The tires, mostly. I had one of the early mountain bikes back in the 80s and kept a wardrobe of tires for it. (This was when there was a lot more choice for 26" wheels). The 1.75" moderately knobby ones were for daily commutes, the smoother 1.375" for weekend camping trips with the touring club, the chunky 2.25" knobbies were for the rare occasions when I actually used it as a mountain bike. On Friday night I would swap over for whatever I planned to do that weekend, then change back on Sunday night. I got to be really fast at tire changes after a while.

Some are already trying to reverse child labour laws. Why spend money educating poor kids when you can just put them to work?

Dementia Donny changes his mind faster than he changes his diapers. Just wait a week.

A relative got scammed by a deepfake of a politician apparently promoting a cryptocurrency scheme. This is everywhere.

I would love to have a small electric vehicle, as most of my driving is done inside a small city. The choices are limited and too expensive for my budget.

By not buying their produce, mostly.

I hope you're wrong.

Is this news? They're both single adults. She's not on the same level as Barbra Streisand, who dated his dad once, though.

I use a pump sometimes, but the Flextail is a lot faster.

When my better half started having prostate problems, he found that SMP saddles worked best. He ended up with the Glider model on one bike and a Stratos on another.

A long ago clubmate of mine would disagree. She was launched headfirst through the passenger side window of a car that abruptly turned left in front of her. Her helmet was demolished, but her only injury was a dislocated shoulder. She brought the remains of the helmet to the next club meeting to show us.
