I don't blame you, it's a classic, I don't typically get jealous but I am a little at the moment. Keep up those oil changes ;)

I ran my own garden maintenance business for 25 years and the Honda self-propelled was the only mower we contractors would touch for city street work. Shindaiwa brush cutters and Stihl blowers and hedge trimmers. The Stihl stuff is ok... But it's made all over the world now and a bit of a...

How long does a bicycle last? We know the answer, a hell of a lot longer than a toaster or a mobile phone, and corporations stay alive today by growing and making lots of sales. Call me cynical but this 32" is probably just a concept designed to sell a whole new fleet of bicycles to replace...

Some one can't get the exact meal they want at panda express so panda express HATES them. Dear oh Dear, what an entitled lot we have become.

Well that's just normal human behavior, most boys drive things into the ground, I did. It's a part of the same psychology that governments employ when they want cannon fodder to attack other nations for their oil or whatever. They know the young men are high risk takers and sign them up at 18...

I wouldn't use ethanol fuel to start a fire. There is plenty of good fuel out there, let the beta testers buy ethanol and put it in their cars. The whole thing is a myth really and wouldn't exist if it wasn't for all the federal subsidies. There are plenty of papers out there on the fossil...

Well that's good to know! When you've saved the planet for yourself and all the children come back and let me know, I'll donate something to the World Wildlife Fund.

It's just a hobby, like amateur radio. I go out once a fortnight or so at 1am for a stealth run through the rural backroads. Takes me back to when I was a young teenager exploring at night. Man You could only dream of a self propelled bicycle back then, I would have been out every night and...

Oh for the days of sticking a hub or BBS on a hardtail pushbike 😄

I found riding very regularly is the secret to curing sit bone soreness. Like at least once a week and more if possible. All my pushbike seats are the harder variants but I put a plush one on the ebike because I never really pedal it so more weight is constantly on them.

Thankfully we lived close to the school and my mother walked me there the first day then I went with my older brother and sisters. Reading some of the posts above makes me glad I got to walk, I broke enough bones on my own just doing stupid things.

Well I for one am not young anymore and trowing my leg over the 29er is quite enough, as is falling from it lol. 32"? Not for me, and I really can't see the point unless it's for smoothing out the rough roads we ride now, and then it best be coupled with full suspension too. Note: I didn't...

Yeah, well I'm happy with both, and I'm certainly not going to deplete my bank account and bend myself into a pretzel just because some politicians and multi-billionaires are laying a guilt trip on the middle-class over burning gasoline. It's all hypocrisy and green washing to me anyway. Who...

That's insane!!! Who would pay that when like you say premium is available?

Inverters are the best, and the hi end ones with smart throttles are very efficient. When people talk to me about buying a generator I ask them how long to they want it to last. They give me that funny look you know. "What do you mean?" Well, I say, do you want it to play up in 6 months and...

Actually I just shook my head 😄 I though it was going to be a vid exposing the lunacy but it was just another emoto fanboi telling all his mates how cool they are, just another brainless videographer promoting his youtube channel.

The scenic rim, Inland from the GC about 100 clicks. South of the town called Boonah on this map. Have you spent some time down here PedalUma?

I guess it makes sense for people who naturally wouldn't care for mechanical things, the sort of people who wouldn't think to check tire pressures etc. I know a few like that, and one guy works on an oil rig!

This was a classic, Safe for kids! But actually no, some pretty radioactive rocks in there lol
