Re: GCinDC's Zooma Ty Rod II go kart conversion
tires needed to be replaced anyway, so why not stud them up (hasty last min job) to give it a go on the iced-over canal? https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/13gz3-XdI_0JYEl1vTtGRBHMPNmMKomhnDhuVgLT5Zpu1tMml46amyq1WLdOY-6z-AZSePGZID6DCi9j6PqYX62PNErWhKKw9xQBfdhscRa3MrxOpKfvHIdjHJeVOifZBkFR1WWoJ2em7v0pC...

Re: GCinDC's Giant DH Comp
i agree that it's a dick move to pass pedestrians fast, and almost always slow down to normal bike speed, tweet my bell well in advance and say sorry when i pass. i have at times passed some peds fast, but didn't mean to and regret it. i can't stand it when they do it me when i'm walking. it's a dic...

Opportunity for ebike salesman and/or mechanic in NW DC
City Bikes in DC has just opened an electric bike shop in Tenleytown: http://www.electricitybikes.com/ I visited and talked to a guy there, who happened to be the CEO of City Bikes. In subsequent conversations, he asked me if I knew anyone who'd like to work there as an ebike salesman or mechanic, ...

How is motor heating on trip home? so far so good, but when ambient is 90-100F, i expect the controller to start limiting power near the top of my hill, when the motor gets to ~320F... in early July, i'll be commuting to crystal city, so a bit longer, and not sure the route yet, so that'll be inter...

Poll: How tight is your grip pressure?

Is a tight grip always best, in case you hit an unexpected bump/pothole, where a loose grip could result in losing the grip and falling? Does your grip pressure vary for co...
