    Lady cyclist killed in Davis involving juvenile on ebike...on the bike path.

    Im confused given Germanys strict laws and attitudes that Surronster gets to open a flash showroom, then promote it with the biggest ride out the kids have seen, rides through a national park into a castle, nearly wipes out pedestrians. And I cant find any backlash. The bike he was riding was...

    Lady cyclist killed in Davis involving juvenile on ebike...on the bike path.

    Its heartbreaking, but also his mode of transport is actually irrelevent in the big picture.

He didnt start his day with the intent to end her life, his...

    32" Wheels? Interesting...

    It is very odd, we seek out hard terrain and then spend thousands making it easier to ride. I would prefer 27.5, but as Seth says they are a niche product now.

    The transition

    It started with Minstrels and Bards. Making a living singing and inventing the news for coins. Exactly the same except today they want your entire life instead of money.

    The transition

    6% of our electricity, I presume thats all types of data centres, but it was only 2.5% last year. Sam claims its energy well spent, the absolutist in me would agree if I remove respect for humanity as we know it. I had a conversation with my banking app today about google pay. I asked me to...
