  1. RE: mas.to/@meganL/117211594928738

    Thank you to the two folks who bought my music during Bandcamp Friday and helped me towards paying down some disability-related costs!

    Thanks to the other swell person who contributed directly via paypal.me/plantedu !

  2. First ride after tube replacement went well. I checked all the tire pressures. I knew some would need it because I checked the good front tire yesterday and it was down. And then my mini-compressor needed charging again before I could get to the desired pressure. But the one installed yesterday and pumped by hand by the mech was a bit low as well, and the rear one needed more.

    Hard as rocks ride (I wish I could have afforded full suspension), but no flats!

  3. @JillsJoy Thanks. If you can see my reply to my toot, I made an update from Schwalbe, who made that very suggestion!

    So if I can source it where I am, I'll be getting that put in. #BikeNite #BikeTooter #Cycling #CargoBike #Recumbent

  4. @ascentale From the answer, it sounded to me like speed/acceleration is a factor. That is, motorization makes it so the rim can go faster than the tube is going unless you create more friction that grabs the tube. #BikeNite #BikeTooter #Cycling #CargoBike #Recumbent

  5. OK, here's an update from Schwalbe US (where I had previously made a contact so I had an email).

    They offered to make good on it even though they are saying this is something common on many tubes with e-cycles.

  6. Got a question, but I suspect tonight's #BikeNite queue is full and I need an answer quicker than next week:

    If you ride your cycle ~ every other day, how often should you be checking your tire pressure?

  7. I went for a nice ride around Assen today on my recumbent bike and visited that statue of people planning to destroy the planet which they have outside the NAM building.

    NAM stands for Nederlandse Aardolie Maatschappij, which translates into English as "Evil Dutch Oil Company".
