Background Exercises, No. 1

It's been stated before that this reference blog exists solely as a public service for the education of the witless individuals unaware of the BikeSnobNYC evolution. Indeed, it has been nigh three and fifty fortnights since the inaugural post, and yet questions still arrive with growing frequency. Therefore, in order to fulfill another 15 minutes of community service I've compiled a few archetypal RTMS posts. These "classics" contain some basic background information -

Time and tide wait for no man.

Is the fact that you are posed under a sign that says "randy" a subliminal message?

You may find older, nickel-based, battery types on the market for prices that are cheaper than lithium ion batteries. Things like being on the internet all of the time will also aid in running it down. Therefore, it is often suggested to use these batteries now and then and charge them regularly, when they are discharged.
