#30DaysOfBiking Day 2:
After a long trip, today was a day to get caught up on urgent home items. So my #ebike rides were purely essential errands. First in the morning it was off the lawyer's office in the rain to pick up estate planning documents. Then in the afternoon off to the county assessor's office to hand in a homestead tax application, but by this time the rain had ceased. Yesterday's snow is mostly gone this afternoon, but was still obvious this morning.

I'm back home from my awesome trip to the great 5 National Parks in Utah.
Back to reality. So I rode my #ebike to this evening's park board meeting. It was just starting to snow on the way there. But by the return trip it was snowing a very wet snow heavily. Good thing I was dressed for it and my new winter cycling jacket repels wet snow very well. Each way was just over 4 miles, so a light start, but I'll ramp it up as time and weather allow.

This does not surprise me. Poor battery quality seems to plague e-bikes with after market kits (and others). BUT there is a failure in relation of the sellers - Amazon and Ebay sell this risky shit all the time with no come back. Maybe they should be forced to take responsibility - and that includes criminal liability.

Bicycling Monterey 💚🌎🌍🌏

We notice @ternbicycles hasn’t posted on Mastodon about this, so we’re sharing this news with the Fediverse: Tern Bicycles has a new (Gen 3, 2025 model) Tern GSD, "Our Best Cargo eBike for Families.”

If our kids were still young, and budget allowed, we’d love to have one! Check them out: ternbicycles.com/en/bikes/473/ BTW, we got a kick out of clicking their day/night option—and that photo made us wish libraries had Terns for bookmobiles!

#MorningAll. The horrors persist, but so shall I.

After a terrible night’s sleep, I’m up and prepping for our trek to the #TeslaTakedown #protest at the Swasticar service center in #Tempe #today. We’re biking down (~22 km), and I have my protest sign strapped to the back of my #ebike. Wish me luck!

And if you haven’t yet joined in a local protest, I highly recommend it. Taking action feels very good and compliments your “WTF??” social postings quite nicely.

Courage & persistence. ✊

#BikeStreak Day 75:
I awoke early and saw on the radar the snow was about to start. As I had a couple essential items needed, I decided to dress quickly and jump on my #ebike to go to the grocery store before dawn and snow, for 6 miles. With the cloud cover it was still mostly dark. The wind was strong out of the Northeast and the temperature was falling. I guess our chance of more rain than snow is diminishing. It might be an interesting day given the blizzard warning.

#BikeStreak Day 71:
Back to reality. We had plummeting temperatures and increasing wind, so I went out before it could get worse. I rode my #ebike to Silver Lake and then Cascade Lake to see what our record warmth yesterday did to the lake ice, and the ice is completely gone. But the ride wasn't comfortable, as there was rain, then sleet, then light snow, and by the end my hands and feet were cold.
I think I'll just stay in and watch hockey this afternoon.

There is a Canada Goose behind the bike on the shore and several more swimming in the lake. There is a small island with bare trees near the far shore. There are trees and houses past the far shore and the sky is cloudy.

#BikeStreak Day 69:
Today is another nice day. It was near freezing when I set out for coffee with the hockey guys. But on the return trip it was already 50F (10C). I was riding my #ebike as I had to run another errand. I went to the grocery store and picked up ready made pie crusts and ready made pie filling. Given tomorrow is pi day (3/14), I had to make a quick pie, it's easier to carry the ingredients than an already made pie.
Happy 3.14159265358979323846... day tomorrow.

#BikeStreak Day 67:
Today is cooler but still sunny and dry. But my ride is utilitarian, mostly, as I rode my #ebike to the Dentist, 8.6 miles away. I rode by Assisi Heights and saw a message from the Rochester Franciscans. On the way home I took a longer, safer route, so it ended up being a 20.5 mile day. I have a ticket for tonight's #mnwild game, so no afternoon ride. Tomorrow I am thinking of riding the Wapsi-Great Western Line Trail in Iowa.

In the fence is a message constructed using red Silo cups in the links and reads "WELCOME THE STRANGER." There are fir trees behind the fence under blue skies.
