I have had some negative experiences with Amazon, generally when it's involving 3rd party shipping it, usually then it's from china add a month. when I goof like that I find someone else on amazon with the item here in the US, cancel first order because how long it will take, purchase 2nd item...

I agree with you 100%. When I first heard of Kratom, it wasn't from within my spheres of friends, and trusting the internet....well let's just say I am an adult, been around lol. Few years back I was out of state visiting friends I got into a pretty tech savy conversation with a friend of...

I had a spinal cord injury at my job in 2017...still getting denied by the govt for disability. I live with chronic pain from nerve compression, and can't seem to find any pain management doctors that accept medicaid and will write prescriptions for people who have provable medical conditions...

Nice trike, I built one out too...Are fat tires a requirement there in the desert?

I have thought about selling my little 2010 transit connect xlt all camper-ized I would like a small pickup instead...got into recumbent trikes and need something that can tow. But if ya sell your vehicle you need to be able to afford to buy the next one lol

I own 4 lot's and a little bachelor's pad in the Poconos' Mountains! Sadly I am staying with my elderly totally unappreciative mother in NJ. I so look forward to snowbirding from Nov 1st to May'ish lol.

I am sure my little transit connect would much rather pull something like the VW is towing... Wish they had more trailers like that, I have other friends that camp on the weekends and are getting too old to set up a tent but too poor to buy a rig and trailer...a simple setup is nice. I am land...

If you are up to the idea of pulling a 4x8 harbour freight style trailer stretched to 5x9' I saw a canvas bowtop style truckbed tent for around $450. I have a 2010 transit connect but I also have my solar electric recumbent trike...https://www.tnttt.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=44671&start=15 I am...

It's true, this is a "fringe" group, and most of the people here are reasonably decent individuals on their own...but sometimes ya get the "fringe of the fringe groups"...I just smile and try to back away when I find them.

sadly we only live so long and first it comes out for the military then a few years later to the rich, then eventually to us regular folks so might be a few years unless you do it yourself

my back wouldn't be keen on setting up and breaking down a tent everyday. I kind of like this one https://www.blessthisstuff.com/stuff/vehicles/cycles/bicycle-camper-trailer-by-kamp-rite/ with solar on top

if you like to tinker, then it isn't a big deal and it can save you some gas by using the ebike and a trailer for heading into town for supplies. I do it because I enjoy the exercise and the motor solves the hill problem so it is all fun!

This is my 2nd DIY EV. The first was a folding aluminum mountain bike with a 1500 watt Bafang mid drive motor. I had a spinal cord injury a few years back and sitting was uncomfortable so went the recumbent trike route! I was more then happy with previous motor so I installed the same Mid...

Thanks! I have to admit other then the fact he is a pretty smart breed and very empathetic which brings it's own issues at coming up on 10 months old he has had 15 "accident's" I live with chronic pain from a spinal cord injury and use medical marijuana for pain relief. I can't smoke in the...

When I first got Jack, the plan from day 1, was that I wanted a friendly dog companion to take with me anywhere and not be the owner of "that dog" that was barking at everyone who passed by. In your own fenced in yard let the dog's run free. Everywhere else, they need to be leashed for their...
