Welcome Rob. I rode in Boston, Cambridge during 2011-2023. Hope winter's not bad this year..

Jesper, a couple of years ago I rode to Fitchburg and there's a new bike path that's pretty. Otherwise, in the past, I would ride on the beautiful, tree-lined backroads of North-central MA including Gardner..

Hi, I'm in Woodward Oklahoma,USA..
I ride a Schwinn Meridian 1 Speed to and from work everyday. But my favorite place to ride is down a moderately steep hill with no side traffic,so I can just enjoy the speed and don't have to worry about braking or dying. The Schwinn is just a cruiser meant for leisurely rides. So down a hill is as much excitement as I can expect.
But lol ask me about the cheap import I motorized! Mm

That is funny!

Circa 1979, my little brother had to spend two weeks flat on his back with patches covering both eyes, following surgery to save one injured eye. He ended up getting hooked on daytime soaps because my mom had them on while doing the housework.

I am guessing just listening to the soaps? Personally I would "listen" some movies/shows without even having to watch..some are so addicted.

One of my biking buddies recommended I record my rides and post on Youtube. Not just the highlights but hours and hour-long videos. He said some people just like to see videos of cycling or sticking or such which working. I was surprised but whatever gets work done..:-)

I live in rural Nevada, unlimited single track, cow trails, two track roads and sage brush. I'm trying to decide on what e bike to purchase. Is there a app/ filter I can use to list my needs and physical abilities to narrow my search ? Thanks all
