This is a park in NZ, allegedly a shared moto trail but are there no consequences for stuff like this over in NZ?
The stupid questions thread.

There will be consequences for sure with that Brose motor. It has all the sealing abilities of a sunroof in a submarine.
That is still one level above deck cargo!

Apparently, he wants an e-bike with a zerode gearbox on it, he has a problem with changing gears in the mud.
Anyways, I'm not here to bag e-bikers out, just sick and tired of people thinking it's ok to trash trails because it's done elsewhere in the world.
The video is horrendous.

At least we know how thinner singletrack like trails evolve into wider paths. Can't see this being fun any way you cut it.

It's sad that they give people like this MTB access because in the end, they'll be the reason why everyone else gets hit with the banning stick.

You can't rule against fuckwittery unfortunately. Playing nice and common sense would say no, but.......

Being who he is
I got some Fox D30 elbow pads a little while back and threw away the packaging. Unfortunately they don't have care instructions on the tags like my Fox kneepads do. What is the best way to wash and care for D30 gear? lots of stuff says you can't bung them in the washing machine like other protective gear.

The mentality today seems to be I can get away with it so I'll do as I please, then when the trails close down they insult councils for closures.

Damp perspiration usually rots the stitching I've found, and they stench after a while too if you don't give them a good wash.

It's Not Easy Being Green
I've got D30 knees and elbows and have had both in the washing machine.
I don't wear the elbows all that often, but the knees I wear every ride. It doesn't seem to have had any negative impact on the D30 inserts.
I've still come off after washing them and they still did the job perfectly fine impact wise. They don't seem to have changed thickness or degraded at all either.

I have some old special release Japanese whisky in the cupboard. Does anyone know a good way to sell it? I'm not a collector so it's pointless in the cupboard (I had forgotten it was there until I recently moved stuff around to get the house painted). The alternative is I drink it.
Tricky. Licensing laws up here mean no open selling without liquor licence. You guys might be different. I ran out of brandy to cook with and cracked a sexy bottle of 20 year old Nippon brandy. Tastes ok.

Pretty sure we would have similar restrictions now you mention it.
Some of that Japanese brandy is quite good. I have a novelty size bottle from Nikka at home.
Wife's father was a brandy drinker and the bottle breached years ago for him. Complete waste for me so cooking it is. Pretty bottle. I have a couple of unopened boxed bottles of Bundy distillers #3. I will point out these were gifts. People pay $300 a bottle. It is an ok drink but man for $300 there are many many better options.

But you could sell me an expensive coffee and gift a bottle of whisky.

Indeed...bids for coffee now open.
Gift comes with age appropriate original box.
