o I sold it for pretty much less than half of what I paid for it and said good riddance to bicycles.
I haven't ridden my bicycles in a while. I kept my old 3-speed, hybrid, and mountain bike. But the area I live in has become more busy, especially in the warmer months, and there is more competition for space in the road. Plus with the pandemic people are taking up space on both sidewalks and the road shoulders to "social distance". I'm seeing more regional "out of state" registered vehicles and along with that comes drivers accustomed to certain driving habits. Add to that people using "golf carts" in beach areas and it's a real hoot. In my town they aren't supposed to be used on roads with speed limits in excess of 25 MPH and they are supposed to be registered with the town. That said, I still see them being used in areas they aren't supposed to be with speed limits in excess of 25 MPH. IMHO I think the only people who should be allowed to drive golf carts on the roads, or along the road shoulders should I say, are disabled or handicapped. The same people who require "Handicapped Parking" at shopping areas etc . . .. Otherwise everyone else can walk, run, or ride bicycles as far as I'm concerned. This golf cart thing is something that's been coming on in the last decade with momentum and now it's getting like "styling" with SUVs and cars. Who's got the "coolest" golf cart and has $$$. Ridiculous. They take up space along the road shoulder that is meant for pedestrians and bicycle riders. That said I have no problem letting them be used by the disabled. One more thing . . . they park them in areas where there is "no parking" for cars and some of these golf carts are like an old "Fiat Jolly". We don't have "gated" communities in my town so I don't know why this is allowed to continue.yes a guy i know who was a hard core bicycle rider was run over and killed in may by a drunk driver at 1230 in the afternoon.
I'm still seeing a lot of people using devices while driving. In Indiana they just passed a new law to deter the use of devices while driving. If you get caught with one in your hand while driving you are in deep dung. Only "hands free" communication devices are permitted. To manually use a device you have to pull over and park the vehicle.
Also I've notice a lot more "Tour de France" type riders. It's difficult to pass them sometimes when they are moving along at 30 MPH and the speed limit is 35 MPH or less and you've got a line of oncoming traffic. I prefer to get around town on a motorcycle or scooter in lieu of a car. It's just easier . . ..
Rant over.
Getting back to the XMax I checked the coolant level again yesterday on a cold motor and it was even with the "FULL" level mark on the center stand.
Still have to check tire pressures this weekend.
