Ford is working on a $25,000 compact EV (www.fastcompany.com)

Small EVs are a big market abroad—a stark contrast to the gigantic offerings like the Ford F-150 Lightning and the plethora of electric SUVs that are prevalent in the U.S. But the small EV market here is growing, and Ford is getting in on the action. The automaker is pivoting to smaller—and cheaper—electric vehicles....

Yeah, there's a big difference between pro cycling and biking to get around. The pro peloton isn't remotely sustainable—lots of international travel, transfers of team cars, team buses, helicopters, signal relay planes, etc. I suppose no pro sport is green. But biking for transport is one of the most efficient and sustainable.

forpeterssake,

This. They're making dozens of them. An EV sedan or hatchback is more rare.

forpeterssake,

Not half bad, actually! Admittedly, it's a bit of a complicated story.

forpeterssake,

Another vote for Deep Rock Galactic, a great little co-op shooter. And if you don't need PvP, there's always Borderlands.

Flats vs Clip less for long distance.

I've been riding clip less all last season and until last week I decided to switch to flats. Last week I decided to switch to flats to see if I can improve ride comfort. I was surprised during my first ride. It felt weird and I maintain the same technique as if I was in clip less minus the pulling up the pedal. I noticed that...

forpeterssake,

I rode clipless for years, but didn't prefer to use them when commuting, and now I ride on flat pedals 99% of the time. I do like to be able to shift positions sometimes, but more than anything, I like being able to wear different shoes when riding, especially when it's cold and I can just wear warm boots. My fitness level isn't so extreme that I notice the marginal gains of clipless pedals anyway.

Riding my first gran fondo tomorrow morning

I'm a ball of nerves because I've never actually gone 120km before, and I'm worried about my bike, and I'm worried about not being able to maintain the 20km minimum speed. I'm going to bed now to get a good nights rest but here's to grinding it out on the bike! See y'all on the other side!
