My local REI in Virginia Beach learned it's lesson with a TERN long tail that sat for eternity. Nearest dealer that usually carries one is near Washington DC. I don't mind the drive as long as I add some other stops along the way.

So my wife is a vegetarian and when we went to Panda Express she would get a Cub meal with white rice and spring rolls. Panda Express recently changed the Cub meal so you can no longer get the spring rolls. So my wife thinks "I can just get a small white rice and spring rolls!" but no, the...

usclassic, we (mostly I) want a FULL honest review of this ebike after some miles. I considered one of those NEO's but no dealer even bothers to carry one in my area. I have a "No test ride/no buy" policy after buying a ebike based on a review and found it to be a slow unresponsive turd. It's...

I've been a wimp all week and actually driving to work! No one at work could believe I actually own a car. We had the word "snow" mentioned in the weather and now we have tons of brine and salt on all the roads. Other than it being cold I don't feel like washing my scooter from all the ice...

My state can't control the speed limits set for cars. I'm doing 65mph in a 55 zone and I'm getting past like I'm sitting still. You really think someone will actually check bikes? I don't. Someone mentioned that most of these ebike rules are cash grabs, and I think for the most part they are...

I just had a heart attack moment! It's been a few years since I used my Milwaukee heated gloves. I pulled them out and took them into work for the ride home after work. The batteries charged correctly and are holding their charge but I couldn't get the gloves to power on! My thumbs started...

I think that most of the trust in the Rad name has eroded. The new owner might just rebrand the product for future sales. I did read that Retrospec was one of the bidders. They have nice products and a good dealer network already setup. That would have been interesting.

We south eastern Virginians dodged the brunt of the storm. We got dusted with snow last night, this morning its raining BUT its supposed to drop into the low 20's tonight. If its nasty Monday with ice I'll just call in for work. Best thing out of this is my wife cooked in case we got trapped in...

Check out Oddessy Twisted PC pedals. BMX riders hate shin bites as much as anyone. The Twisted PC pedals are much friendlier to your shins, are very high quality and come in colors should you want something different.

In my state, Virginia, DMV can't even keep up with illegal cars! No insurance, expired state inspections and even way expired tags? Virginia will welcome you on our roads! This started because some politician telling the police they can't pull a car for a expired plate tag or outdated state...

Interesting BUT I think it's just another distraction/deflection from what he's not doing. I'll see it to believe it.

Those beach front mansions will get swept away by the ocean during the next big hurricane. Then the property owners will cry to the state for assistance to rebuild.

I must get at least 2 phone calls a day from people asking if I'm interested in selling my home. I'm a few years from it being paid off, have no children to inherit such a mansion and no one I like enough to will it to. So on to the phone calls. I have this guy call and he says he's trying to...

My wife still has her Electra Ed Roth Rat Rod chopper bicycle. It's basically a fancy Townie with a Nexus 3 speed. I took it to the store yesterday and I found myself wondering why the PAS wasn't kicking in! I doesn't have a motor! Once I remembered what I was on I actually enjoyed riding it...

Since discovering and appreciating Steely Dan I decided to order some of their CD's. I stumbled across Merchbar online and decided to order 5 CD's back in September. All CD's showed in-stock, yet to this day my email invoice shows "Processing". It was later discovered that this site is run by a...

The Swing King Elite beach cruiser and the JackRabbit OG both went to the local CHKD thrift store. I hope the Swing King finds a good home, I could care less about the JackRabbit. That JackRabbit was the worst quality ebike I've ever seen and had to deal with. Still debating the right home for...

I have a single speed RadRunner 2. It works great for what I purchased it for, general local use. I keep the PAS on 2 because anything over that I'll just ghost pedal. I can get some exercise in PAS 2 as well. I don't have the screen so I have no idea how fast I'm going in PAS 2 but I suspect...

I love the Berm Peak videos. This scam is just insane and I'm glad it being pursued and hopefully punished. Seth said "Chomos", something I never thought I'd ever hear him say!

Still on the hunt. So far..... Momentum Cito +. Would love to see one in person but no local dealer. Not a fan of the motion first throttle. Trek Fetch is a pass because of the weird passenger weight distribution. I was willing to forgo the "T" word. Xtracycle Hopper is nice but on the slower...

Finding the bikes a home got even better. This purge is part of getting a "One and done." ebike. So how did it get better? We put my wife's little pick-up in the shop right before the holidays. Got it back and haven't been able to drive it. It has a horrible oil leak now! The shop is closed till...
