I've had good luck with the CB speedier tire lever- at least saving knuckles and being sturdy enough not to break. Also super quick to get the tire up off the rim when removing the tire. https://www.crankbrothers.com/products/speedier-lever

No, he doesn't date his stuff. I'm guessing "Miller" did the underlying mural for Barking Dog Alehouse. Then at some point henry updated it with the salon dogs, sun, fish, and tentacles. The dogs are drinking Rainier beer

I can't speak to California's WARN laws, but WA's version just took effect this past July and is for closures/layoffs >50. It looks like notifying employees is also a requirement in addition to notifying the state and the city. I don't think the letter to employees is public record, but such...

It is a legal requirement here. The letter to employees was open, but bear in mind that it was crafted knowing that the legally required WARN notice is a matter of public record here and would be in the news by the end if the weekend.

I'll have to bike back by this one in the daylight sometime. The building has a salon and a dog friendly alehouse. The mural is confusing though. I think it is henry added over an existing mural?

Hope you feel better soon! You don't need long rides to make your goal, but regular/daily shorter rides can add up quick.

Drove to work yesterday and spotted this one on the skinny end of this dive bar. Biked by on the sidewalk this morning and saw the squatch on the wide end of Woody's.

The search index is broken. Nothing after August 23rd shows up for anybody in "your content" The fact that stuff stays broken for weeks/months at a time should tell you that the mods aren't scouring posts 24/7 so they can frantically delete reviews of POS Amazon ebikes.

Also, if you have a System 2 bike that connects to eBike Connect you can go into your bike's details and see the part # and sn#'s of the drive unit, battery(ies), and head unit. I assume the Flow app also has this for Smart System bikes. The part# can be googled to match up to which drive...

It is but it looks like REI has upped the prices a lot - $1139 for a 500wh powertube(Before 20% coupon)! The times we live in ... got the same thing for $400 last year from REI. Ebikes508 and a few other small shops seem to still be selling powertubes at the old pre-tariff retail price at least.

Are you supposed to sop up the bean sauce with that yellow-white hockey puck? No potatoes rules out about 90% of North America and the only correct way to have beans for breakfast is in a breakfast burrito.

The Geekwire article has a little more detail, including the letter to employees and a list of the various heavyweights who've invested in them over the years. https://www.geekwire.com/2025/rad-power-bikes-faces-possible-shutdown-as-it-tries-to-survive-significant-financial-challenges/

Yeah, we had a crossing like that. The city had to replace the crocs and fill in the pits with loose gravel due to budget cuts.

Don't mind him, he's British. Probably some obscure Dickens reference...

I've posted this one before, but this morning was a rare chance to catch this wall at least partially sunlit. Usually I'm going 25mph and trying not to get run over by the cars in the lane next to me through here, but Saturday AM traffic was non existent.

Friday night squatch. Darrell's is a pretty well known dive bar. A lot of local punk bands play there and they also support the local surf rock scene by hosting a annual surf music festival, Surf x SurfWest.

Nah, just get another stainless mug. Label the first one INPUT and the second one OUTPUT.

That Flying V is a nice looking bike and looks ready to go for full urban commuting. But, I don't think the combination of the Nexus 5 and Sprint(class 3) drive unit makes much sense. They've geared it so a cadence of 85 gets you to the EU 25kmh cutoff. You would have to pedal at a cadence...

Thanks NV The squatches are scattered all over, but the ones I've posted so far are almost all in the same NW quadrant of Seattle and the adjoining burbs to the north. They are also far more likely to be found in certain neighborhoods - not too nice, never on redeveloped plots, never on water...
