Oh hell! Just when my bank account was trending positive! :eek:

For what it's worth the "Places You Ride Your Hydra" thread is somewhat informative regarding your concerns. This is where I ride mine and it does just fine. No problems: You also might check out Acme's posts. He rides the crap out of his bikes in very rough country.

Bumping this cautionary tail for the Afternoon/Evening crowd. Got ME thinking that's sure.

Well yeah. If you ride up on a chair lift.

In my lifetime Americans have made large strides in environmental awareness. We forced revolutions in automobile powering, got rid of most of our coal fired plants, etc etc. Yes, I do not deny that we have offshored our dirty industries. And we have to correct this. But, the world needs...

I think it was Timpco once said something to the effect of, "A Euro-bike will make you work like a donkey". Or something to that effect. Not totally sure.

Such was my intent. 👍

Funny. Really. Especially given It was only a year ago that bringing up the 'T' word would get you flogged around here. 🤣

I thought of that but my concern is for all my stuff I keep in my storage trailer with my bikes .... where I also charge them AND store my batteries when not in use. I can't afford to lose that stuff. 🤔 And the trailer cost me $9k. :eek: I'm feeling like this is the universe giving me one...

Forest fires regularly create 'spot' fires out ahead (downwind) of themselves a mile to a mile an a half with just some wind. With lots of winds or fire tornadoes ... who knows? Imagine a flaming pine cone taken up in a fire tornado then moved horizontally by a 25mph wind. Five miles would...

The guy I linked above, The Lookout on you tube, makes a substantial case that S Lake Tahoe was saved, in large amount, by previous extensive clearing and fire prevention done by the Forest Service. Ya think people will l listen? I was surprised to learn that the FS actually bought up many...

Gee, and MAYBE, just maybe get back to drilling the oceans of clean burning natural gas sitting under thousands of acres of California? Or they 'could' build some of the latest tech nuclear plants.

Tact is not Rome's strong point but the cables and wires on WW bikes COULD use some management.

There's a forest management guy on You Tube who has been doing very good updates with maps on the main Cal fires: The Lookout
