In the UK they are even more extreme! They have these teams of radical dudes going around with cordless grinders cutting down all the steel poles that have the traffic cameras mounted on them, even ones with traffic lights up there too. Blade runners they call them. Cameras to send you a fine...

" Preferred design"? I've never heard of such a design unless you are talking about a generator backup for powerWall type installs, which are useless after two days of overcast. I know a few people who have installed generators in their home in case of blackout, some with auto-start features...

I do that sometimes, or place it in a pair of bicycle floor stands. And before someone says "But you can't turn the wheels you can't turn the wheels!" Yes, obviously, this is for other maintenance and construction work, setting a seat level, working on a motor etc etc. The problem with all...

I think you might pause and to go back to page one of this discussion to get it in perspective. Op started it saying the product was garbage, then the conversation drifted and turned into a squabble. This is a bicycle forum, not a seminar on heart surgeries, things wander. I brought in the...

Are you posting from a phone PCe? Your images are HUGE and take forever to mouse past.

They started to put screens with ads on petrol pumps down here but we started to blow our noses on them, it became a real meme, everyone was spitting or blowing their nose on them and soon they pulled them all.

I'd post but it would be a bit gross. Where I ride the most notable things are the dead bodies of animals along the roads. Foxes, yes foxes, run over! Hares, kangaroos, possums, snakes. It's like every animal in Australia has a death-wish now. The roads when a mouse plague comes through are...

That's why I keep a logbook of my cycle rides, so I know what day it is.

And struggle using it in the rain, like the posts above suggest? I wasn't suggesting anyone needs to ditch their IPX7 to move outside the box, my point was covering the screen in a plastic bag will prevent the issue, that was the takeaway. I prefer the Big Garmin on the Adventure bike because...

That looks more practical than mine! With 2 legs I could get it up close to the wall. I wouldn't care how heavy it was either, I'd use a fridge trolley if needed. One thing though I find the clamp a bit wanting, on all of them! There are so many different styles of top tube now and some of...

Oh, my mistake, I thought you were towing the trailer behind you. Good luck with the mods :)

Based on what evidence? When demographers and researchers (such as the Pew Research Center) date the start of Generation X to 1965, they primarily cite demographic data and fertility patterns, not cultural shifts. But the only way to explain the generation Gap is with cultural shifts, like the...

Boomers will often gather in large groups, BBQ together, build the fence together. GenXers typically have just one or two close friends and do most things themselves, alone. They rely on themselves and have a general distrust for authority. Which describes you?

No. That's what many now claim but Strauss and Howe, who wrote the book on generations, pegged it as 61. But I know this from simple observation, every baby boomer basically has the "They should do this they should do that" mindset, they trust the system to work it out, especially relating to...

Just this. I have enough digital technology in my life as it is, probably too much! I like a bit of simplicity from time to time.

electronic drivetrain electronic drivetrain. Another silly marketing term. The pedals and cranks and bottom bracket, along with the chain and sprockets are the lion's share of the 'drivetrain' and they are not electronic. They invent all this great technology and then use ridiculous...

No they are not, they are designed for 250W 😄

I have a large Garmin RV775 on my ADV bike, it's not waterproof but it's the best there is with a BIG screen and Hema Rasta map package. When it looks like rain I slip a plastic sandwich bag over it and that keeps it dry but also allows me to use the functions. Ya gotta think outside the box...

Are you a GenXer, born 1961 and onwards? That generation is the do it yourselfer generation, the latch-key kids that were raised unprotected and left to explore the world as they would. The stuff I got up to in my youth raises the hair on most millennials heads but to us back then it was just...
