SHOW us YOUR PIX here .... Odd, WeiRd ,UnUSuAl or EyE CaTchIng things from your rides

That bike with the little wheels and huge chainring looks like it has a gates belt. What happened to the seatstays? It will collapse. Only three teeth on the belt are in contact with the rear cog at any given time. The belt and cog will quickly fail.

Hope this is an isolated incident. A certain kind of cherry juice has become the finish-line recovery drink of choice for many pro cyclists. The last thing we need just days before the Tour de France is a cherry shortage.

They'll never take me alive!

I have 2 visions:

1. Your home surrounded by red-jacketed Mounties in those cool hats — the one with the bullhorn sounding every bit like Dudley Doright as he blared, "Put down your puns and come out with your hands up!"

2. A resurrected Gordon Lightfoot singing The Ballad of Dave Matthews — the folksong he wrote about what happened next.

I had double vision as well, until I got glasses...
1. Sorry to burst your bubble, but Mounties are very much into puns. I mean, even the name invites a pun, n'est pas? Please do watch more Dudley Doright!
2. I'm quite sure Gord could have easily re-arranged the words to "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" and applied it to my life and career.
Def not a hit though... 😒
 
I watched some random documentsry decades ago of a group walking through the Rockies and someone sang a song called 'my canadian home', it was very John Denver, but Ive never been able to track down the exact version.
The guy sang it with sn acoustic guitar aound a campfire, it could have been the original one..not sure.
It was freakin beautiful

I believe it's sung by Stompin' Tom Connors on his 1973 album " My Old Canadian Home"
Might not be the same version he sang on his documentary called "Across This Land With Stompin' Tom"
