My wife and I did Spring Lake Park to Hastings MN and then Prescott WI today. They also announced that they will finish the "missing link" through the Pine Bend Trail area...

A friend of mine posted something about these on Facebook today. They are still around. https://moonbikes.com

I removed the "belt-driven" part. My wife and I were at the Minnesota State Fair today. I kept my eyes open for e-bikes and the two brands I ran across today are Denago and Rambo. The Denago I saw stated it was a Hunting 1 model. Further, it stated it is a new mid-drive mountain bike designed...

I live in Minnesota on a gravel road. Once we get snow, the gravel road is dangerous for e-biking. However, I am not that far from asphalt. I am considering a fat tire e-bike for casual winter riding. What are some of my better choices?

That makes sense. I have also considered an additional front and rear light. For the daytime, I am considering a light with a different flash pattern in the daytime. Since I already have a Fenix, I suppose just about any non-Fenix brand would have a different flash pattern. The one that has...

I am still using my Troxel equestrian riding helmet on e-bike rides. I figured that it would buy me time until I determined what to buy. That was over a year ago! I have given some thought to buying a bike helmet with lights built in. Are they worthwhile or just a gimmick? My Gazelle has...

I am also an "odd man out" in that I don't use a traditional bicycle GPS will riding my e-bike. A couple of years ago I bought a Garmin Zumo XT, which is a motorcycle GPS, for my Can-Am ATV. When I bought my Gazelle e-bike last year I decided to get a mount for it, too. One of the challenges has...

My wife and I rode the Willard Munger Trail from Hinckley to just south of Willow River on Saturday. We had very pleasant weather and almost had the trail to ourselves. We found a great little place for lunch called Crazy Mary's Cafe. We will likely do a future trip from Willow River to...

Following.

A group of us went ATVing this past weekend out of Babbitt. We saw the Messabi Trail and may have to go up again to e-bike that. https://mesabitrail.com

I would have expected Celsius on the temperature display.

This is what was suggested: "Find a USCGS Classic Horizontal Control benchmark that has been surveyed to a high degree of precision using professional GPS surveying equipment. The accuracy is usually within .5 CM. You can usually find one one of these benchmarks fairly close to your location...

Poetry Parking Lot in Lanesboro MN. Also referred to as Co Hwy 21 Parking Lot. 110 Mill Pond Rd, Lanesboro, MN 55949...

My wife and I did the Root River State Trail today. We started from Lanesboro and rode to Rushford and back. It was a great ride and good part of the trail has shade from tree cover to keep it a bit cooler. https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/state_trails/root_river/index.html

The rear tire on my Gazelle Ultimate C380+ went flat this afternoon with 2774 miles on it. At first I thought that wasn't very many miles for a bicycle tire, but I don't think e-bike tires last as long as non-ebikes. For those with the Gazelle Ultimate C380+, how many miles did you get out of...

I have also been using a website for Minnesota Bikeways that is quite helpful for finding bicycle trails in Minnesota. Minnesota Bikeways https://mndot.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=23f7fa312f8044b4ac05a6bbd86f1ca4

I registered for My Route App (MRA) this evening and I am giving it a try. So far it does a nice job creating bicycle routes/tracks on bicycle trails. https://www.myrouteapp.com

Paul Bunyan State Trail, stretching 119 miles from Bemidji to Brainerd, is one of the longest rail-trails in the country, according to what I am seeing on-line. Has anybody on here ridden this trail? A group of us are nearby ATVing this weekend and I have seen a few signs in the area. My wife...
