Since I'm recording my rides anyway, I might as well start putting up videos of the cars I see doing things like running red lights. I'm certainly not saying cyclists *don't* behave badly. I'm a cyclist, a pedestrian, and a driver--cyclists aren't any better. But cars are a lot bigger, and a lot more dangerous. If the SFPD is going to crack down on traffic violations, it should focus on motor vehicles.

Prendi un velista oceanico, uno che fa le regate sui Mini, sui Class 40 o 9.50, uno che è abituato a giocarsela ad armi pari in mezzo alle onde contro barche similissime se non uguali alla sua. Prendilo, e infilalo in una regata dove le classifiche vengono stilate con il calcolo dei tempi compensati. Lo farai impazzire. Si tratta proprio di una vela diversa: guardate un po' il video che mostra la "confusione" di Michele Zambelli e Luca Tosi, navigati marinai oceanici che hanno deciso di partecipare in doppio alla Rolex Middle Sea Race (608 miglia partendo e arrivando a La Valletta (Malta) dopo aver circumnavigato in senso antiorario la Sicilia passando per le Isole Eolie, le Egadi, Pantelleria e Lampedusa) sul Class 9.50 Illumia12 di Zambelli. "MA COME DIAVOLO SIAMO MESSI?" Una volta che i due si avvicinano a Lampedusa, riescono a connettersi a internet e visualizzano sul sito della Middle Sea le posizioni e i compensi, non capiscono chi sia davanti e chi sia dietro. La prendono sul ridere con la loro usuale simpatia, e comunque, per la cronaca, pur essendo arrivati secondi in reale mea loro categoria, dietro a un Solaris 42, hanno chiuso al quarto posto nella IRC x2. Un Class 9.50, in termini di compensi, paga tantissimo. Il commento di un loro follower su Facebook riassume tutto al meglio: "Benvenuti nel frustrante mondo delle barche oceaniche infilate a forza nell'IRC".

What do you get when you mix Cold War espionage, an 80-year-old warbird, and a pilot crazy enough to hijack his own airplane to escape communism? In this video, I fly Mira Slovak’s original Bücker Jungmann, a legendary German-designed WWII-era biplane with an unbelievable backstory. From Cold War defection to aerobatic stunts, this flight is packed with cinematic footage, vintage aircraft vibes, and a slice of aviation history you’ve probably never heard. Miroslav “Mira” Slovak was a Czech Airlines pilot who hijacked his own plane in 1953 to flee the Soviet regime, eventually becoming a U.S. citizen, air race champion, and aerobatic pilot. His story is straight out of a movie—and now, his historic airplane lives on. We took this 1930s warbird to the skies for a day of vintage aerobatics, tailwheel flying, and breathtaking air-to-air shots. Whether you’re into vintage planes, Cold War history, general aviation, or just love epic flying footage, this one’s for you.
