Thanks!

It's not the brand of the beginner kit, it's the bait you use.

In the lower Ohio Valley, there is a bait called a popeye (made by Cabin Creek Baits in Winchester KY) that when baited with a wax worm just destroys bluegill. I will rig it with a very small clip on bobber and no sinker.

With this rig it doesn't matter whether you use a stick, fishing pole, or just throwing the line with your hand, you will catch a bunch of bluegill

Will I save money by just going to the pharmacy with a list and picking up all the things in a kit and putting them in a waterproof tackle-box?

It is better to pick them up individually. When you purchase the kit, it doesn't come with enough sizes, quantities etc. You will pay more by buying singly, but in the the long run, it is well worth it.

Considering purchasing an electric bike kit. My main objective is it must be inconspicuous(I don't think their legal in NY?) and be able to tackle a 3mile hill on a 10mile trip to where I could recharge it. I think the kit less conspisious with the battery pack consealed in a back pack over the rear fender or saddle bags?

Personally I don't care much for motorised bicycles unless dealing with disabilities. A fit rider can usually ride about as quickly and for longer distances.

A kit is usually a better option since the motor can be removed with reasonable ease. And you can still ride the bike with it off. There are many different types of kits. Friction drives. Hub motors and one's that utilise the drive chain.

The friction drives tend to wear out your tyres quickly. The hub motors are a bit expensive and do not run efficiently at all speeds. The drive chain type are quite efficient and work through your gears so are more flexible. These ones are claimed to be greater than 95% efficient.

I know of similar designs but I don't think they are available in the U.S.

Still they are better than a car.

Bicycle and Pedestrian laws in the State of New York

MOTORIZED BICYCLES
Section 2268. Motor-assisted vehicle. Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, a vehicle which is primarily designed to be propelled by human power shall not be entitled to registration as a limited use vehicle because of the addition of a motor. The commissioner shall determine whether any vehicle is primarily designed to be propelled by human power.

The commissioners discretion. Here is a proposed bill that seems to outline the guidelines .You would have to be unlucky to get booked if you follow these.

??????NOT PASSED YET ??????

Section 1 of the bill adds a new Section 102-c to the vehicle and traffic law, defining electric assisted bicycles as:

A bicycle with two or three wheels which has a saddle and fully operative pedals for human propulsion, and also has an electric motor.

However, the electric motor should not have a power output of more than one thousand watts, and should be incapable of propelling the device at a speed of more than twenty miles per hour on level ground. The electric motor should also be incapable of further increasing the speed of the device when human power alone is used to propel the device at or more than twenty miles per hour.

Section 2 adds an exception in section 125 of the vehicle and traffic law to the statutory definition of motor vehicle for electric assisted bicycles.

Section 3 adds a new section 1240 to the vehicle and traffic law, making the rules, regulations and provisions of the vehicle and traffic law applicable to bicycles applicable to electric assisted bicycles; makes the federal equipment and manufacturing requirements for bicycles or motor driven cycles applicable to electric assisted bicycles; and adds the following operational and safety requirements for electric assisted bicycles: electric motor disengagement criteria; all operators and passengers are required to wear bicycle helmets; and no-one under the age of 16 may operate or as a passenger on an electric assisted bicycle and establishes the civil fine and enforcement procedures for failure to wear a helmet.

Section 4 is the effective date.

Is it one of those 6 to 8 week deals? I'm supposed to get a free tackle bag, will it ship via UPS or USPS?

It takes a while for the tackle bag to come. I got my kit with the patch, stickers, card.. that stuff in a few weeks. I got my tackle bag after 8 weeks and it's NOT a tackle bag - I used it to carry my lunch today. If you're waiting on the tackle bag to carry your gear in.. don't wait, just buy one.

I personally blame the Spurs players for not putting the effort to mark Howard, it was amazing, he was not tackled the whole game. u gotta question Harry's tactics on this one.
SWP lets see if you feel the same way when we play them on Wednesday and the same thing happens.

i was thinking the same thing...

and i never knew that you could play a game without a ref =|

i say that because i didnt see a ref the whole game.

I purchased a used ford motor home that uses R12. I'm told I can convert it with a kit. Am I getting in over my head or should I try to tackle this project? Is it necessary to "flush" the old system first? Thanks for any good advice.

This is a fairly affordable conversion comparatively speaking, given the cost of R-12, but not one I would recommend for a DIY'er, or even a fairly good mechanic without the proper equipment. The system should be flushed and then vacuumed with an electric vacuum pump before filling with R-134.

I don't do much AC work myself anymore, but as best as I can recall, the compressor and orifice tube have to be replaced, along with the normal recharge procedures. Most of the rest of the original system is retained. Maybe $200-$300? But that's just a rough guess.

Last I heard, R-12 alone was running like $50 a pound, if you can even find it. Further manufacture or importation has been banned, and all that's left is what's left.
