Bike History of an Average American Cycling Enthusiast
After digging through SD cards last week, I came across some files of my old bikes dating back to my childhood through today. Though I never was a pro cyclist, I can confidently say I am an average American Cycling Enthusiast and have spent considerable time in the saddle and on the work bench wrenching bikes. Join me as we explore the journey I took from 1997 into 2024 and all the Bikes that came and went along the way. My biggest regret is selling that Pre-Trek Klein Adroit :-( damn those things are selling for $$$$ these days! Also, I hope to someday find a Kinesis Maxlight XCPro2 frame again soon to build up as a beginner bike for one of my kids. any of you fellow bike nerds want to r...

Is Gravel Cycling’s Indy Roots Slowing Growth?
Просмотров 14311 месяцев назад
In the new world of Gravel Cycling, we have seen large swaths of cycling enthusiasts transfer from across many cycling disciplines into this exciting and fulfilling new faction of the sport. In its beginnings, Gravel Cycling was a way to revolt against the sanctioned and perfectly curated races that existed in both Road and XC cycling. Many people saw it as a way to "mix it up" and experience m...
Dream Home Built Under 90 days & WAY Under Budget!
Просмотров 3 тыс.Год назад
2 years ago in the height of the building bubbly frenzy, I decided to build our dream home on 2 acres along the Red River in Minnesota. I was able to complete this project way under budget and on time even while [at the time] building materials were at record high prices and builders were bidding insane prices for projects. How? I did it myself and took control of our family's future homestead....
Bike Industry goal for 2024: Less is More
Просмотров 4,4 тыс.Год назад
After the biggest 2 years of sales the cycling industry has ever seen in 2020 and 2021, the industry is now trying to figure out how to handle a sudden downturn and flatlining of consumer demand. Who is to blame? Geopolitics? Economics? Or was it simply a handful of greedy industry leaders overreaching and exceeding the realistic long term growth rate that this industry has steadily seen for de...

    Just a heads up from running mowers for years. Idle your throttle down to low for a few seconds before you shut the machine off.

    I have this tractor ... not a lawn tractor it is a garden tractor capable of ground engaging implements and has a locking differential ... you would need at least a 500 series JD for these capabilities

    Where I live, a bit to the left of you, we build stuff with your freebie load of diseased trees. 😲 That's really effing sad you're burning that long stuff. Now it makes sense why you use your new little mower & plastic buggy to retrieve mini-loads of downed trees on your acreage. Splitting that pile of diseased wood is easy pickins with a circular saw or Sawzall, compared to bucking up, loading, hauling, splitting & stacking the downed trees already littered throughout your property. Cool beans, dude! Sweet deal for you!!

  • @mainlittlerock5422
    @mainlittlerock5422 8 месяцев назад

    I'd be using a old F-150 farm truck & getting it done smarter. Looks like there's plenty of space to get a bigger load & be more efficient w/ your time. Nice mower. The buggy won't last for long, unless your baby it. It looks like fun times.

    Like with any decent product. Durability, cheap and available replacement parts and limited warranty will mean customer satisfaction .The other thing is bicycle manufacturers should lobby and pressure our governments to build more bicycle infrastructure the same way the automobile industry did .

    • @deepsleep7822
      @deepsleep7822 11 месяцев назад

      The boiler is insulated but yes, some heat loss occurs. The pipe’s running to the house are insulated. Outside is where the trees are at. These units are also dirty. From wood and wood chips and bugs in the wood to cleaning out the ash. I’d rather do it outside than make a mess in the house.

    The slab wood from the mill in my small town has kept many people from freezing in the winter. It's cheap as hell too. I haven't burned it in a few years but it's only like 10 bucks for a heaping truckload.
