Shovelling snow
« on: November 13, 2010, 04:56:20 PM »
Hi guys,

I got some really logical advice on how to set the number of poles in the Cycle Analyst by Alan. Unfortunately it didn’t work as it wasn’t even close to show the right speed. My solution was to ride with a gps and increase the number till it was right. This will be done sometime in the spring because the snow has already covered the landscape and made the use of summer tyres impossible. I have bought myself a new snow-thrower and it work very well but the sound is horrible. I wonder how many batteries I need to make it electrical?  ;D

I have at last found a nut to my winter bike at a shop in Stockholm so she will be out on the street as soon as I have solder the dc-converter an mounted it on the bike. Shovelling snow and repairing a caravan are taking all of my time at the moment, but I will be back here soon to help with my experience on e-bikes.

Already sick of the winter and it has just started. We still got a few hour of daylight but it’s getting darker until the Christmas. :'(

A frozen Peter

Peter, while you're out throwing all that snow, be very careful of any metal poles.

You can always breathe you away from the pole, but what if you get too close when you pee. Who is gonna breathe you away, your buddy?
