I rode about 16 miles today, the picture is an intersection where I stopped to take a break. I generally start at my house for my rides and its rural farm country. A lot of corn and soybeans grown around here with occasional winter wheat and quite a bit of hay.

I rode 15 miles Into town today to run an errand. I made sure to get done before 10 am because of the hot spell we‘re in right now. A “car guy” place who is into the antique signs and gas pumps. They are called visible gas pumps because you could see the gas in the large glass enclosure...

I rode 10 miles this morning. The weather is turning brutal, high heat and high humidity. When I got back the air temp was 86, not bad but the feels like was 96. A couple pictures along the road to my house, this is less than a mile from where I live. The deer was a picture in front of my...

I rode 22 miles today. Nice day, fairly light winds but it’s going to get hot and humid the next few days. The first picture is about as close as I can zoom with my cell phone, turkey vultures are sitting on top of this old corn crib. The second picture is the same view just not zoomed in...

We’ve had an Thule Easyfold for over 3 years now. So far so good, it’s got several thousand miles on it. I added a LED light strip to mine that plugs into the trailer light setup on my truck.

I thought my Bosch was clicking also, it was the front chain ring or the pedals. The bike shop put both on.

To much judging going on here. The kid may have been riding like an idiot or he may have been fine and the woman might have been an e bike hater. Either way it’s not her job to follow people and enforce the law.

I did 22 miles today when I rode to a nearby city park called Spring Lake. I usually ride out there a couple of times every year. A little bit more hills for me with nearly a 1000 feet of elevation gain.

I rode 20 mikes today. I saw this whitetail deer while I was walking from our house out to my shop to get my bike. The second picture is the Performing Arts Center they are building at the local college. They’ve been working on it a couple of years now. It’s of particular interest to me...

My Trek Verve 3. It’s about 4 years old, 6200 miles. Nothing special about it.

A couple of pictures from my 23 mile ride today. Straight roads and rows of soy beans.

There is a website that compares countries to any US state by size. I usually compare a country to Illinois since I’m from there. For example Poland is 2.2 times bigger than Illinois but Texas is 2.2 times bigger than Poland.

To The OP I looked up the bike you bought and it looks like a nice one. Keep in mind I don’t offer this service to everybody but I’ll break it in for you. That first 500 to 600 miles can be difficult so I’ll do that for you, just drop it off at my house. 😉

I rode 22 miles today, for those of you on the metric system I think that’s 456 kilometers but my math is a little fuzzy.😀. The picture is on a flat river bottom area with a couple or nice house tucked up on top of the bluff with great views. The picture is from the same spot one is just...

From a physics point of view torque is a twisting motion with no movement. Imagine twisting on a screw with a screwdriver but there is no movement, that is torque. Power on the other had has movement. Do the same amount of work twice as fast and you have more power. You can fudge power...

I had to look up the Trek you test road. The way I view it that it’s a road bike with a little bit of assist. It doesn’t have a powerful motor or a very big battery. I also know it has the “look“ you’re after. You might think outside the box and go for a bike that has more power and a bigger...

I rode 21 miles today. I went by this horse with a foal. It’s an Amish farm so some day it will be put to work. I also went by this solar farm that is new and not quite in service.

I did 13 miles today. The first picture is a farm pond getting overgrown with cattails. The second picture is the same place looking down the road.

RabH, nice ride as usual. I still think your making up the names of places.😉

I rode 13 miles today. This is a typical view in my area, in this case a soybean field just getting started.
