    A bit warmer today, and gorgeous. 24C although the Garmin thinks it's 29C. Feels a little closer to the latter TBH. The shade is welcome... Equestrian with a smile... This Amtrak train goes from downtown Vancouver to Seattle, and beyond to LA and San Diego... Water stop... Heading...

    Got a flat tire?

    Blackberry thorns up here are plentiful to say the least. Regular Stans did it for me.

    Yamaha CrossCore RC Modifications so that I can ride again

    Yeah, I bet you're 5lbs at least lighter than mine for sure! Once I'm wheelin' I don't even feel it. Good work mate! :)

    Awesome! Glad to see you back in the saddle. Nicely done with the upgrades and mods.

    Yeah, the number of times I've met another cyclist there is often enough to imagine a nasty accident. Especially if it's somebunny you know! Shut up Dave...

    No ride for me on the weekend, much to my dismay. So last night I was admonishing myself, and this morning I started thinking, "what if"... I looked at the trusty (not) weather app, and it seemed "OK" with maybe a chance of showers. To heck with it, I'm biking to the office! Packed my laptop...

    Methinks it's interesting to discuss keeping the rubber side down on another planet. It's the gravity of the situation...

    Not really advanced but - cassette wear after first 180 miles?

    Just checked and lubed the chain. Still not showing .5 yet at 6800kms. Checked in two places. Largest/lowest gear "looks" like a few teeth are worn though.

    Tesoro Automatiq does 183km and 1860m vert on one charge

    That's excellent. I have 800wh and heavily doubt I'd get near that

    Yup, largest/lowest. Had that adjusted as best as possible, but perhaps it's out a little again. She'll be up on the workstand this Sat...

    I think I'd likely kill myself at Whistler pretending I'm still 35 y/o... 🤣

    Not really advanced but - cassette wear after first 180 miles?

    I do check it often with a Park Tool device. I am amazed that it hasn't reached .5 yet! I took my bike to the LBS for its annual once over a couple of months ago and they confirmed it was still good! A couple of weeks ago I noticed a bit of skipping in the lowest gear, so I can tell the time is...

    Not really advanced but - cassette wear after first 180 miles?

    180 miles is too soon to see any extensive wear, but one huge tip is to never shift under load. The mid drive puts a lot more pressure on the drive train than a regular bike, so make sure you let the pedal pressure off before shifting. So far I have almost 7000kms on my original cassette/chain...
