    Insuranse rejects a claim on the basis that e-bike is a motorized vehicle.

    Up until the mid ‘90s GEICO was a cut rate car insurance outfit for Government employees and active duty military. I had a policy with them for maybe a dozen years and they had cheap rates and great claim services. Then Berkshire Hathaway bought out the company and expanded it, in the process...

    Largest e-bike company in the US, Rad Power Bikes, says it has to raise prices. Here’s why

    Eh?! It’s better to take a larger profit selling fewer bikes. That’s how capitalism works. They’re just getting ahead of the demand for premium bikes that’ll be generated once Uncle Joe subsidizes the inequitables to clear out Walmart of the cheap E-clunkers.

    Do you ebike to work? "the average American drives 16 miles to work each way, with a daily commute totaling nearly an hour round trip (USA)

    With Biden manipulating gasoline prices by releasing strategic reserves there’s no incentive for the masses to ride a bike. Now that I can fully agree with you on!

    I think those are decades old dated stereotypes of gun owners. Most new gun owners now are urban, many are black. Maybe they’re tired of thugs pushing them off of bikes too? https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/apr/05/us-gun-ownership-black-americans-surge

    Nah. In the majority of the United States you have the right to defend yourself against bicycle robbery. Thankfully there’s only a few “purple” states that step all over our constitution. They’ll eventually be overridden by the rule of law as judged by the Supreme Court in the near future.

    You don’t need to be a Rambo to defend yourself. There are tons of well established courses for self-defense with a handgun - they even include refresher training on current laws and regulations. Of course some people are panicky and not well suited to carry a firearm- a course will vett those...

    2022 Vado Radar Mounting Options

    I went through several iterations of mounting options before I realized it was something I was totally overthinking. The end result is an old Garmin mount epoxied to an aluminum strip bent at a ~ 45° angle and attached onto the fender with stick on Velcro tape. As we would say in the Old Navy...
