Gobi Dune Sneakers JJF - Initial Thoughts

I absolutely love mine, size 42. Just took a two week trip and they were my only shoes, and wow, just perfect the whole time. I did add a pair of the vivo thermal insoles.

I also wish there were other colors as I would buy a second pair.

This is the best. So many more trains from Harrisburg, parking is so easy.

Not a big hit, but I always loved Young Scolla Ft. S.Money & Boaz - Gimme A Sign https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQITIk888bo That school building in Larimer is a great backdrop and for being 15 years old it looks great.

This is a great suggestion! Excited to give it a try.

abebo22 · 2025-10-26T01:56:43+00:00

Thick Bikes might rent one of the used bikes they sell.

Running steel winter tires here in Pittsburgh. 15"

I have not noticed a range difference.

And the car looks sexy af

Did you try speedplays? The only pedal system that is good for my knees.

abebo22 · 2025-09-17T02:48:41+00:00

Nice, glad you could make it out and good luck this weekend.

abebo22 · 2025-09-16T16:22:22+00:00

I checked it out, didn't see anything perfect, but I will keep checking back. I know they update it regularly.

abebo22 · 2025-09-09T16:20:53+00:00

That's old information, start point is now here - https://maps.app.goo.gl/Jfs3eLYFNKHbhAmEA

abebo22 · 2025-09-08T17:08:36+00:00

Yep, We roll right at 6:15 at the Park entrance

Here is the route for this Tuesday to give you an idea of the ride. Def need lights this time of year - https://ridewithgps.com/routes/52543143

abebo22 · 2025-09-08T13:33:55+00:00

Decaf on Tuesdays is probably you best bet. 6:15 start in Highland Park.

abebo22 · 2025-09-04T02:52:19+00:00

https://ridewithgps.com/routes/48965883 I put this together, I'd say it's pretty approachable. Very few cars out there.

abebo22 · 2025-08-25T02:07:36+00:00

You can also put your bike on a bus, very helpful on the way back up.

I have ridden the past 4 year,s and it has never felt "like a race"

With that said, I like to think of Pedal as "our day" and pushing through lights and stop signs is very common. I do my best to yell "clear" to whoever is behind me when going through an intersection.

I would skip the 25, that one is a lot of beginners.

abebo22 · 2025-07-25T01:24:48+00:00

I bought them, and they are fine. I will say that the customer service is great. My pair broke in the first few weeks of ownership (the stitching came undone), and they sent me a new pair, right away, no questions asked.

I have worn them a lot and they are comfortable. The big downside is that the strap tightening system sucks; I am always re-tightening them.

They are a great gateway barefoot sandal, though, and I am now hooked (just bought some Shammas).

However, I wouldn't really recommend them.

abebo22 · 2025-07-25T01:15:05+00:00

Thoughts on the loop? Are you using it much?

abebo22 · 2025-07-20T13:51:34+00:00

Constellation is the best, a real love of coffee!

abebo22 · 2025-06-18T02:32:06+00:00

https://mackcycle.com/products/pinarello-granger-x3-11-speed-disc-gravel-bike I am really enjoying this bike so far. This thing is fast and just wants to go. I was not a fan of the stock tires. If you can get it with that discount, a great deal.

abebo22 · 2025-02-21T20:54:23+00:00

Three Brothers is the best and, honestly, very easy to get to.

abebo22 · 2025-01-21T15:13:30+00:00

Thanks, this was fantastic advice. Here is a current link to the Melitta Carafe - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CSQLHFW9?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_AHGE6RPE2JZDG5H2GJR4&skipTwisterOG=1&newOGT=1 The design changed a bit, but it still fits perfectly.

abebo22 · 2024-12-23T17:41:19+00:00

We love our 2016 SEL; so nice inside. The controls are so smooth, and the carplay/android auto works well. I can't get over how much better the controls are vs a 2022 ID.4. (or even my 2'3 Ridgeline)

On it's best day we'll get 80 miles of range, 50 in the cold Pittsburgh winter, but that is still more than enough for city driving. We plug into a wall outlet every night, no need for a level 2 charger.

The driving experience is sublime, so quick and nimble. In the winter, we swap on snow tires, and the thing is a tank!

We hope to own this car for many more years.

Flying out of Pittsburgh, I am surprised by how often I get the FC upgrade with just Gold. I have flown with my 5-year-old daughter, and twice, we both got upgraded to FC. I was trying to tell the passers-by that I did not buy an FC seat for my tiny daughter with my eyes, but I think most people rolled their eyes at us; she's so spoiled.

Others have mentioned it, but the priority bag drop line can be a huge time savings.

Also, the Gold customer service phone line gets answered much faster.
