    Vacation planning with E-Bikes

    I went on a wonderful guided ebike tour of Puglia, Italy, a year ago - am looking at some bike and barge tours in Northern Italy and the Netherlands for next fall 😁.

    Best Rock Ever? Nominations, No Air Supply!

    Firefox confirms, via several sources, that the second verse is about Warren Beatty, but the other verses are about other men. Mick Jagger suspected in verse 1... Some articles claim it's the biggest mystery in rock music, but I think that title would go to whatever was being thrown off the...

    Best Rock Ever? Nominations, No Air Supply!

    I love them both, but have to say King, just because she wrote for so many other musicians. I can't think of many songs Carly wrote that were recorded by anyone but her ... For the voice, absolutely Carly Simon! This coming from someone who thinks John Prine's voice is great 🤣!

    To say nothing of those who don't seem to understand when a little joke had been made, and make it into another opportunity for further EV (and EV owner) bashing 😁.

    I will say that choosing a likely EV has been a heck of a lot easier than choosing either of my ebikes 🤣! Oh, how I agonized over both my La Free and Flow! They're very different from each other, and I love them both... Maybe those two experiences have influenced the decision-making for the Kona...

    Are you talking about the battery? The similar battery in my 2010 Prius was warranted for 10 years, and it's still doing its job, almost 14 years later. Also, the price of replacing that battery has dropped dramatically from what it was when I bought the car. Approximately $2500 every 15 years...

    90+% of my charging will be done at home 😁. 90+% of my driving is well within the range of the battery.

    I put my phantom Kona in Plugshare - whenever we're driving somewhere I check it out to see what my charging opportunities would/will look like away from home.

    I would really like a 24 - it's a bit larger so more rear passenger space for the grandkids, and it has a few other upgrades that I like...
