If I lived there, I would dedicate my weekends to finding this person so that I could buy them a pint.
Look for someone who owns a sign printing shop. Those look expensive if you had to pay someone else to make them.

My wife’s Nissan Leaf (2011-2017) will fit a bike with both wheels on.
I can confirm that the (BMW) MINI convertible (R52) through 2008 will NOT fit one.

Here’s my video of the descent. Not exactly riveting content, but it is an absolutely beautiful road!
I’ll probably make a sped up version and add some music or something.

Here’s the slightly better photo off my real camera.

I didn’t go all the way to the lake because I was already cutting it close on time.Your photo is beautiful. It looks like it was a little hazier the day I went.

My wife rented an e-bike with 700C wheels, and most of the bike stands in West Glacier and Apgar Village were really hard to use with either of our bikes.This was one of the best, at the intersection of a bike trail and a walking/equestrian trail.

There are rules for Going to the Sun Road. Eastbound cyclists have to be off the west side by noon. Westbound cyclists have to be off the west side from 3-6 PM. I managed to make both cut-offs despite doing a one hour hike at the top to Hidden Lake Overlook.My legs were not happy with that hike.

In a year, we produce about
In a year, we produce about double what we use. The solar panels (one of the cheapest bits of the system) have a maximum output of 5 kWh. We just fitted as many as we reasonably could on the roof. The battery, (which was about half the cost of the cost of the install) is also 5 kw capacity, so gives you 2-3 hours’ supply in the evening after generating has stopped. Its maximum charging / discharging rate is about 2.5 kWh.
I think you’re consistently using kW-h when you mean kW, and vice versa.
Solar panel output is in kW for rate, or could be kW-h per day, which is again a rate (power x time / time.)
Battery capacity is in kW-h for how much it can hold, although there will also be a rating in kW for how fast it can charge or discharge, which is sometimes stated in terms of “C”, where 1xC is fully charging or discharging in an hour.

I just remembered I have Garmin tracks for all the running around on SeaDoos we did that weekend. We were definitely in and out of Canadian waters (east of the thick brown line.)
