King of the Maelstrom.

Well, I am no Hong Kong Phooey, but I can do no-hands on my Silvio. Never got anywhere near it on the Grasshopper.

Also, a DF has the amazing ability to catapult you over the handlebars so you can get a nice bite of the tarmac. Jason says he stiffens his grip as he goes over bumps. Cruzbike front wheel is between two long levers - the bars and the BB. So it is immune to unscheduled steering. Do MTB...

So they go downwind in a hurricane, then they have to get home again. What do they do, wait for the eye to pass over?

55 years old, but it is the COPD that slows me down. Still, I am going to go on and on. I enjoy it and I think it keeps me fit.

When that solar panel is not delivering power it will keep the rain off. Is there a rack between the back wheels or is that part of the frame?

I know less about physiology than I think I do. I just do not want to be out of breath before I even start the climb. It would help if I could leave the belly behind.

If I am approaching the bottom of a climb I slow down. I want to get rid of all my lactic acid before Imstart climbing.

Yes. It does for me. I have those with the XX1 cog, and my chain never comes off.

Or look up the weather forecast.

The card says you should share it on social media. Well, you just have. You should put a photo of his numberplate on here so the Cruzbike Crew can target him. He is probably one of the haters on Bentrideronline. If they want a war they can have one.

COPD, otherwise known as emphysema.

Underperfusion will be my curse until I die. I do not think arm-wrestling will help me.

Why don't you get mudguards? Is mud-wrestling Kenya's national sport?

In the middle of the back wheel of my Grasshopper is a boulder made of a mixture of polluted mud, acid rain, grit, dog poo, horse poo and I know not what. Inside there is a Rohloff, refusing to die. That is 14 gears for 15 years of abuse. So the cost per year is not that high.

There was a bloke who did not like chain drive. He did not like shaft-drive either. So he got a motor and put a dynamo in the BB. There is a motorbike driven by hydraulics. I wonder how fast the liquid flows, and how much friction it generates against the tubes.

Kill me is what it nearly did. But I am now saying that it was worth it. I have been saying this for a long time. A long time since I tried to find out how to sell scrap aluminium.

I am getting my money's worth out of this contraption if it kills me.

Brain s are adaptable at any age. You are learning to ride a bike. That is like learning to ride a bike.

I realised I was consistently falling inwards. So I started forcing myself to enter turns feeling as if I was about to fall outwards. It worked. A week later I fell off my Grasshopper. These days I can switch from one to the other without a problem.
