I experienced acute lower back pain after walking for 30+ minutes. I searched the whole internet to find a solution but only found advice saying, "if you have back pain, walk!" which was ironic since my pain occurred while walking. Then it dawned on me: I sit most of the day, cycle a lot, and drive my car, but I wasn't walking regularly. Now, I walk the dog for 40 minutes a few days a week, and the pain has disappeared!
windguru which is in part or fully based on crowd-sourced weather stations is already surprisingly accurate few days in advance, in many regions I tried. For a few hours forecast nothing beats the rain radar.
I wonder if they have already or will put some AI in their models.

When I began building bikes 10 years ago, Sheldon's site was already like an old book in the library.
It was a reference for older topics, such as recently when I needed to understand the internal workings of a Sturmey Archer hub to fix one.

If you like to tinker, buy a frame from Decathlon. Install a Bafang motor. Get Onirii MT4 brakes. Both are available on AliExpress. Use a 200mm front disc and 180 rear disc. Get a wheelset with a Sturmey-Archer hub, or normal wheels with a robust Shimano 9-speed transmission. And you have a very decent e-bike for around 1600€
