    An old friend from the other side of town finally came by to try out his ebike on my backroads. He (another Joe) has put about 300 miles on his BeCool in about nine months which reflects his primarily interest which is riding his old fishing spots along the Outer Banks. We had a fine 14 mile...

    Elongated platform pedals

    I’ve got Catalyst on my Trek Allant, but only because the store manager recommended them even though they’re not in stores. I had a few problems with clipless (age?) so thought I’d move on to flat pedals. I like them though I have nothing to compare them to. A stable platform for my big feet (13)

    I had my best ride since getting a cast off my hand…unfortunately I broke something else at the ride’s conclusion. I glided into my barn, dismounted, and so did my fabled, indestructible Brooks saddle. A bit of hardware clattered to the floor. Yet an important piece was nowhere to be found...

    Lithium Battery charging.

    Thanks for the idea on discharge PedalUma. I have read recently somewhere, and persuasively, that the payback numbers on an EV is much lower. For example: a commercial user of e-vans said that the savings on fuel and maintenance is so stark that after five years of savings its like getting a...

    Lithium Battery charging.

    Two questions: I recently was forced off my ebike by injury…so it sat for 6 weeks with 95% charge. When something unexpected happens how do you discharge the battery to a safer level? I’m soon to hit the road for a trip…how helpful/paranoid are the innkeepers now about allowing the bike inside?

    I went a little further today (9m) taxing the hand, but not too much…my rotator above is actually complaining more. Look closely in the picture for Rab…he got his continents mixed up

    Bicyclist collides with a bear!

    If bears are closely related to pigs as I perhaps falsely remember, and Male pigs and bears are both boars, and females sows, do bears have tusks? or fangs? We can all agree they are fearsome weapons…yet statistically and personally Bambi does the damage…

    I took my first ride in six weeks after getting a cast off last week (broken hand). I might be jumping the gun…Ortho docs said to go for it…but the PT lady (Hand specialist) I saw after said hold off the riding for another three weeks…I split the difference and rode two miles to assess the...

    Bicyclist collides with a bear!

    I read this and my first thought was about the poor ebike guy…he just had his bike swiped and now was hiding from a bear

    ^ I was presenting a common observance of the times...no ‘better’. Great civilizations of the past functioned quite well without horse or car.
