I went for a hike today at Spooner Lake State Park (NV), about Noon. On the North side of the lake, near the trail that heads North to Marlette Lake, I saw a group doing a professional photo shoot. The subject was a young guy on an ebike. Being curious, I walked over, and when they took a break...

I may make a trip to Italy next year, and was looking online for ebike rentals. I only found a few sites that listed pricing, but it seems very high. Looking at various online sources, it seems that I can rent a car for as little as 15-20 euros per day, while an ebike is at least 2-3 times as...

Like the lady who was texting while driving in town. She continued to text at the stop light. I had to get her to back up, so I could cross (this was at a bike path crossing). She never stopped texting. Or the drivers that wait until you have the crossing light, then race to turn in front of...

Before I got my recumbent etrike a month ago, I had only seen two trikes locally. In the past two days, I've doubled that. Yesterday, as I was returning from a long ride, I saw a trike with one of those clear fairings on the front (probably good for the cooler weather, lately). Today, while...

This guy has cycle toured for about 20 years, and has never owned a car. He recently bought an ebike. I like his choice. He has some good points about the advantages of an ebike, and talks about the "cheating" myth. Myself, between by ebikes and etrike, I have ridden about 1500 miles in the...

I started about three years ago with a decent Chinese ebike, just to see if I would like it. I hadn't ridden in over 40 years. Although I liked riding it, I learned a few things, and discovered a few drawbacks (which was the purpose of buying a $1200 ebike, instead of something more expensive)...

Everyone loves action cams, but I have some different uses that I thought I'd share. After some research, I bought an XTU Max action cam. It seems to be as good as the GoPro Hero 7 that I used to have, plus adding a few additional features. Although it works great as an action cam, I am using...

Does anyone know of a clipless SPD shoe that is good for short hikes, and has "zero drop", also known as "no heel rise"? In other words, the heel is no higher than the toe part of the shoe. I have been wearing minimalist, zero drop hiking shoes for several years. I would love to find something...

Here is the beginning of my build, using a Burley Nomad trailer. As others have noted, one drawback of the Nomad, depending on your use, is the nylon floor. The nylon walls should hold up well, but the floor may wear more quickly. I saw a YT video where someone used a single piece of 1/4 inch...

Although I have a Gocycle, which has a very thick handlebar, the two items I talk about should fit normal handlebars just fine. Pictures are attached. I searched on Amazon for hours, trying to find a suitable phone mount and mirror that would fit the very thick handlebar of the Gocycle GX. I...

I just ordered a GX yesterday. I expect it to ship today. I found a vendor who had the GX on sale (and in stock). Everyone else was asking full MSRP. I ordered a blue GX from here: https://www.gocyclemarine.com/product/gocycle-marine-gx/. I guess if you can afford a yacht, you can afford a...
