I do cocktail sauce on fries and can't do mayo sauce on fish. This morning I will get BBQ with handmade tortillas by an authentic grandmother at a farmer's market. It is called What A Chicken. Good food can be very simple.

I just saw some Bob Mortimer humor. It is so very British. I read everything, a new book a week, and just stumbled on this one. It came out in GB as a hardcover last year in is a new release in paperback here in the states. It is told by five or six narrators from their POV's and includes a...

I am reading a book with a character with that type of hair. Except he is a South London gangster and everyone is button lipped and hands off. The book is all inside Brit humor with baked beans, stake & kidney pies, chips, and tea. Now the action has moved to the top floor of a seaside hotel in...

For a Brose you need a special frame made to fit it. It cannot go on any bike. And if you have a frame for a Brose then it will only take a Brose. So I do not think you have any alternatives. The frame and installation have a large impact on sound. Some frames amplify the sound. I did a dumb...

At the start of the pandemic lockdown I purchased a barber's buzz and buzz every day after shaving. It is really easy and fast to maintain. I probably saved a ton too.

I am a penniless bike mechanic, who takes a mini-vacation each day instead of a big one once or twice per year. I guess it is about values, I value friends, independence, and good food. I got rid of my smart phone, do not own a TV, do not stream, and read new books each week. I am making a bike...

The one I just worked on had no brakes. Zero. It is call a Jetson and is a POShit, online only with no support. I feel like a dirty little whore for even touching it. At least a clown bike has a sense of humor, but it would cost more and be better made. The motor on that green bike is a DM02...

In a few minutes I will have the pleasure of working on one of these beauties.

I took this one and did this to it so it would blow the doors off that. I got the starter bike for essentially nothing as part of a settlement where I got 7 new bikes from a closing shop that owed me. Compare the geo to the Creo. When you have power there is no need to stoop to the wind. And who...

I would rather ride an analog bike than a 15.5343 limited bike. On the upside it does have nine reviews.

15.3.

Okay an eMTB such as the Levo is programed to be highly responsive, even jumpy. That is for doing things such as navigating a rock garden and jumping a log. In contrast a fat folder has lag and overrun so it might feel smoother to a typical person who is not really a cyclist but it really won't...

Get up Stand up Stand up for your bikes. It sort of depends on the bike. As mentioned, with a mid-drive torque sensor MTB standing up out of the saddle is common on rough spots and for jumping and climbing. If it is a fat folder hub-motor throttle bike with a cadence sensor, probably not. I am...

Welcome to the Hotel Avocado!

Yesterday I asked a couple of friends to meet me by a lake for tri-tip lunch. Those colorful teriyaki peppers were amazing. Can't see the squash but it is there, maybe in the middle, yellow. Mesquite smoke! We thinly sliced it across the grain on the toast and added horseradish along with the...

Petaluma is not an actual place in space, like Brigadoon it is a state of mind. And, I am not marriage eligible for you due to that I am straight.

Yes, all good systems relate speed, to torque, and cadence. Best ones allow users to fine adjust those inputs and many others, such as the degrees before kick-in, how that kick-in progresses, over-run milliseconds, and so on. Dumb ones come only with a few factory preset options, the user cannot...

@stompandgo, Did you look over that display manual for the T-154? You can switch between cadence and torque. If you were hiring Summer job attractive but not necessarily hardcore cyclist college students to do a pedicab on Nantucket for tourists, or make cargo deliveries across the island, you...
