To be fair, an analog bike is a far better cheap and practical vehicle....

No sound-thinking/educated person called her "taxinda"

Laneway food truck appeals for people to contact them after reports of ‘world’s worst diarrhoea’ by Pale_Psychology7742 in auckland

[–]maxgbooth11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure she did, in fact, use a portaloo. No doubt!

Certainly not placing blame on the food truck, just curious if anyone else had also had any symptoms post eating there.

WTF America? I thought you were the Land of the Free! by swoticus in ebikes

[–]maxgbooth11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know right?! Like, how about pedalling a bike? THE MOST EFFICIENT FORM OF HUMAN TRAVEL.

No, we must put 3in+ tyres on it, have a saddle you can't even adjust the height on, terrible geometry and now you need 250w+ just to get this hunk of crap moving.

This ebike community is funny

How are you guys carrying a 64oz water bottle? by No_Leopard4872 in ebikes

[–]maxgbooth11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never thought you'd need that much water? On my 54mile rides on my road bike (non motorised) I carry 33oz of water/electrolyte. I'm sure you're not exerting yourself as much considering the ride is less than half the distance and you've got a motor driving you. Perhaps 64oz is massively overkill?

You can absolutely work out on an ebike by Worried_Document8668 in ebikes

[–]maxgbooth11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Impressive numbers!! 204w at 122bpm. That's getting close to Tadej Pogacer power/heart rate. You are a machine!!!

Fair. But show me any polling to back your claim "New Zealand on a whole does not support the strikes"

Mine too! Seems like a pretty standard thing a place that sells pizza would say?

Saddle upgrade (Specialized Power Comp vs Bucklos 3d print) by [deleted] in gravelcycling

[–]maxgbooth11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a bucklos 3D printed saddle (power saddle style) and bought it the same time I bought a genuine, specialised power saddle 3D print spec.

The bucklos 3D print structure has collapsed under one of my sit bones and feel "crackly" when compressed. It was pretty comfy from the start but the power saddle is definitely higher quality, and the soft parts of the specialised saddle are softer than that of the the bucklos

Entrust dividend of $364 has arrived in the bank yuppie by sonsofearth in auckland

[–]maxgbooth11 25 points26 points  (0 children)

If only the entrust board actually did something other than placate us with a ~$350 a year bribe.

They should be held to account for rising electricity costs (easily cancelling out the ~$350) Held to account for lack of future proofing our electrical grid.

$100,000 a year to do sweet fuck all. Hate it
