Nothing wrong with my hearing, it's just that music doesn't move me like it used to. Sad.

Sometimes I feel the same way about movies.🤔

Having the choice of your two bikes, I would use the CRF for those trails. 

I could also use my Duke 390, but I would change my tires from street to enduro tires first. 

Or I would buy a small dirt bike if I would live in that area. 

Those aren't my two bikes. I did buy a small dirt bike or a small bike/scooter I could use on unmade roads/goat tracks. It has trail tires.

As pedestrian safety is the responsibility of drivers and pedestrians, you must learn how to protect yourself from harm while walking on or near public roadways. Having the right-of-way at marked and unmarked pedestrian crossings does not mean you are safe. Irresponsible and distracted drivers may not always yield to pedestrians when they should. As a pedestrian, if you are involved in a collision with a car, right-of-way laws will not protect you from death or injury.

Quote

 

You must observe the following safety rules when seeking to cross the street at a marked or unmarked pedestrian walkway.

• Always wait for pedestrian traffic signals to display WALK or green before attempting to cross the road, where traffic signals are present.
• Do not assume that a green traffic signal means you can cross the road safely. Look right and left to check that all vehicles have come to a stop, as not every driver will obey the rules.
• Do not step out onto a pedestrian crosswalk to force a vehicle to stop. If the driver of that vehicle is unable or unwilling to stop, you could be injured or killed.
• Remain on the curb until it is safe to cross. Vehicles traveling too close to the curb could strike you if you wait on the street itself.
• Always yield to vehicles driving across the intersection when the pedestrian signal reads DON’T WALK or is red

Let me see if I understand. Military professionals sworn to defend the country have been given some public funds by elected amateurs. Then these professionals have not given the funds to a third party who don't defend the country. 

They may have given others surplus old equipment they don't need anymore and will use the funds to replace the donated stuff with new stuff so they can defend the country?

but now, at nearly 82 I find I prefer peace and quiet.

I have Radio Caroline playing in the background.

Not sure I'm "listening" but it is there.

This giver her a top speed of about 30 kph. Wouldn't want her going faster than that with her lack of skills. Rarely goes further than 1 kilometer. Good enough.

For us it is the hills. To the main market occasionally is 2.5kms.

Here's your sign🤔

Even if somehow electricity was taxed to the point where ev cost the same per km to run as an ice the ev still has better performance

The title of the thread is "Reality". EV's are one-trick ponies. 0 to whatever acceleration is their only trick. Or the only trick people keep harping on about. 

GWM Ora is quicker away from the lights but slower to 100kph/60 than a Suzuki Celerio.

Would it be more fun or would it just be for nefarious purposes? There is already a "darker" forum?

So don't have a debit card on the account and pay for everything using your phone app and QR scans.

 

Or

On your phone banking app deactivate your debit card when it's not in use.

Or

Have a dedicated prepaid Visa debit card which is only used for online purchases or payments.

Just look at the rail transport, the lack of cargo transport, the choked highways, the lack of law enforcement, traffic safety, there are so many factors. 

All in the three or four main cities. Outside them is is generally OK.
