That cover should come with the bike. Mine was either in a ziplock-style bag or in the case that contains the owner’s manual.

I wonder if those manhole covers were for storm drains or sanitary sewer lines. During heavy rains in the Seattle metro area, groundwater infiltration and illicit storm connections to the sanitary sewer lines will cause the “sauce” to surcharge and pop manhole covers. You don’t want to walk...

I wanted to be a lumberjack when I was a kid. One of my uncles (I'm half Canuckian on my moms side) worked for MacMillan Bloedel at the time and suggested that I pick a career with less "excitement" like commercial crabbing. My other uncle, who owned a commercial fishing boat, laughed and said...

I remember that game. I also remember getting a tour of the stadium after it was built because one of the fathers in our kid's pre-K school worked at the stadium. As part of the tour, he showed us the field's drainage system that was designed to handle the "hundred-year" rain (based off of...

Always check your wiper blades before "monsoon" season. When I lifted them off the windshield last year to check them, the blades just fell off, totally dry-rotted and less than 2 years old. In Seattle, I could get 5 years out of a set of wipers and they got a lot of use. Here, 18 months before...

To be fair (and humidity wimpy) our humidity rarely reaches 60% and that is when it rains during summer (our "monsoon" season). It doesn't last very long (hours) since the triple-digit temperature evaporates the moisture so quickly. Spring and early summer ranges from 10-20% so when it hits mid...

Holy Crappola! Now you have me thinking that maybe I should be getting a full-face helmet! I hope your recovery is as speedy as it can be.

So since it's currently 107 outside, 96 in the garage, and only 78 in the house, I should be safe! I'll be sure to be inside by midnight since that's about the time it's forecast to hit 92.

Stopping at every pub along the route is called a "time-warp" eh? "Mr. Scott, Warp Factor 9!" "Um drankin' as fast as I ken captain!"

Once again, it's off to google I go for the "Scottish to English" translator.

You mentioned riding the Hardline trail which is near the Cathedral Rock Vortex. This vortex is said to have powerful feminine energy. I can only assume you did something to piss-off the lady of the mountain and in turn, she bitch-slapped you to the ground. Next time, best to offer up a rose or...

The bobcat looks very grey. Our local bobcats (the ones I’ve seen) are more of a tan color. Probably each blends into their locales.

Enjoy your new bike!

The price on an emtb is definitely hard to swallow given that they often rival motorcycle prices. Just as I did, you'll just have to "suck it up" and pay the piper to get want you want. People throw out the term "over-biked" and in my opinion, it's a ridiculous term. Higher level components are...

Those are just normal temperatures for us desert folks during the summer months however, unlike here, I don’t suppose many of European houses or businesses have air conditioning.

Was the hedgehog’s name Spiny Norman and was he still looking for Dinsdale? Just curious. 🧐

The team from Qatar were probably too cold to play well. 🥶 😆

Specialized Turbo Levo Comp. In flatter terrain, I use Eco (detuned to 25% of power), hills I use Trail (detuned to 50%) and I use “Auto minus” if the trail is wildly undulating between Trail and Turbo mode needs. I have “overrun” set at the default level which I believe gives power for 1 meter...

We're going to miss you when "it" happens.:oops:
