    SHOW us YOUR PIX here .... Odd, WeiRd ,UnUSuAl or EyE CaTchIng things from your rides

    There used to be a shop (neigh, a stall 😁) in the Pike Place Market in Seattle back in the 70s that sold horsemeat. I bought it once or twice. Perfectly fine meat. Why one sentient being should be somehow more immoral to eat than another is quite subjective. Cows OK, but horses not?

    Does anyone suffer from battery range anxiety like people do with electric vehicles?

    I have never had much of a worry about range, because my knee dictates my range. I have found that 26 miles (a "marathon"), or an hour out, an hour back, is a good distance. I don't get wiped out, but after I stop riding, I feel that indeed, I have gotten a fair bit of exercise. My BH had a 605...

    Why should I care about Open Ai's boss?

    Oops! That's where I thought I had posted it! No wonder I couldn't find it later. OFF-topic is where I meant it to be. 👍

    It's cataract surgery time

    The $3750 lens will give you halos around taillights. It says so right in the chart. I wouldn't go for that.

    Why should I care about Open Ai's boss?

    The news has been full of the danger of AI to democracy, journalism and truth as (we think) we know it. Then there is a hoohah about some guy named Sam Altman. He's in, he's out, his employees are resigning, he's hired by Microsoft, he's back at the helm of OpenAi... Who cares? If AI is a...

    Have you had to get stronger glasses as time has gone by?

    It's cataract surgery time

    Right? That seems to be the question.

    It's cataract surgery time

    Yes, he said they can configure the lenses that way, but that is not how I imagine eyes and brains are supposed to work together.

    It's cataract surgery time

    Well, it is not lasik surgery where they are slicing and dicing your lens. They are cutting in just to slip out the bio lens and inserting the acrylic lens. He said the operation takes 7 minutes! Also, my eyes aren't going to get better. The cataract in my dominant eye is smack in the middle of...

    It's cataract surgery time

    Ok, so it is time for me to get my cataracts replaced with bionic lenses. I have a choice of getting the standard lenses (free, thanks to Medicare) or forking out money for fancier lenses. I have been nearsighted my whole life, with a strong astigmatism. I do not mind wearing glasses at all --...

    2024: What is on your bucket list?

    We had driven up to Hurricane Ridge one year and my husband and a 22 yr old decided to ride their accoustics back down. It was absolutely scary to follow them DOWN. They had fun though. I would hesitate to go down on an ebike because of how much faster ebikes descend due to their weight, and...

    Show us pictures of where you ride your ebikes!

    English ivy is such a scourge, because it grows happily in sun or shade. But you can stop that from happening. Get in there with loppers and remove the vines to a height of 6 ft or whatever you can reach. Clear away the ivy around the base of the tree. The vines above will die. Go on now: it'll...

    So you mean for this to hoist the ebike up for working on? Or putting onto a bike rack on the back of a car?
