Not that I would have any experience getting away with that sort of thing.

Playing music through a speaker is incredibly rude.

Years ago when I did some night mtb rides there was a very strong guy who had a cassette player on his bars and he carried a selection of mellow jazz and acoustic guitar. He had a battery from a Honda Gold Wing mounted in the front triangle and 2 motorcycle headlights. We mostly stayed on fire roads and I liked following him because he lit up the whole road, plus, he just cruised.

"new" bike arrived. unboxed. dry rotted tyres replaced. assembled. test ridden. On the to-do list for it. replace the abomination of a saddle, get a battery for the shifter, lube the headset bearings. oh and fix the rear mudguard line.

I've tried it dozens of times, and failed every time. It just won't stick. It's baffling.

So to speak. I was trying to change my password and got locked out completely. I made that obvious one just so I could get in and make contact. I had thought that user had been deleted. Evidently not. I'm still awaiting a reply from User Assistance.

Imagine waiting 5minutes for the screen to load, only to be rewarded by one of DougRNS 's posts.

You're on edge? You need to relax some, maybe take Monday off.

Everyone who’d prefer not to hear, though I imagine you won’t understand. Like walking around drenched in cologne. Especially with terrible speakerphone speakers. Of you need music, get earbuds. This is my “we’re going to yell at you”. Like walking around holding the world’s worst boombox. I have no idea how anyone thought it’s acceptable.
