Nate AllenA pretty good crowd for the Earth Day <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/Bike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Bike</a> Bus for grownups in <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/Portland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Portland</a>. My route was more straightforward than it looked on the map, and the commute seems doable for sure. Also Other Nate (he probably calls me the same) introduced himself <a href="https://xoxo.zone/@voiceofunreason" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@voiceofunreason</a>. Good to meet other Portland Mastodon folks. <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BikeTooter</a> <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/BikeFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BikeFriday</a>

They do great work. I mean, just look at it! <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/BikeFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BikeFriday</a> <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/bike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bike</a> <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BikeTooter</a>

Nate AllenThis is the last picture of my new <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/bike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bike</a> before I drive down to <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/Eugene" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eugene</a> to pick it up next Thursday! <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/BikeFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BikeFriday</a> <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BikeTooter</a>

Nate AllenToday's update on my <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/bike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bike</a> baby, she's painted and being aligned in prep for assembly it seems. The component made out of sheet is the motor mount for the <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/Bosch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Bosch</a> inline drive. <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/BikeFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BikeFriday</a> <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/AllDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AllDay</a>

Nate AllenIf you ask politely, it seems that <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/BikeFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BikeFriday</a> will send you pictures of your new baby being born. I believe the two parts of the folding frame are in the picture below. <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/bike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bike</a> <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/biketooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#biketooter</a> <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/Eugene" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eugene</a> <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/Oregon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Oregon</a>

pedestrian cyclistPS: In case I need this information again some time (and find it here): It (Bike Friday Haul a Day with XT 1x11) needs a chain with 158 elements.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bikefriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bikefriday</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/hauladay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hauladay</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/cargobike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cargobike</a>

😀🚲What's it like climbing S Corbett with a mostly-charged battery and just me on <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/BikeFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BikeFriday</a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/tandem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tandem</a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/eBikes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eBikes</a> project <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BikeTooter</a>? The <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/GrinMAC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GrinMAC</a> hub motor is a standard/slow wind in a 20in wheel (top speed ~22mph) and the battery is 52V 14.5Ah, load is probably ~1200W. I was in the middle ring of the 3x8 gearing.

Kevin Dalley<a href="https://c.im/@nomisiv" class="u-url mention">@nomisiv</a> Good luck with your bike. Unfortunately, <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/BikeFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#BikeFriday</a> is no longervreluable on warranty repairs. I have been trying to get my 9byear old Tikit repaired/replaced since July. They don't answer email, eventually return answering service messages<a href="https://sfba.social/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#BikeTooter</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/BikesOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#BikesOfMastodon</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/BikeFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#BikeFriday</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/locabikes" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#locabikes</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/bikeadventure" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#bikeadventure</a>

Kevin Dalley<a href="https://sfba.social/tags/BikeFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#BikeFriday</a> is no longer a dependable company. My Tikit failed in July, 2023, 9 years into a 10 year warranty. Tikit is discontinued. While Bike Friday has promised a a replacement with a Pakit, they fail to return email, and I cannot finalize the replacement. They answer only after leaving a message with the answering service. This is not the company I have known for 15 years.

Bicycling Monterey 💚🌎🌍🌏<a href="https://social.wxcafe.net/@JodieWren" class="u-url mention">@JodieWren</a> We've never owned or tried out a <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/FoldingBike" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#FoldingBike</a>. But a <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Monterey" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Monterey</a> Peninsula couple with folding <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/bikes" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#bikes</a> told me they had them topped with high-visibility flags. He said: “After she had a near run-in with a truck, I found these flags, and we both use them all the time.” <a href="https://bikemonterey.org/high-visibility-flags-and-folding-bikes.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no">https://bikemonterey.org/high-visibility-flags-and-folding-bikes.html</a>In 2012 I met <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/MontereyCounty" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#MontereyCounty</a> residents Bobbie Kamil (below) and her husband, John Ittelson. Bobbie said a high priority on their packing lists when they pack for any trip: folding bikes. Here is a 2012 photo of Bobbie <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/bicycling" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#bicycling</a> in Seaside, on a <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/BikeFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#BikeFriday</a> Tikit, en route back to their Monterey home. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#BikeTooter</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Fedibikes" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Fedibikes</a>

NorCal Paul 🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇦For <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/BikeFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#BikeFriday</a> , (on Saturday) here's my ride. It's a Haibike Enduro, <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/ebike" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ebike</a> It's my 3rd ebike. The 1st two were 1000W, fat tires, with active suspensions. Great fun on easy terrain, but I needed A LOT more suspension!!! And this HaiBike has what *I* need. (If you need to land 40ft. jumps, you'll need more.) The Haibike sacrifices a throttle and 30MPH top speeds, for lighter weight, long travel suspension and 29" wheels. It's pedal-assist only, and I'm just fine with that. Great 🇩🇪 bike!
