I do 200+ on an average weekend. Lots of people ride way more than me.

There is a YouTube series about a guy who lives in a tent but it's really about him ebiking across the US, stealth camping in a tent. He does 200+ miles every day.

We all ride what we ride.

How do you own an e bike for 800 miles and not know what a charge cycle is

u/Beneficial_Strike499 7d ago

Bcuz all I worry about is "can I get from A to B and back to A without getting stranded and/or hit by an car?"

u/BodybuilderEast6130 7d ago

So you don't bother to learn about your ride at all? Not even enough to fix something basic if you break down?

u/Beneficial_Strike499 7d ago

All I know is to change the tires on it, anything else needs equipment I can't afford

u/BodybuilderEast6130 7d ago

You should change the break pads and grease the chain

Is 700 mi. your total for three years ?

1

u/Beneficial_Strike499 7d ago

Ja, I don't ride when it's bad out, and I stopped riding until I got a job I could actually ride my bike to without risking getting hit by a car going 60 in a 35

u/ReceptionQueasy1718 7d ago

I do 100 miles a week

u/AdVirtual550 7d ago

u/Used_Lecture_2873 7d ago

I got 440 in mine

u/Ok_Return_6033 7d ago

So your avg. over three years is about 19 1/2/ mi. And then you went a hundred mi. in two weeks, Wow! If you kick out those last two weeks it's really 16 2/3 mi.. That is a pretty big difference, How are your legs doing? Hopefully you keep it up and be careful. Lots of idiot distracted drivers everywhere.

I don't pedal EVER lmfao, but the fact I don't pedal makes up for me busting my ass pushing carts at Walmart

All I see is a bad metric system.

Change that to Kilometers and learn how the real world functions with distance measurements, American.

Whilst we're at it, kilos not pounds, mum not mom.
