It is true only an e-biker drinks Imperial Stout and only post ride :) The Sour part is the best! Besides, mostly wrong glass and too big portions :)

The Vado SL e-bike sensor has not been certainly connected. Strange things do happen to ANT+. It happened not once and not twice one of the actual sensors was unable to get its ANT+ ID, so I had to recognize the e-bike sensors again! The most nasty behaviour I met was all the sensors had got...

Is your ACE updated, Jeremy? Please try adding the LEV Range field to your Workout screen for a while. Does the Range display? Or, does the LEV Travel Mode display? If not, I have a suspicion the E-Bike sensor has been never connected. There are three sensors that a Wahoo connects to and...

Call: Wesołych Świąt i Szczęśliwego Bożego Narodzenia! Response: Dziękuję i wzajemnie! Charge would laugh! https://drive.google.com/file/d/13RXsY9ALIsY3icKo2Y4dkeE0ycnN8uDd/view?usp=drive_link (A 2008 recording of mine. A German carrol) :D O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum Wie grün sind deine Blätter...

Yes it does. The messages are of this kind: Right turn ahead Turn right Sharp turn right ROUTE! The voice navigation is only present on the ACE. No, it is autonomous on the device. A beautiful feature is the Bike Bell. Click on any command label and the device rings at the level of...

I have not used the big Garmin myself (only a tiny 540). The only thing I can say is the big and clear map on the ACE combined with the excellent navigational aids as well as voice instruction* is worth its money! You might see this post...

Here's an edited extract from Wikipedia (PL): Szczodre Gody (Generous Holidays) – in Slavic tradition, a holiday celebrating the winter solstice, preceded by Szczodry Wieczór (Generous Evening). The victory of light over darkness symbolises the time when the days begin to grow longer and the...

Oh, those Americans... Once a year, animals speak the human voices. I was hoping for Uma to open up.

So, what year you were born, Uma? Honestly? A nice photo of yours would be the most welcome, too!

Correctly. There are other solutions for compliance, such as Redshift ShockStop suspension stem, which can be installed on any rigid bike (unless it is the integrated cockpit). However, most gravel cyclists rely on properly lowly inflated tyres. A good gravel tyre is supple, and can be inflated...

What Vado do you smoke then?

I only know the THC addiction is not a good thing.

Uma? He's a kiddo. That's why he wriggles like an eel instead of just giving his actual age. There are a way more things he doesn't remember, and the fact he knows this or that music is because of the recordings... I was born two months and 10 days after one Yuri Gagarin entered the outer space.

Today, it was the first time I chickened out because of the cold. It was -7 C all the day, and I was expected to join a 60 km ride along the Vistula in Warsaw. No way! The drop in the temperature was too sudden! I had an infection for a month in November and promised my gf in London I would not...

Which reminds me of a man met on the Sudovia Gravel 2025 race route. It was the most difficult ride and race I've ever experienced. Even if it was mid-May, the temperature was down to 3 C, it rained all the time, and it was windy. Premium gravel roads turned into jelly, and dirt roads became...
