Exactly. That’s what I have on my Surly LHT. Great double-kickstand. Especially after I dialed it in by trimming it down significantly to keep the rear wheel from having to raise too much.

If you’ve ever been on a loaded touring bike, you’d realize that kickstands are near essential. Mine has a double-kickstand that works like the center-stand on a motorcycle and it’s great. You don’t always have a place to safely lean your 80+lb loaded bike on a tour.

Presumably for many of the same reasons that people like having radios built into their cars rather than just listening to music from their phone’s speakers.

Nobody knows where they’ll be in 5 years. I certainly don’t. I’m not trying to predict the future here, just pointing out that this article seems to be willfully forgetting that Tesla has stated that it’s their medium-term goal to achieve FSD and that Musk’s idle twitter-musings are almost certainly in that context,…

Your complaints are all valid for people-driven cars, but it’s pretty clear from what Elon’s revealed so far that the goal is to get to true full-self-driving capability in their cars in the next few(?) years. In that scenario, asking about games like this makes a lot of sense since the car is driving itself and it’d…

Not that I think they should do it, but Ford would be best served by aggressively lobbying world governments to keep self-driving cars off the roads for as long as possible to buy themselves as much time as they can to get caught up on that tech. Without it, they’ll find themselves manufacturing cars in a world where…

Maybe if it’s got an outboard motor option...

This paragraph makes it sound like Lucid is going 400 miles with a smaller battery than the 390 mile range Model S, but later on you say this:

FYI, that ‘neat looking’ bike is a first generation Pake C’mute! They were pretty common around where I live and were generally considered to be a decent less-expensive alternative to the (very nice) Surly Cross Check cyclocross/commuter road bike.  Simple chromoly steel frame and easy to set up with whatever road…

It looks like the love child of a Nissan S-Cargo and a Mercedes-Benz Metris that was decorated by a toddler with a sticker book.

Now that’s what I call a fastback. And as someone who works at an aerospace company, pretty much nobody would care about this thing other than the limited number of weirdo car nerds (jalopnik readers).

This is a great idea. Healthcare workers could use some stress relief.  Smoky burnouts are the best medicine, after all...

LeMond! Nice.  The only american cyclist to win the Tour de France and not to have it taken away due to doping...

How about bringing the GTE to US shores?  I’d be all over a sporty plug-in hybrid hatch.

Agreed!

That looks WAY softer than most properly-inflated road tires are.  Count me in!

Too bad that Ferrari missed the obvious product placement tie-in with the 812. Oh, well.
