This bike tried to kill me. Way too young and inexperienced to own such a led sled...

Sold it and walked away having the motorcycle box checked.... Much more fun being a race car driver in my opinion....

I recently sold my RD350 on Craigslist and had 13 people in line within 15 minutes. That was a fun starter bike after some jetting and filter work.
 

Friday yet?

Corporate drone. Dilbert's world is alive & well.
Never had another bike as a kid. Dad probably didn't want any more heated arguments with the boss lady. Fast forward a number of years. Young soldier driving out to Ft. Hood for new duty assignment. Never set foot in TX before. Just looking around at the country side on my trip I got "the fever." Bad. Real bad. :shock: Within about 4 months of being at Hood bought myself a brand new RM125. :like:
Let the fun begin.

Lurking through my imgur account, forgot I had these random pics I took from like 10-15 years ago.
Context: Property preservation worker(changed locks, cut grass, ect) and had a weird day of finding random insects.

Hi Jacob,

Although nice looking, it also shows that the insulation on the roof if inadequate and the owner should add 4-5" rock wool there.
Structured panel home ( no attic space) with 11" thick foam panels and metal roof that is shaded by trees with outside temps of highs in the 20's and lows in the minus single digits. Snow will sluff off now that we are here and heat is on once roof panels warm. Sounds like a freight train when snow lets go.

Odd. Have you checked with IR if there's a heat leak somewhere?

I got 10" wool slabs + 10" blown wool and the snow just sits there until spring with always on heating. Temps here range from -32'C to +32'C (-23'F to 88'F).

With a SIP roof, the insulation is directly under the roofing material. Now when the sun strikes the roof, it heats up the roofing material, melting the snow, then refreezing to form ice at the eves at night. The sun’s heat is prevented from penetrating the roof by the insulation. The heat is not penetrating the roof from below, but is being generated by the sunlight.
