Nice Cannondale, I had one just like it for many years.  Loved it, it was my city wheels, went everywhere in all kinds of weather......ahhhhh good memories.

What brand of cleats have you got on it?

How far does it go on a charge Bob?

It depends on which mode you're in, Pete. In eco mode it should be good for a bit over 100km, but in Turbo mode I think you'd be lucky to see 40km. 😉

@Tango I like it. Looks pricey!

It wasn't too bad price wise for an eBike, @Slowlycatchymonkey. Look up Cube Reaction Hybrid Performance 400. They're solidly made and use the Bosch drive system. The tracks round here are harsh, so it needs to be pretty solid to survive those! 😉

Hah, hah!!! I found you bastards!!!  Kind of like my parents when i was young, you keep moving hoping i dont find you?

 

anyways, Sunday was a fun dirt day!  Took the KTM out to see if it still ran (carbs instead of fuel injection makes for fun times).  Turns out, once you get some good fuel going thru it, its alright!

North of home is an area known as Carizzo Plains.  The little San Andreas fault runs thru it, but we dont worry about them trifles.   The main road thru is a mixture of asphalt and gravel, but the best part are the offshoot roads.  We probably spent about 3 hours putzing around in there, dropping bikes, etc.  Great time had by all, as we prep for a trip to Moab, UT in October.

sooo, you're saying that the web address is still adventuremotorcycles.net?

No.....the domain changed to motorcycleriders.net 5 months ago and you kept getting redirected here over that period.

So change your bookmark to www.motorcycleriders.net
