    Garmin and iPhone

    Got an invite to beta test the new version a few weeks ago. Popped up when I was finishing a ride. It seems smoother and has been syncing consistently so I think I like it better.

    Weird bikes, bike innovation and bike contraptions

    The claim is that this bike would reach the speed of light when you pedal @90 RPMs. How many megawatts would your legs need to produce to maintain 671,000,000 mph? How many calories would it take to accelerate to that speed? To maintain it? Is there even a chain lube that wouldn’t just burst...

    What have you done to your bike today?

    They’ve lasted for me so far. The small plugs didn’t cut it though, had to use the next size up. If it isn’t a little tough to insert, i wouldn’t trust it.

    Vintage Bike Knowledge Needed

    I would too, and fast. Still traumatized from being forced to ride a girls bike as a kid.

    9:Zero:7 Fat Bike

    Was checking this bike out in person at the show/ swap meet on Sunday. It’s a very nice bike, light and built well. If I didn’t already have several fat bikes I would’ve bought it on the spot.

    Vintage Bike Knowledge Needed

    Yes, it’s from bmxmuseum.com i’ve saved a small fortune in eBay fees over there. They still generally use PayPal which is a 2-3% fee but it gives buyers protection.

    Creaky Cranky Cranks

    Did have Betty the Bucksaw quiet again for a couple of rides before the cranks started creaking again. Actually it’s more like a muted click at the bottom of each crank revolution, both sides. Replaced the BB as that had a bad bearing, found that when the cranks first started creaking. Cleaned...

    Vintage Bike Knowledge Needed

    As you can see, it sold within 24 hours so there is demand. Start high, you can always lower it or take best offer. $1500 would be completely original, mint/ mostly unused and stored well IMO. Heck, the guy who bought this might want those #4 plates you have.

    Vintage Bike Knowledge Needed

    I remember them, there was a girl’s version too, Sweet Thunder and it was pink. A quick look at what has sold on BMX museum, most recent was a 1975 sold for $450 almost a year ago. Things are slower now. More have sold for less but the one you have there looks to be pretty nice. The #4 plates...

    Tell me where you rode today...

    The forest smelled so good today, especially around the other bridge. Boogied a figure eight around orange and blue this morning.

    What have you done to your bike today?

    New headset, same as the old headset but without the creak. TBH, I think the race previously on the fork was the wrong one.

    Sobriety- Alcohol vs ice cream?

    Ice cream withdrawal won’t kill you, as far as I know. Why take a chance though. My pop-pop died from liver failure. Drank beer every day, all day, while working with machinery and sharp woodworking tools. Never slurred or stumbled, his tolerance must have been off the charts. Found out after...

    Garmin and iPhone

    I’ve had this happen a lot with my watch and iPhone, restarting both usually corrects it. Some of my problems are probably me letting the phone memory get too full. It’s been much better since I cleared out some stuff. The hydration tracker is what gets stuck/ goes goofy on mine all the time...

    International RAD day

    Got the whole family to watch Rad (Riff Trax version) on my birthday 🎂 last week. It was a good time! International Rad Day, a late observation but i had a captive audience.

    Black Run Preserve Poker Run 4/13

    Read that it’s going through the golf course to BRP and then to the REI trails and then back through the golf course. The REI trails aren’t difficult at all but they do have some swoops here and there. “This year's bike course is new and will be approximately 8 miles. Bikers will go left out of...

    Car-spotting thread

    This just looks like a dumpster. People are gonna wing their trash bags on top of them or pile their old furniture up around it.
