    Anybody else oil a chainsaw manually?

    The trick is to lay the saw on its side so the gravity flow doesn't occur. In answer to your question, no to bottle oiling. I had an old (50 years ago) Craftsman beast that had a manual thumb pump for oiling.

    The transition

    We're actually driving our van, 4.99 for diesel. I've read it's much more on the left coast. Hopefully higher prices keep people off the highway. In our old age we prefer less traffic.

    Heavy Rider, need suggestions

    My 2020 Gazelle C380 step through didn't appear to mind me at around 310; I'm sure it's happier with me at 260. The bike shop didn't flinch at my weight when I bought it. I also don't ride it hard like I did bikes 50 years ago.

    Just for fun...

    I was originally limited to 120 (in my mid-30s) and couldn't do what I wanted. I asked for more "horsepower"; they upped me to 130 and I have been fine since.

    Curious, does anyone in the Heartland have issues with the law/regulation thing? Is this a east/west concern? Around here, I see nothing in the news or publicized in any way on e-bike issues; we just ride like sane people and don't call attention to ourselves. I don't think I've even seen a...
