    Just for fun...

    Only a matter of time before they figure out how to make them into e-scooters.

    Make do with what you have

    The wife fills the bathtub every time severe weather is predicted in case we loose power. We now have a standby generator that will power the well pump, but she still fills the tub anyway. :rolleyes: Before we got the generator, when we lost power, we used to bring our solar walkway lights...

    Saddle height: The deciding factor?

    One of my last conventional bikes, a Diamondback Sorrento, had the crank considerably forward of the vertical and at some point it began to bother my back. I switched to a Trek Shift 4 with a more vertical alignment and found it much more comfortable. Could be different with an e-bike though...

    Saddle height: The deciding factor?

    When it comes to saddles, posts and their adjustments, everyone has different requirements for a "comfortable" ride. From personal experience, I've found age has a lot to do with this. In my younger years, I would adjust the seat height so my leg was absolutely straight on the downstroke. This...

    I think it would depend on the LEO. IMO, a throttle is easier to spot than a 1000W motor.

    raising handlebar stem

    I use this 4.6" stem riser from Delta on all 3 of my bikes: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007WEQIT4?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_13 It fits bikes with 1 1/8" (28.6mm) stems. Don't know if it will fit Juiced bikes, but you can always return it.

    Amazon Stops Selling Illegal eMotos in CA

    Once or twice, a ranger commented on it but I was never asked to leave. There are some trails I ride where enforcement is strict with a fine involved. I don't take a chance at those locations.

    Amazon Stops Selling Illegal eMotos in CA

    While I do prefer a twist throttle, I had to switch to a thumb model. I need to be able to remove it quickly and easily when I ride on class 1 only trails. I replaced the hex head mounting screw with a thumb screw so it can be removed & replaced in seconds. Yes, I could do the same with...

    Can't tell what you ate, but I detect a definite trace of vado smoke. 😁

    The index was 415 here yesterday but a bit better this morning. It's supposed to exceed 500 tonight & tomorrow morning. Should improve over the weekend though. The NWS just issued a code purple (highest) alert for our area: Air Quality Alert PAZ038>040-043-044-047-048-072-171615-...

    I just finished mowing a 7 acre pasture and noticed the cabin air flow was almost non existent. I checked the cab air filter and It was totally clogged with brownish gray dust! I had replaced it less than a month ago. The visibility here now is less than a quarter mile due to the yellow haze...

    So many unanswered questions, like why are panties plural while brassiere is singular? While you're at it, why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway? When I worked for the old Bell System back in the 1970's, there was actually a lawsuit filed to change "manhole" to "person hole" It...

    Here in the northeast, between the heat, humidity and now the wildfire smoke, I haven't put many miles on the bike this season. I see a few out there wearing masks for the smoke, but I'm not sure how effective they are. Got to be cautious at my age. How are others here doing?

    I finally took my ebike for a test ride.

    I would probably use the frame bag idea, but there is no place to put one on my step thru frame.
