What did you do today?

It has been a busy day here. A friend of mine lost some white oak trees in his pasture during our recent storms. My better half and I took our small trailer over and cut the trees up and loaded them and brought them home for firewood. It took a number of trips. When we finished hauling and unloading the wood I changed out the seals on a hydraulic cylinder on my big tractor. That chore went well enough but when I finished with it the tractor was very slow starting. Guess what, the glow-plug controller has gone bad. It took 3 hours to get enough internet service to get a new part ordered. I have chicken thighs and mushroom gravy baking in the oven now. I will make some rice to serve it over.

Good golly what a busy day!

The MonoRacer 130E Fully Enclosed Motorcycle Aims to Redefine Personal Mobility

The MonoRacer 130E Fully Enclosed Motorcycle Aims to Redefine Personal Mobility Elena Gorgan The idea of making something that would be halfway between a bicycle or motorcycle and a car is not new; after all, the advantages of such a vehicle would be many for a large segment of the market. In the Czech Republic, inventor, fabricator and full-time pilot Arnold Wagner has been making one such vehicle since the late ‘80s. Since 2009, with a new partner, he launched the  PERAVES CZ  company, and they’ve been putting out these cabin-motorcycles dubbed MonoRacer since then. They probably haven’t sold more than a couple of hundred of them (90 of which were made before the 2009 partnership), but that could change as early as this month. As it turns out, PERAVES CZ has made an electric version of the MonoRacer, called the MonoRacer 130E, and it is now in the process of receiving EU-certification. The MonoRacer 130E is an electric motorcycle with a fully enclosed cabi...

Time to step away.

 Many who used to visit here regularly also would visit Kat's forum. Now she has opted to say goodbye. Why?

I think it's time for me to step away as well. Reasons are multiple. Mainly the loss of old friends, Susan and milo but others as well that, when I check their profiles, have been inactive for months, some for a year or two. Never heard why. Just stopped coming here or anywhere on Disqus. Lack of enthusiasm and participation has been evident as well. That includes my lack of enthusiasm. I am NOT blaming anyone. I can't advertise this forum so newbies are rare. Regulars have either gone away or drop in and leave a comment or two - often, it seems, out of habit. Back n forth conversations don't happen much any mor...
