    Do you have a photo of the bike to see how he stabilized the frame after cutting the top portion to make it a step through?

    I really love my new E-Bike. My only issue is that even though I am 5’8” tall my legs are short with a 29” inseam while most my height have a 32” inseam which makes it a little difficult to get over the upper support but learned to manage it. I had to move the seat back on it’s rails and raise...

    Electric Bike vs. Regular Bike

    Because of hip issues and back fusions at 73 years of age pedaling up hill had gotten to be a deal breaker. Since I got my E-Bike I love riding and ride longer and farther. I use lower PAS levels until I start to tire then raise it as needed.

    My dream bike got stolen. Lessons, next?

    Sorry your bike was stolen. I just got an E-bike on October 2, 2025. The other day I ran across a bike insurance website called Project 529. You can pay monthly or yearly. Mine is $130 a year. I do not know a lot about it yet. And hope it is decent.

    New to the Group - Looking for Gravel Friends in the Bay Area

    I will have to get a “Gopro” style camera to do that and find a place on my already crowded handlebars to put it. I know you can get a secondary bar. When I ever get a camera I will purchase the extra bar.

    Florida Legislature considers problematic provisions that threaten cyclist safety.

    I liked watching B-52 and FB-111’s take off and land when Carswell AFB was a SAC base in the 70’s.

    I do not miss the days of sun burns in my teens and twenties. I don’t take shirt off as I am scarred in front because of Triple Bi-Pass and other surgeries and all over my back with those surgeries. I am sure I am ‘white as a marshmellow” also. Dad, my younger brother and sister have the brown...

    Rear Wheel Removal Tip

    Michelin High Milers got the best wear of any tire we tried on the Original DFW Airport Train (Originally called Airtrans). Firestone absolutely the worst and only got 10-19K miles on them. Very soft rubber and did not work well on my sons first car in 2001 that came on them. The best thing we...
