    How to change turbo mode to be as smooth as ECO

    What cadence do you ride at? I bought a Gazelle because it feels identical to my analog bike; but my normal cadence is 80-90 on either bike. My wife doesn't really like higher cadence, but her knees often start hurting until I get her to increase to ~75 from 50-55. It does sound like you have...

    Gas cans and fun findings.

    Unless the power is out and I'm filling the generator, I only do 2 gallons at a time in my 5 gal jug. But I only use 4 or 5 gallons a year between mower, edger and snow blower.

    Gas cans and fun findings.

    I only use mine after dark so the gas can police don't confiscate it.

    Gas cans and fun findings.

    I had to go online to see what is available locally. Based on what I saw, I'll continue to take good care of my simple "can with a spout and screw on cap".

    I have no idea the provenance of the bots I'm referring to.

    Frequent access problems: “Oops! We ran into some problems"

    I noticed AI bots on this site over a year ago; obvious by their responses.

    I got a big surprize....

    Only a few minor aspects of security + reduced lines going into boarding areas (includes Precheck.) Last time going through checkpoint we were surprised how many had Precheck compared to 2 or 3 years ago. Biggest benefit is re-entering country.

    I got a big surprize....

    Our Drivers License has been a Real ID for over 5 years. It's good to read the TSA is doing their job.

    The transition

    Be interesting to see what they had for the electrical system. There are many with LiFePO4 batteries and solar/grid/alternator charging systems in vans that are trouble free; but most also use listed components. There are a lot of Chinese crap copycat components out there; hopefully tariffs...

    New York State ebike legislation

    Foolish if the speed limit doesn't apply to all bikes.

    I got a big surprize....

    Congrats on finally being selected! Although I haven't been on an HF, we have participated in the return welcome. TSA check in should be a nothing event for you. I assume HF has a site that describes what can and can't go through security check. If they don't, shame on them. Spoiler alert...

    Gazelle Ultimate C380 HMB

    Correct. Hands work just fine for hydration except when canoe racing.

    Gazelle Ultimate C380 HMB

    We used a straw system when we raced canoes; never really liked them for hiking or biking.

    Gazelle Ultimate C380 HMB

    In our older age (70), we get off every 20 minutes or so. Hydrate, stretch, butt relief; it's a good thing for us. Also, with the upright riding position, it's a long way to those bosses compared to the drop bars we used to ride. If we wanted to hydrate on the go, we'd look at bar bottle holders.

    “No e-bikes allowed”

    Perhaps I missed what you are riding; Class 2? Are you doing a bunch of prep riding b4 your adventure? Having done several distance rides (in my younger days, analog not ebike) most people that suffered didn't have sufficient seat time b4 the ride (typically 500ish miles in 7 days with (1)...

    Where do you keep your bike?

    That's what we do. To the original post question: In our attached garage or in our van if we're traveling with them. The only time they are not in one of those 2 places is if we are on a ride.
