Kerry Is Too Beautiful! It looked like a short 32 km trip from Kenmare to Killarney. In fact, it was a slow montane ride mostly in 2nd gear among amazing surroundings! I met this couple from France at our guesthouse. Both were riding Specialized Diverge gravel bikes on a multi-day...

The Most Scary Car Ride In My Life! Bantry to Kenmare via Priest's Leap Pass Driving from Kenmare Kerry to Bantry Cork Ireland was exciting and picturesque but no difficulty in that. The route is on the Wild Atlantic Way, which is a car trail along the whole west coast of Ireland with...

I think so. In the most delicate way. Starting with: 'I cannot help noticing you are pedalling rather slowly. What the reason could be?' i have managed to convert several friends to faster pedalling. Nobody told them before!

I can see the host doing most work himself. You are not earning much on five rooms rented or eight guests a night in the high season.

On the other hand, I wouldn't like to maintain and clean that house. It is from another epoch. Must be a lot of hard work for the host.

Sittin' on the dock of the bay Watchin' the tide roll away 💚 We circumnavigated the Bay of Dingle on Saturday and landed on Valentia Island, which is one of the "ends of the world". We live in Reenglass House, presumably built in 1756. The host Kieran is a charming person! We have a...

We've hired a Dacia Sandero, a Romanian car, the brand owned by Renault. A nice simple car with only a small bunch of modern features. I love that car and think I could buy one myself! Not sure if I said it before but I plan our routes in RideWithGPS (car activity) and navigate with my Wahoo...

Kerry Holiday Day 2: Slea Head Drive There is a touristy ring route from Dingle around West Kerry. It includes Brandon Mountain, Brandon Creek, Ballyferitter Village, Blasket Islands view, Slea Head and many more. Irish roads are all made of perfect quality asphalt but are very narrow, winding...

In my case, a Range Extender is good for some 15 miles.

I don't think it is possible. The current Euro S-Pedelec is Vado S IGH. Specialized uses a whole kit: fenders , rear rack (including the tail-light and the number support plate you need), handlebar remote, a type rated display, Supernova headlight and the horn button. The kit only works with the...

Try riding in a lower gear at a lower assistance? Your SL 2 has Microtune. You can set the assistance in 10% decrements as you ride to fall back to the speed of the group. Seriously!

Kerry Holiday Day 1: Dingle Peninsula (North) A view from Fahamore near Castlegregory. Later on the day, I took my first swim in the Atlantic Ocean ever! A view onto the Conor Pass from the above. A hidden mountain lake above the Conor Pass Waterfall. @Brix climbed a rocky hiking trail...

@Brix and I send you greetings from the amazing Co. Kerry in Ireland. We are at approximately 10 degree W. It is our Day 0, and more is to come! (This photo was taken by our B&B in Castlemaine, 14 km from Kerry Airport).

You are right, Charlie. Torque figure alone is of no meaning. You also need to know the rpm.

Especially for @Chargeride :) or

The colourful display with the ribbon is only available on some flat handlebar Specialized e-bikes such as the full power Vado or Tero or Como.

There are closed captions available 😊

And no helmet :D

Well, I'm doing well with my mechanical Deore XT with no gear indicator. Electronic drivetrains (AXS, Di2) can report the current gear and even the gear ratio to a smartphone or a cycling computer. I have a Di2 XTR on my Vado SL. The knowledge of the current gear is yet another distraction...

Thank you Stomp!
