Only England (and perhaps some Wales) is not a dump!

It is when you want to have England everywhere :)

A close friend of mine, an advanced rider with money told me he was fully aware how the Cog worked and that he planned to switch to it soon!

The plot thickens. Are you travelling to Benidorm soon? :D

"Under the shirt, above the belt" :) I knew you would find that bad translation :D Polish peasants of the era. A painting by Józef Chełmoński who lived in my greater neighbourhood :)

You are as British Charge as you never want to embrace the diversity :) I think you rather belong to Benidorm :) Kvass

A Frosty META Bar Ride I wasn't feeling for a ride last weekend (frost!) but why are friends for? Tommy reminded me I needed keep my legs moving (and was ready to -- virtually -- kick my ass if I wouldn't ride) :) A Fast City Train saved me the absolutely unnecessary part of my ride (still, I...

@Extreme1: I did my own research: You must use Zwift to change the gears with Clicker Otherwise, you can only shift using the Wahoo app.

Thank you! As you are probably aware, these friends of mine do not own the latest Kickr with COG :) I can remember the three devices I really had to learn using during my lifetime: A cassette recorder (owned a tape recorder before) in 1977 A deep fryer (so backwards Poland was back in 1985!) A...

So glad to hear it, Extreme! For me, a modern cycling trainer was a Tale Of Iron Wolf (as we say in Poland); your story has helped me understand how the thing works. Nice pedalling! Just a question: You can certainly shift gears a do cornering with the remote. Can you brake? Any other functions...

The bike gives a very good support to the body. The friction of the shoes is usually sufficient to enable mounting the bike on regular ice, which is by no means smooth. . Black ice is a different case. You must find any ice free object to set your foot on before mounting the bike. I was in...

Actually it was hard packed snow covered by a layer of ice. Studded tyres do love having some ice beneath them. Worse if there's a small spot of frozen snow with no ice on the top. The e-bike gets a jerk when a wheel (especially the rear one) hits that spot. I rode rather slowly and...

Riding ice on studded tyres before the sunset today :)

Do you keep e-bikes with internal batteries out there in the frost?!

I'm going out for pizza :) At -6 C, I might use a train :)

Kevin, I'm sure BlackHand as a Bosch E-Bike user will contribute with useful information. Let me tell you why it makes sense going for a new Smart System e-bike. Lack of updates for the older Bosch system also means the Nyon maps are not being updated anymore Bosch E-Bike guarantees the spare...

Watch the latest Orbea Muga for the total proprietary integration :D Well, Specialized is very open and easy on the electronic front while the brand doesn't stop coming up with many exotic hardware solutions...

Cannot wait to read your ride report, Johnny.

Yes, Wahoo has the LEV Range field only the e-bike needs to be able to calculate that value and transmit it. What model year is your Vado SL? You see, the Mastermind e-bike should be able to calculate ans transmit the Range while TCU 1 cannot do it. What you have in Garmin for sure is Smart...

I appreciate Garmin (and Giant) whenever appropriate. What's happened to the freedom of speech? I also hate Bosch E-Bike if that matters :D You also could stop reiterating you are a UCI referee :) I'm neither Garmin nor Jan Capek. I owned a Garmin 540 and was dissatisfied with the LEV Travel...
