i'm rocking this bad bitch , but i ride woods only , twice a week. cost 4 times as much as the road types like viper bought. my buddy has 2 of those , and it gets him out riding . that is a great thing if something gets you moving. anything is better than sitting around getting fat . i was not quite a hater but it was not feasible for ebikes and regular bikes to ride together. i finally became one of two reg bikes. i'm 58 and figured why not. holy shit i love this thing. i'm riding twice as far at almost twice the average speed. less fatigue but it will wear you down to zero. no more dreading huge climbs , actually uphill is fun now too.

A few weeks back I went into the ginzo restaurant on 101A to pick up take out . Bill was $53.16 , handed the chick $60 she had to go get a calculator.
Fucking $100,000 for 4 yrs of high school and ya cant do 5th grade math?
yeah liberal mass is just like ny. our school district is not huge, maybe 100 or so per class. 49 million budget. nothing but bullshit now. last year the music teacher jokingly told a student if you don't stop talking i'm gonna put tape on your mouth. all the while smiling, hands the student a piece of tape that she put on her own mouth. it was funny to all but one kid , who proceeded to report it , and not an accurate account. made a huge deal. all the other kids were screaming it was funny , not malicious. they went after the teacher anyway

my tundra costs 75.00 for 2 years to reg. sled is 30.00 for a club, money goes direct, and 45.00 to reg after that. my camper plate was 55.00 last night. keep in mind it's prorated from the 1st of jan. boat trailer was 20.00 , prorated as well. boat is like 75.00 but lasts 3 years. we have school and land tax for our homes . some have staggering numbers for that

we all see it. people that "can't afford to live" , yet have the newest phone, 2 packs of cigs a day, drinking, smoking dope, coach bag, late model cars , plus keep having kids they know they can't afford. some of it is priority and life choice. no doubt shit is expensive , but you as a person have to keep yourself in check

I moved away from cannondale long ago. I have a full xt Jekyll in my garage. Lefty with internal damper upgrade. That was a good time for them but we all had quality issues and moved on. I went to Kona which is a good bike, then Santa Cruz where I am glued. 18 Bronson lead to a 24 heckler ebike and I am having so much fun, and riding tons of miles. Feeling great.

Never again will I be using that stuff.
Only 1 flesh wound. Those Pedros tire levers fucking hurt when they snap back into a knuckle...
i changed my frt from a dhf to a schwalbe magic mary radial. i did it barehanded , no levers. what a tire! back was on backorder so i just have the frt. can't wait for the rear. 22psi and it feels soft if you squeeze it . feels great on trail.

you mean heckler? i have a 24 heckler, and i love it. came from a bronson so it feels very close. early heckler had small battery and isn't worth it. you want the 720. early levo had issues with brose motor i think. just for the record i bought my 24 heckler c 29r for 5100.00 brand new to my door. they are out there still. i like santa cruz ride , especially the vpp. they just went to 4 bar , and i left that for vpp. 4 bar is technically single pivot and i feel they grab every hole and rock. just my opinion of course. one of my friends last night had the new transition ebike and that thing is sweet. another thing for santa cruz is the size. large fits me perfect .

i have my zeb base fork upgraded with the best damper, best air spring , no spacers, and now radial tire on the front. you can just hammer it. i just rode 10 miles of roots and rocks, and it took it with ease. i have the rear radial coming and i can't wait. not to mention what the maxxis dhr2 rear tire looks like at 250 miles of woods riding. weather tonight was stellar after 4 weeks of freezing. dry and marbly out there but damn we were cranking

TICONDEROGA, N.Y. —
Police in Ticonderoga are looking for a man wanted following a domestic stabbing incident.
The Ticonderoga Police Department confirmed to NBC5 that they are looking for Jacob Sawyer, 28, a man accused of stabbing another person in a domestic incident at a home on Park Avenue on Sunday.

Police said Sawyer is five feet seven inches tall and weighs about 160 pounds.
They also clarified that as of 9 a.m. on Monday, there is no longer a shelter in place order issued for residents in town. They said this is an isolated incident, and there is no threat to the public.
Police had previously issued a Shelter in Place order on Sunday afternoon. Residents in the surrounding area were told to stay indoors due to a "heavy police presence."
However, police are still actively searching for Sawyer.
“There was a bunch of state troopers that came flying up by our house,” said local resident John Carr, describing the scene as police locked down the neighborhood on Sunday and launched a door-to-door search for Sawyer.
Carr said officers, some dressed in tactical gear and carrying assault rifles, went house to house asking residents to shelter in place and requesting permission to search backyards for any signs of the suspect.
“They had AR assault rifles, and they're going from door to door asking people to stay in the house to see if the guy was in somebody's backyard hiding out,” he said.
A warrant has been issued for Sawyer's arrest, listing charges that include attempted murder, criminal contempt, and criminal possession of a weapon.
In a subsequent release, police said the female victim is currently in stable condition as of Monday. Community members are expressing concern for her well-being and the emotional toll of the attack.
“I hope that the young lady that got stabbed survives and has no problems,” said Clayton Menser, a nearby resident from Crown Point.
Carr echoed the sentiment, adding, “I hope she recovers physically and all around, mentally, everything. She's going to be traumatized. I hope she lives through this. And it's tragic for the young man's family.”
Despite the ongoing search, authorities say the incident appears to be isolated, and there is no current threat to the public.
Police have asked residents to report any suspicious activity around their homes to the Ticonderoga Police Department at 518-585-3456.
Editor's note: The Ticonderoga Police Department previously said the incident happened at a home on Mount Hope Ave.

Too bad I'm no longer drinking, or I'd just cut the damn tires off and put new ones on, after a few drinks.
you can still get it done if you get to cuttin'...

i hardly ride the fat bike, but i leave the studded tires on it. i rarely flatted with tubes but the supple feel of tubeless is amazing. the radials are supposed to be better yet than that. i even put a wren inverted air fork on my fat bike, still don't ride it much. damn sled gets in the way.
