    Yes Ken, I've heard of PETA. It stands for people eating tasty animals, doesn't it? Go Team EBR! Allen

    Down boy; I'm pedaling as fast as I can, but give me a break; I'm an old man. Besides commuting to work and back on my eBike today, I just went out and did an end-to-ender on Dugway Road for another four miles. But trust me Ken, I'm doing what I can for Team EBR, but there is no way I'll hit the...

    It's funny that you should say that Ken. I had to create a folder in my email client—called Bad Maggie—to hold her email missives (mostly concerning our 22-year-old train wreck (I mean Son). She emailed me the other day and I had to create a new folder: Good Maggie. I still love her of course...

    Nice of you to say so Ken. My former wife said I have a bald spot (maybe that's why she threw me out like yesterday's mashed potatoes; hmmm…). About to ride home from work before the rain moves in (I hope). Go Team EBR! Allen

    Well you asked for it Ken. Not only am I as old as dirt, but Reddy Kilowatt is way more handsome! But I got my new bow-tie ready for the 4th of July, so here you all are. Allen

    Much improved Ken. I didn't want to say anything but you looked like a quadcopter before. I hope my fellow team members are enjoying a day's fine weather, as I am here in Connecticut. Just logged my ten-mile commute in at the NBC and when I get back from tonight's meeting I'll be adding...

    Wowzer Grench: You sure are making up for your bike's downtime last week. We had three rainstorms here in the quiet corner of Connecticut today, so I commuted to work by car. Just to get a few miles in, I rode up and down my road tonight. The Appalachian Trail has been rerouted by my...

    Anyone here joined the National Bike Challenge?

    Yeah, same here in Northwest Connecticut. I have power but no internets. (I'm posting through my cellular iPad's personal hotspot.) We had a gully washer at midday. As soon as I advise Comcast that I got no internets, I'm going to take a four-mile spin up and down my road, so I can log some...

    I've driven the Blue Ridge Parkway once before and it is incredible. I plan to go back there late this Summer or in early Fall. I've never visited Asheville except to fill my gas tank. At your suggestion I will have to explore it a bit when I vacation down there. Although Virginia has part of...

    Hi PowerMe: Well at least you guys have the Blue Ridge Parkway. That said, I think if I was in Cary, NC, I'd be sweating like a stuck pig. What I really hate are the nights that don't go below 75º F. (I'm not a fan of sleeping on top of the sheets.) On the other hand, my former wife and I...

    I vote you keep No. 12; you earned it man. Go Team EBR and welcome back Ken. Allen

    DWEBiker: Feel better man. Lyme Disease sucks. What's even nastier about it is that—unlike my COPD from smoking cigs—you didn't even do anything to cause it to happen to yourself. And Ken, I'm so sorry to hear it felled your Mom. I know a few people who've been afflicted with Lyme, but it's...

    Bike maintenance stand

    I agree with J.R. I bought the Park PCS-10. It wasn't cheap, but it is very solid. Our eBikes are heavier than conventional whips and a good stand makes doing maintenance chores, cleaning, and lubing almost a treat. I also use the handlebar holder he suggested and bought the paper towel holder...

    Hey Team: Well, regrettably I weenied out after work yesterday, since it was kinda' raining. So I skipped the grocery run and rode straight home. So it was just a twelve-mile-day. Right now it's pouring so I'm taking a ride in to church from a fellow usher who also happens to be my neighbor. (I...

    Welcome back Grench! We're short-staffed here at work today, so I had to run out and get my own sandwich at lunchtime. It's all good as that will add two more miles to my ten-mile commute when I log in at home later this afternoon. Wowzer! I just remembered I put my grocery panniers on for a...

    Welcome back Grench. Team EBR has missed you (and your miles). Allen

    Dude, don't get me wrong. I never, ever tell off girls. Not no way, not no how. Since I grew up with three sisters, then raised three daughters, I know; girls rule and boys drool. Neither me nor my son would have made it to puberty if we'd been in the habit of leaving the seat up. Just sayin'...

    PowerMe, what am I, chopped liver? There may be snow on the roof, but there's still a fire in the wood stove! Consider my new—admittedly self-bestowed—title, before you trifle with me. I used to just be an Apple-Certified Macintosh Technician. I'll have you know that now I am the Senior Vice...
