    Standing Up on ebike: safe?

    I envision a frenzy of puns seething just below the surface, waiting to be unleashed by an unsuspecting comment. Outstanding! Always brings a smile.

    Wow, didn't even know about those incidents! Hate to admit that I'd love to see more consequences for the worst fan behavior, official or otherwise. When Tadej was on Jonas' wheel in the thick of the crowd ~2 km from today's finish, he couldn't have attacked if he'd wanted to. The crowd had...

    Three things: 1. Really liking the ITV coverage I'm seeing on YouTube. Routinely getting the best interviews out of the riders — I think by routinely asking more thoughtful and more respectful questions and leaving the zingers and blatantly sensational fluff to their competitors. Good on ITV...

    Evenepoel abandonned?? Don't recall a crash. Is he ill? What are those candy bar-sized black thingies sticking down and out from behind their saddles? Radio transponders?

    Wouldn't it be fun to get a job at the TdF? Probably very hard to land a spot doing anything. Best bet: Apply to be a wee watcher.

    New e-Bike owner from S. Florida

    The good news: It's survivable. I'd worry more about NOT being as old as me one day. Got back some routine labs yesterday. A1c remains somewhat elevated but has come down since last check. Since my totally irresponsible diet has if anything gotten worse, the only possible explanation is the...

    Sorry, watched both interviews and still not sure what triggered you. Matteo was clearly wiped, Sepp less so. Should Sepp have done more?

    Yes, just had to rush out of the house to hit the beach with the dog and another friend. More nice post-race interviews with Tadej, especially regarding his decision to use a road bike and not wear a radio. He paced himself just from the displays at the time checkpoints. Worried about blowing...

    Just watched the Peacock clip of the Stage 12 finish. As Tadej crossed the line, we got a nice look at the Whoosh ad plastered across his butt. Wonder what that ad space cost?

    Looking for a cadence sensor commuting bike-where did they all go?

    Boy, this thread went sideways in a hurry! Let's agree that we all have our own priorites and move on.

    Looking for a cadence sensor commuting bike-where did they all go?

    Do you have the best house in all of Warsaw? Wear the very best clothes? Eat at Michelin star restaurants every night? Why not?

    Looking for a cadence sensor commuting bike-where did they all go?

    And yet, the Breeze is a competent, well-made ebike that's also a pleasure to ride — certainly vastly better than no ebike at all. The power delivery's quite nice. Versatile, too. Try one sometime. I understand the physics. I also understand that the power-sensing PAS on my Specialized Vado SL...

    What have you learned from your e-bike experiences?

    First and foremost, that I'm not over the hill at 76. Or at least not that hill. I've actually been over zillions of hills since I started ebiking almost 3 yrs ago. (Hard to avoid here.) Quite a few would have gotten a "Nope, not climbing that" even in my younger cycling days, and I used to be a...

    Haven't heard @RabH mention a wife, so maybe that'd make up for the paparazzi.

    Specialized Turbo Vado SL: An Incredible E-Bike (User Club)

    Interesting. Why would there be such a strong rise in battery drain rate above ease E = 60? Motor power (Pm) is either linear or flat in E in steady riding, and the drain rate is roughly proportional to (Pm / e), where e is the motor's electromechanical efficiency. Hopefully, the efficiency...
