Gegen Platten am Rad kann ich robustere Reifen und Schauminlays kaufen, Flicken, Pumpen, Tubeless versuchen.

Gegen die Bahn die mich mal wieder stranden lässt kann ich nichts tun.

Da radel ich lieber, grade mit Elektro auch mal 30 Kilometer.

Ich war nur einmal in Berlin. Straßenbahn dort war wirklich gut.
Wer sich nicht zweimal überlegt ob es das Auto sein muss, oder es nicht die Öffis oder das (E)bike, Roller, Motorrad tut, ist dort selbst Schuld.

Unfortunately i´ve never been to Australia.

Closest i´ve come to Australia is the Kangaroo leather in my motorcycle gloves.

I think if i was particular about coffee it would motivate me to make it myself even more.

I got a french press cause it´s cheap, small and easy.

But nothing easier than being a snob about it with one, too. Perhaps get a grinder too. Still can be done at home and the most elaborate ritual is gonna be faster than driving some place.

I have ground coffee and a french press. And a currently broken water kettle but i got pots and a stove so that works.

Like.

Going out to get a coffee is first world problems squared, we need a new word for that.

ah fuck. The cause is a very loose bottom bracket or something. Dunno how to fix that. This bike is very, very old. The pedals can basically move left and right a bit, so the chainring moved into the guard.

I thought the guard was just bent but this is worse.

Eh. i think there are more effective METHods.

Or maybe that only works for swimming.

Sonntag morgen. 20 Leute in Kandel gestrandet. Schienenersatzverkehr 40min verspätet und fuhr gar nicht ans Ziel. 3 stunden später endlich der Zug heim.

SCHIENENERSATZVERKEHR: when they promise you get a bus. Then that bus takes 30min longer and doesn´t go where you need to.

Fuck deutsche bahn.

Gravaa is cool. But not an option for my cargobike. If i were to built a premium, for me right now utterly unaffordable- travel bicycle, i´d want to use that for sure.

I do wonder if ordinary electric pumps continue trying to reach the pressure i dialed in if it goes down again slowly.

jiminiplywood.bsky.social @jiminiplywood.bsky.social · 2d

Anyone got an #electricbicyclepump? I have a great stupid idea. Is there anything i´m not thinking of, besides battery life and size, when i think i could tape the pump to the (fatbike, solid spoke) rim and have it try to fill the tyre continously, making up for a small leak i can´t fix?

I ran out of the genuine interest to talk about things years ago. I felt like all is said. In germany the word for entertainment and a talk is the same(Unterhaltung). And. Yeah. Talk is now just usually entertainment and i don´t know how to. Unless someone wants to talk about how we´d fight zombies

to the end of a week with rotten luck in terms of transportation.

Good hard kick on the pedal freed this one. Made some funny sounds after. Gonna bend the guard outwards or remove it.

Hab heut morgen voll community erlebt. So geredet statt aufs Handy gestarrt.

Gemeinsam in der Pampa stranden und sich Sorgen machen um Bus, Taxi, was die Scheisse kostet, überhaupt, ohne Schlaf, das. Ja das vereint.

15 bucks for 2 cans of 400ml mind you. If you get one can of 75ml for 6 euro in the bicycle branded version, thats normal...so. Yeah.

One more flat and i might carry a fullsize pump and spare everything with me everywhere on the cargobike

jiminiplywood.bsky.social @jiminiplywood.bsky.social · 2d

...

fuck it. It´s ordered. 15 bucks lost or not...
I held a pump with tyre patches in hand the day i had a flat. Thinking i got a pump. I got patches...somewhere. Could have maybe saved me. Or not.

spending money preventatively is not fun.

Does anyone know if antiflat spray- is different formula wise in the car version than in the bicycle version? It tried. It failed. Partially perhaps because 75ml is not enough for a fatbike tyre. It´s got a car valve.
If its the same...perhaps 400ml-carsize- could do ?

2 Schwalbe Supermoto X. tho i won´t be arsed to swap the front till that turns flat again. Might just ride around with the whole spare tyre on the rack.

1 tannus armour. Cause. Money. And the front is less drama to swap and if it´s floaty that wont matter much on the rear.

Hope both arrive speedy

jiminiplywood.bsky.social @jiminiplywood.bsky.social · 2d

Yeah.

So.

I´m getting that new tyre. And the tyre insert i think.

I literally dragged it home when the tube jammed into the brakedisc
