I need to get some gravel bike tires. 25c where a bit sketchy.

Yeah, it blew my mind that the Toyota Mirai's hydrogen tanks are pressurized to 10,000 psi. To store a decent amount of hydrogen you need compress it to crazy high pressure or cool it with liquid helium or some other exotic extreme cooling. The thing about hydrogen that always confused me is that hydrogen is very energy dense but it physically not very dense.

I bet those taste extra good outside in the cold.

Not gonna lie seeing the video makes me want to try it. It looks way cooler in motion with the front wheel lean.

I agree! I really want a LiFePO4 ebike but I haven't seen one yet. Mostly because of the 3000+ charage cycles those cells can take. I'm guessing they aren't popular with manufactures because of the lower capacity. It hard to sell a bike with 1/3 the range or giant bulbus battery. Also they can't sell you a new bike or battery in 3 years when the shitty NMC cells wear out.

There is some info here about the hike: https://hikearizona.com/decoder.php?ZTN=1411 I also hiked from the oracle ridge trail. It is on national forest land and open to the public as far I know. The writing on the wall in the back says "if must use keep clean"

Hey! It's on edge of the Ironwood national monument down Mile Wide road. Cool seeing someone else from Tucson here.

They have this old fountain with cactus growing out of it. It's great

The Catalina Mountains in Tucson AZ. Also known as Mt. Lemmon

Good luck getting near it. It has a mote of dead cholla cactus spines around it. They are very stably with micro barbs so they rip your skin when you pull them out.
