Anyone have experience with access or sasktel for home security? Looking for a reasonably-priced smart system that can be accessed remotely and has peripherals like door/window sensors, themostat, temperature sensor and water sensor. Any other companies we should consider? Thanks guys!

Hey guys, just got the 50w mk2 and loving it. Was thinking about covering some Sloan songs and wondered if anyone had a tone for "Rest of my life": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygejqgBm9l0

Hi Guys, I've worn out the drivetrain on my cx bike again and I'd really like to convert to 1X. I will be buying a new chain, cassette and chainrings at minimum as these are toasted. Intended use is as my rainy day cx mud racer, so I'm looking for a budget option that I won't feel too bad about trashing, but still race worthy.

Current set up:

-Crank is a Shimano CX70

-Shifters are Ultegra ST-6700

- RD is a Shimano 105 5700 (long cage) running 11-30

Ideally, I would like to get a cassette with a range like 11-36 and a 38 or 40 narrow wide chainring up front.

I am trying to figure out what my options are. For example, is there a wide-range compatible (clutched) rear derailleur out the

We are enjoying some backyard fires this fall and looking for a bit more clean burning firewood. Hoping someone has a recommendation for someone who can deliver a truck load. What prices have you paid for a half cord? full cord? and was it good?

Thanks in advance! Happy Hallowe'en!

The options for underwear seem so grim these days. Even low quality cotton boxer walmart briefs are like 3 / $25 here in Canada. I'd really like to find an option for ordering quality wool men's and women's underwear online. Any frugal tips?

I have also heard that sewing underwear diy style is a great option. Any experiences?

I'm looking into replacing the concrete steps out front of my house. I know a lot of people have done theirs in my neighbourhood (Douglas area) and I'm hoping will share their experience. Did you hire a company and how much did it cost? Or did you rent equipment and DIY it?

My eavestrough has a low spot and water leaks over the walkway, which is creating quite the skating rink. I'm interested in either repairing or replacing the eavestrough, but don't have a huge budget. Can anyone recommend a company who specializes in eaves repair? Any information you could share about how much you paid for similar repairs would be welcomed as well.

We moved this winter into a place where we can have a garden. I'm wondering if you guys have any favourite things to grow that work well in the Regina soil. Was thinking about tomatoes, potatoes, cabbage, carrots, beans, these sorts of things. Any tips?

Hey everyone,

My wife's bike has been having a problem with the lower pulley on the rear derailleur jamming up in cold temperatures. It doesn't seem blocked by ice or snow, but just completely stops turning, even while she's been actively pedaling. I took it apart and cleaned and regreased the bushing and it all seems fine but continues to happen.

Derailleur is a SRAM X5 8 speed from ~2012.

I am wondering what my options are. Is an after market jockey wheel likely to fix this? Perhaps a set of those CNC machined ones from amazon?

Or should I just upgrade the whole derailleur? Any suggestions for that?

Thanks in advance!
