      Thank you so much for the kind words! I can't imagine life without my Rescue Babies...so sweet and my little Oscar came with X-rays because some jerk hurt him...a man....it took him about 2 weeks to start liking me. I'm trying to figure out if I can get a cart to pull to give them rides just through my neighborhood. Keep up the great work!!

    Believe it or not, I just did some research on helmets and a motorcycle DOT helmet is only rated for 13.4 mph a better rated Snell rated helmet is rated for 17.9 mph and it appears the MIPS rated E-Bike helmets are about the same as DOT his all kinds of technical stuff like at that rating it’s only at a 30 degree impact not head on. So the moral of the story guys is wear a helmet but don’t have an accident. Bruce, thank you for the much-needed safety advisements, I see too many people out there not riding defensively. Amanda was driving Toby around without a helmet on. I saw her reflection on her cell phone.😉 hey Bruce, I see you’re almost up to 200 awesome job buddy.

      Thank you! YES----don't have an accident. I never knew that about the helmets---always good to wear one but yours is the best tip---don't have one. I never noticed Amanda.....but she was probably riding ultra slow because of the puppy. 😁

      I know...I am pleasantly surprised AND I have been getting emails and messages from people telling me that my videos have helped them with issues and they have been asking me questions ----AND that is making all of the hours I put into the videos worth it...I love helping people (why I became an attorney and later a REALTOR) so helping several people with bike issues, legal issues, real estate issues has been 100% Rewarding!! Thank you again for supporting me from the START!!!

      @@IMBruceECLECTIC I have to tell you I was laying in bed the other night thinking about all the time and money. I’m putting into this and thinking am I an asshole or is this all worth it? Sometimes you have to be reminded that you are making a difference and people enjoy what they are seeing and you are helping them. The other night was one of them. I almost took down the brake bleed video and gave up, but in the morning I felt better about it. and as the comments came in. I was good again.
      Dan from E-Bike Nation reached out and told me how awesome my videos are. I don’t know if they’re really that awesome, but it made me feel better. You know I try to do the studio bike fix videos for people that don’t know or don’t feel they have the ability to repair their own bike when sometimes it’s relatively simple. But I always have to have someone comment that I’m a freaking moron, and everybody knows how to do that. I just delete the comment, but it bugs me.
