  • I’ve had migraines and anxiety, but not often at the same time. From personal experience, they aren’t usually related. I have had a panic attack that felt exactly like a heart attack though, so I know that anxiety can cause many physical side effects.

    I’d recommend getting medical advice even if it’s just for the headaches. There may be anxiety involved, but I don’t think it’s just anxiety.

    If it is just anxiety, then you’ll be able to relax more easily knowing that there is nothing physical to worry about.












  • Braaap Moto E 8000W. Absolutely loving it.

    The LED speedo is useless during the day, so I’m making a second mechanical one as a backup. The acceleration is fine, but if you have the money I’d recommend going with something slightly quicker. I won’t filter through traffic because I’m not confident I can accelerate fast enough to be safe.

    The battery meter is not to be trusted, but it’s no worse than my old 250cc with no fuel gauge. Just fill up every day, and don’t go more than 120km.

    I’ve heard that Zero has some issues with right to repair. I have no idea if it’s any worse than a company that went into liquidation over a year ago.

    If you’re looking to go electric regardless, I don’t think you’ll get anything else this good for this cheap. I have no regrets, and I’m not selling it anytime soon.



  • One had already parted ways at the previous town, and the other stayed with me for an hour and helped push for a while.

    I told them to leave when I decided to call to roadside assistance, but after 2 disconnected calls I decided I could keep pushing for a bit longer. I was already past the steepest bit of the hill at that point, and just barely outside the cheaper zone for roadside assistance, so an extra 1km would have saved me about $50 (100AUD). It was tiring, but no worse than a hard gym workout, so I kept going.

    There really wasn’t much else my friends could have done, and I’m very grateful for what they did.
