Actually I have found just the opposite with low pressures. With the pressure low the tire deforms over the branch and with the tire pressure high the branch and rocks seem to get spit out like the game of tidily winks. Sometimes it can sound like gunfire.

I agree with you for the most part Stephan but, I, I, I just gotta screw with the bike. I can hear my father! "Yeah just hadda mess with it didn't cha?" I have spent more than I would have on a commercially available bike to this point but, but, them thar bikes are unfkwithable for the most...

Better yet, the boat can get close enough to the side of the canal for someone to throw you and ice-cold water My frame is also titanium and is a bit flexible. This is a fat bike frame with 100mm/197mm through axle spacing. The fork is a pretty flexible RockShox Bluto. Those batteries are...

The trip is actually over. The boat was the sag wagon, the nightly accommodations and the bail for rain. We were out only a week. We launched in Tonawanda and went just west of Rochester and returned along the same route. I sold the boat to my nephew at the conclusion of the trip. I am...

Had a great time riding along the Erie Canal. Here is a picture of my bike, my riding buddy poodle and my boat in the background. It doesn't get better than this. I have agreed to sell my boat to my nephew who is operating the boat in this picture.

Getting ready to leave tomorrow.

To me, charging at an EV charging station would be the equivalent of sitting for 2-3 hours at a gas pump filling a gas can with a syringe. If I pulled into a gas station and saw that I would be pissed if there were no open gas pumps. I would think there is a higher than I am willing to take...

I have not had my trawler in the water for 11 years. My nephew and his wife are going to captain the boat through the canal, and I am going to ride. I need to average about 6 mph. That is about what the boat will do when taking bridges and locks into consideration. I will not have to carry...

After a couple of well publicized deaths in Ohio, every one of those bollards were removed on rail trails here. You can still occasionally find them in front of wide foot bridges that will not support motor vehicle.

It's not bad when its really cold. The snow is nowhere near a slick as it is when the tenps are higher. When I say cold I mean below -12C. I need battery heat and like heated grips along with poggies. I wear a ski helmet and true cold weather cloths. No one-piece fatbag clothing.

That is bad ass.

The saddle with the middle missing is an Infinity Seat Saddle. No point in huge range until I installed that saddle.

It's worse than you thought. There are no water bottles on the bike. There is a cooler with ice in the trailer and I refill the mug. At least this time its potato chips instead of hot pork rinds and beer for the camp. 15 amps between 4 batteries is only 3.75 amps per battery. The time savings...

I am running 52-volt 49 Ah. First of all, you will notice in the picture that I have a Kill-O-Watt meter plugged into the outlet first. This lets me monitor power draw by the charger. Power draw starts out down around 800 watts and climbs to over 900 watts about the time the batteries reach...

Something does not add up here. From your monthly bill you car consumes 187 watt hours per mile including power losses. Your stated range is 150 on 40 Kwh or 266 watt hours per mile after charging losses. Much more believable. $.11 per Kwh has got to be the best in the states. I live where...

I tour with my e bike and have a four-battery setup and 15-amp charger. The most reliable place I have found enroute to charge is a park pavilion, park office or town square gazebo. I look on google before I go for those pavilions. You are under cover and have a picnic table to eat lunch etc...

To be reasonably safe in the winter you need big sipped knobs and full studded tires.

Be careful what you guys wish for. You are all advocating regulation on us the likes of which the originators of the US regs tried to avoid. The power regs were written by a couple of Electrical Engineers out of MSU very carefully to keep bicycles, bicycles and motorcycles, motorcycles and not...

I will stand by what I wrote. It's no skin off my nose if you reject what I wrote.
