Having cut the head off many rounded bolts I question your judgement.

I have enjoyed all of the recent Trek I've seen (Kelvin and Picard S1/S2 very much included). I'm really looking forward to watching Discovery when I can.

Media that has a different style is most enjoyable, I do not want to see the same style all the time, and seeing a different angle can be a breath of fresh air even if it is not to my taste.

I enjoyed the first two seasons of Picard more than the third. It takes all sorts, I guess.

You can. And more importantly, I can answer!

Left, leaning on the maintenance mattress, is my wife's 2002 Gasgas Pampera 250. Center front is my 1999 Graham Jarvis edition Sherco 250 trials bike. Behind, partly under a cover is my baby, a 1980 Yamaha TY175 with custom everything. Hidden behind the Yamaha under the green cushion is a 110cc MiniGP bike.

This is the maintenance area, we have more bikes parked in the garage area, and a couple more in the cellar ... when people say you should have "N +1" bikes they're not right, when you hit more than 6 or so at the same time you have too many to really enjoy each one.

Oh yeah, when it comes to humor I clear it completely
