Gliderrider

Taking my 1st longer ride in the mountains accompanied by my two sons on electric unicycles. I’m right at the weight limit of this bike. At the end of the ride I was still 4 bars out of 5. I still got a nice workout. Using the aftermarket’cloud 9’ $30 seat was a huge improvement and very easy to install. A very fun ride. Can’t wait to get back out there!

This is what it was like in Arnold, California. About 100 miles west of the epicenter. Things didn’t move around much. It was a rapid high frequency almost buzzing effect. We could feel it on our feet. And you could hear it in our house. Not like those rolling side to side earthquakes from the Bay Area.

This is an instrumental of mine craft music done by my son

My Son won’t post this because he says it’s not ready. But I wanted to get it out there in some form for family and friends or to whom ever. Bob Dillan cover song.

My son’s version of the Beatles long time hit ‘Yesterday’

Testing out the MFJ-1899t portable antenna using a camera tripod and Elecraft’s AXT1 tripod adapter. Using a tape measure for counterpoise radial.

Taking a break at a rest stop near Mt Shasta. Took a photo op. Thank you to the hwy patrol for not citing us riding against traffic.

This is about the only CB handheld with SSB. It’s got it’s quirks, but I’m glad we have it. This video is a unboxing with initial bumblings figuring it out. I’ve wanted this rig for a decade. I only wished it had cw, for the 10 and 12 meter. So I waited. Then they disappeared. Every year or so there would be a few pop up here and there. I found this rig being sold from England on eBay. The antenna can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VF563FB/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_7FwVFbJQQAVNQ?_encoding=UTF8&psc= I get nothing from this so feel free to use any source. The antenna is impressive but is too heavy. Don’t go hiking with this connected! My location is in the mountains of California. Not CB friendly for local chatter.
