It is schizoid whiplash. Markets like a steady hand not a mad man at the helm. I wouldn't want him flying a plane or even driving a bus.

White Plains with 12 inches and 40 mph winds! In 1971 we had 6 inches of snow on Easter in Poughquag, NY. The daffodils suffered. On the upside we got double chocolat! My mom got all the stuff, peeps, beans, and bunnies, before going to Scotland and my dad didn't know, so he got even more. The...

Add some Stan's after about 9 mos. to keep it fresh. Tubes and tires are air permeable, at a molecular level, like a screen door. I use a needle nose vice grip to secure the valve against the rim. And cardboard under the insertion. I Q-tip the valve stem twice and add the silicone in the stem...

A bunch of kids have the junk hub-drive moped style bikes. They are always getting flats. 80% of the time it is the rear because the front kicks up the debris and makes a pass to the back. The local eBike store charges $40 labor plus the tube at $15. I just did one in nine minutes by using...

I needed a new frame pump. This one is compact and versatile and also works on tires, both Presta and Schrader. It is also fully serviceable.

That is the kind of way I am thinking. Kinetic regen. Instead of heating brakes store that energy. I was thinking along the lines of pneumatically inside the frame. Just as long as your frame doesn't explode in a crash.

Thank you. Yes, stranded. The film has something to do with running. He liked urban scenes like alleyways and indoors and did not like views or nature. Meaning he is trapped internally too. So, he won't be renting a boat and a bike or fly a kite in the wildflowers.

I am willing to break out of ruts to make original content. What does it feel like to be stuck in a rut? I extend myself and take some creative risks. I say things new, fresh, out of the box. It extends some vulnerability, yet not AI, personality, authenticity, and depth. A real person in a real...

When a bike is going to Burning Man I pack the derailleur. And I apply DOT 5 mixed with soap and vinegar to almost everything but braking surfaces. That fine grit dust is highly corrosive with salty alkalinity and corrosive microbes. It will wreck a bike in just a few days. It is like tossing a...

I would just pack it with grease to keep out water and dirt. Then replace the grease every so often.

There is a type of mid-drive that feels like a cadence sensor hub-drive. Normally on a mid pedaling speed is the same as chainring speed but not so on BBS02 and HD motors. You can ghost pedal them. At a cadence of 8 rpm you can go 30 mph. There is a total disconnect from the feel of riding a...

I read a book in the fading sun with my toes out for an hour. The crows are going NW and the Gulls SE, normally they side together, thusly, we are in for weird weather. What is that book about? It takes place at at about 1152 BCE. It is all or mostly feminine emotions and internal dialogs. Troy...

Is it made from gluten free sawdust? That is a pool of butter inside the pastry. Then I would dip it into a mocha with cinnamon and kosher salt on the rim. No more fresh sourdough to dip in my French mushroom/herb soup with brae melted into it. I am being punished for my indulgences. I am...

I can no longer eat pastries, pasta, or pizza. I will need to give an explanation to the Sicilian grandmother who makes the best NY style pies. I saw her coming out of a store yesterday and her expression said, 'Where did you go.' I have become gluten intolerant. My limbs become numb, I want to...

San Jose Weather Sucks! That is so bad. Do you know the way to San Jose? It never goes above 82 or below 60 F. Did anyone know that Karen Carpenter played drums?

In my opinion the suspension post takes priority on this bike and use application.

@usclassic, Check your display. It could be the Bosch type that is supper easy to remove. That is a security measure. You park and pocket the display. A local woman had her bike frame sawed through with the lock left behind just so they could get at the motor and battery. I hope Bosh catches...

I make omelettes. Fluffy, al dente, fast and full blast, with just a little caramelization of the butter. My friend Fritz from Germany likes slow cooked, low heat eggs that are mushy, chopped, damp, and undercooked slime.

For me it was in the North Island's central valley with Chinese food. I was spoiled living in the LA area with huge Asian populations and their version was like grey over boiled canned peas. The mountains to the north are topped with snow. It is about 60 miles away and I got to see it. That is...
