    Electric Car thread

    What was the gist of the story? Pay wall stopped me from reading anything. Who pays to read news on the Internet anyway?

    So what's your other hobbies or interests?

    Yeah, Manny will go down as one of the greats for sure, that's why Floyd "Money" Mayweather avoided him as long as he could, hoping he'd lose a half step before the met inside the squared circle. It worked out for Floyd. Sugar Ray Leonard is a great fighter also, showed a lot of heart as a...

    Do you carry your e-bikes in the trunk of your truck? (Pictures if possible)

    I tie them in upright, inside the bed, just like a motorcycle, using tie down straps.

    So what's your other hobbies or interests?

    No, no Ali. Although he was a talented fighter for his time and was a gritty as fighters can be, and a great self promoter, I think he was a bit overrated. Almost the image of Ali is greater than he was as a fighter, and the years taken away from his career with his legal battles would...

    Electric Car thread

    A bit off topic, but as a lifelong M/C guy, this is interesting to me. A bit more adrenaline than my e bike, but not at a stupid 20k plus price tag. I'll be watching if it really happens and how it plays out...

    So what's your other hobbies or interests?

    My favorite boxer list, hard to choose, I've been a fan of boxing forever I guess, but the fighters that come to mind for me in no particular order are: 1) Roberto Duran 2) Marvin Hagler 3) Tommy Hearns wicked puncher, one of those skinny guys that had that weird leverage that gave him crazy...

Yes, I used to go to Commerce and Lynnwood to do with work years back, had to careful even 30 years ago.

    Nice. Question, is there much difference in insurance premiums, either more or less $, compared to an ICE type commuter car?

    Cannabis, how is it legalized?

    Getting punched in the belly is better than the "wooden shampoo" the LAPD was fond of in the early '60s in Los Angeles.

    Cannabis, how is it legalized?

    I remember in the early 70's the anti drug propaganda films they showed to us as a early teenager. Just ridiculous, they implied that if you used pot you'd hallucinate and touch the flame of a gas burner, because you thought the flame was a flower. I still remember that and even then I knew it...

    Cannabis, how is it legalized?

    I've been a vegetarian for more than 30 years now, just finished a mozzarella, tomato, and onion sandwich on whole wheat, 1/2 cup of homemade bean soup and an apple. I'm not a fanatic about though, if I were out and served me meat of some kind I'd just take a few nibbles and not make a fuss. I...

    Cannabis, how is it legalized?

    I don't smoke, but pot should be treated like alcohol, regulated and taxed, but not taxed to the point that it creates a black market, like is being addressed in Calif. now I read recently. I actually think most drugs should be legalized along with prostitution, criminalizing a behavior won't...

    Looking For A High-Visibility Bicycle Helmet Recommendation

    I think whether it's falling off a horse, bicycle, or even a MC, it's pretty hard to predict how and what part is going to take an impact. Obviously, any helmet is better than nothing. Find a comfy one and wear it.

    Warm Weather Water Bottle Hack

    Or freeze the bottles of h20, in the SoCal sun here in the summer, it melts just fast enough to keep me hydrated and slowly enough that it stays cold down to the last drop.

    Earbuds and wind noise

    Not true in my experience. Under my helmet I still hear plenty good, they just block out the persistent whine of the wind noise that will damage a persons hearing. At petrol stops I can carry on a conversation with ear plugs in and my helmet on. After 40 plus years on motorcycles I would have...

    Earbuds and wind noise

    If the goal is to block wind noise, these work great. I use them for riding my motorcycle under my helmet. Cheap, reusable for awhile, then toss for a new pair. Very comfortable and will fit most all ear canals. I can still hear with them in, but they block the damaging noise. I've been...

    Not to mention electric vehicles are almost maintenance free I would think.

    Electric Car thread

    Thanks for the clarification. For my style of driving and needed range it wouldn't be much of an issue, but fast charging would always be a good thing if the need were to arise. I didn't know that the commercial charging stations pushed DC out directly to the battery.
