    A Tale of Two Bikes (Part 2)

    I'll probably use ElectriCity Bikes. It's fairly convenient to my home, and I like supporting local businesses. They were fantastic when I was shopping for a bike and did some service on the ZEN when I broke something (not a ZEN issue at all, but owner error).

    A Tale of Two Bikes Part 1. The Watt Wagons Superbike January 2020. I was walking home from the Metro, when I saw my 2016 Subaru Forrester sitting in the same spot as it had been. The car was filthy and hadn’t been driven for nearly two weeks. I was still making car payments and insurance...

    @Ravi Kempaiah What would you estimate the cost of customizing the paint color? Nothing crazy, just one color (white).
