    When cycling, do you like listening to music?

    I have a Noxgear 39g wearable speaker. It is connected via Bluetooth to my iPhone. I typically stream Sirius XM 80s on 8 or one of the 80s variants.

    New and Interesting Accessories You Love

    Mine is the Garmin Zumo XT GPS. It is a rugged motorcycle navigator that I originally bought it for ATVing. The screen is 5.5 inches and it is brightest enough to see it the daytime outside. The largest bicycle computer screen that I am aware of is less than 4 inches. I just installed a 64 GB...

    Why Ebikes Are More Fun Then Motorcycles:

    I grew up on a small dairy farm. We always had horses. I got into mini-bikes and then motorcycles as I got a bit older. Both horseback riding and motorcycles are fun, but would be hard pressed to pick one over the other. As an adult, my wife and I purchased our hobby farm over 30 years ago. We...

    I want to take one of the Can Am electric motorcycles for a test ride. https://can-am.brp.com/on-road/us/en/models/motorcycles.html

    User Selectable E-Bike Class.

    I live in Minnesota and the laws here don't recognize either EUCs (Electric Unicycles) or quadricycles (four-wheel bicycles).

    User Selectable E-Bike Class.

    I disagree with that. There are Class 1 and Class 2 e-bikes that will go over 20 MPH coasting downhill. Some people could pedal over 20 MPH on a Class 1 or Class 2.

    I don't follow. Were there three attractive commentators or something?

    2026 FIFA World Cup

    I am just curious, do most of you normally follow soccer or is the attraction of this because it is in the United States this year?

    I saw this on social media this morning. This is awesome.

    Phone Mount Suggetions?

    I do something similar to that, except I wear a high visibility orange vest that has an inside pocket. I trust the inside pocket to hold my Apple iPhone 15. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09BDJ68J8?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1&th=1&psc=1

    Phone Mount Suggetions?

    My story goes back before I bought an e-bike. My wife and I own ATVs and a UTV. Several years ago I started looking for a Garmin for it and bought a Garmin Zumo XT, which is a motorcycle GPS. It uses a 1 inch RAM mount. The equipment is only one piece of the equation, though. You still need...

    Anyone have separate phone for bike accessories?

    No, at least not yet. I am glad that you posted this and happy that I found your post. A bit of background on me and my hobbies. My wife and I had horses for years, but now we travel in our RV and ride both ATV/UTVs and e-bikes. I bought a Garmin Zumo XT several years ago for ATVing before we...

    Do You Wear A Cap Underneath Your Bicycle Helmet?

    I wear a helmet when I ride my bicycles, but I have never worn a cap underneath. I am considering it, however.

    How Often And How Long Are Class 3 E-Bikes Traveling At More Than 20 MPH?

    At the risk of pointing out the obvious, under U.S. law, police officers must have either reasonable suspicion of a traffic/equipment violation or probable cause that a crime has been committed to stop a vehicle. These temporary detentions are considered "seizures" under the Fourth Amendment...
