    Small quality of life Giant mod.

    I added a couple of holes in my motor covers so I can access the forward motor mount bolts for tightness checks. It's annoying to have to drop the battery and remove three covers to get to those bolts, when all I want to do is torque check them. Should apply to pretty much all giants.

    Nothing epic here. Playing with Panorama mode... This one came out neat. This one, Panorama couldn't figure out the bike. Thanks to whoever posted the poison ivy warning sign.

    Can't decide between two Scott MTB e-bikes

    I would say since it doesn't sound like you are planning to do fast single-track that the cheaper version should be more then enough for your needs.

    Here's my Trance. I seem to have run out of talent and trail at the same time. Only crashed it twice this week...

    The view from my landing spot last ride. I had a tree add some steering input as I got onto a small skinny at speed. This caused my bike and I to have different ideas about which way to go. Fortunately, I had a good landing and could keep on ripping. Did 13ish miles on the boost. I pedaled...

    The snappers are easy to distinguish from the box, slider, and cooter turtles. Snappers are mean. I wouldn't pick one up. Cooter: Northern red-bellied cooter - Wikipedia

    Trek rail 9.7 has been nothing but broken chains/cassettes for duration of ownership

    The packaging did look legit, however there were some small differences that made me realize it was counterfeit.

    Trek rail 9.7 has been nothing but broken chains/cassettes for duration of ownership

    They were sold as Shimano chains. I'm suspicious of any chains sold on ebay and Amazon now. I'll gladly pay more to know I'm getting real parts.

    Trek rail 9.7 has been nothing but broken chains/cassettes for duration of ownership

    One issue I have had with chains is counterfeit chains. I had two new chains fail with only about 100 miles on each. I ordered them from eBay from a seller with good feedback, but they both failed quickly. Make sure to get chains from a reputable source.

    Saw a nice big cooter on the trail today. The Eastern Red Bellied Cooter. I gently grabbed the cooter and set it off the trail. It hissed at me. I had a lovely worship session at the altar of boost and burned through 85% of the battery in a bit less than two hours. Garmin claims I burned...

    Saw Mr. Snek today. He did not want to get off the trail. I gave him a gentle touch to get him moving, and he started vibrating his tail to make fake rattler noises. Then he curled up and was mean mugging at me like he was going to bite me. Bro, I'm just trying to keep you from getting run...

    13 miles and under 400' of climbing at one of the flattest local trails. Not technical, but it's flat corner heaven, turn up the boost and wear out the side knobs. It's green. There's a bamboo forest bit that's a bit surreal. A big beech tree. And I got lucky and got a shot of a...

    I suppose so. I'm taking it to the dealer so they can work with Giant.
