I tend to like the darker beer. I’m not a fan of the pale ales but some are good. I bought a 12 pack of Yuengling Black And Tan 2 or 3 months ago and still have a couple in the fridge. I‘ve just cut back and trying to loose a little weight. When we travel I like visiting the local micro...

Stefan, thanks for reminding me why I have a car and a pickup. Nice job fixing the chain! +4f here this morning, windchill -15f. No riding for me no matter how warm I could dress. I’ve worked outside in this weather and every so often we’d have to get in the truck to warm our hands.

I knew someone who got downright mean to unwanted calls. Say someone calls about a car warranty. He’d tell them his wife got killed in a car crash yesterday. He was single at the time but it sure made them say sorry and hang up right away. Someone was trying to sell him siding for his house...

I read up on them, I fell in love with it until I saw the price. It appears to be a very high end e bike, a lot of power a features. The weight? It looks like about 65 pounds to me. My Trek weighs about 50 pounds so that weight doesn’t scare me. Take the battery out and it will weigh less...

Yeah yeah, rub it in.

It’s 2 pm here, air temp is 15f with a windchill of -3. I think I’ll add another piece of wood to the fireplace and stay inside.

Nice!

Can I get your phone number. There is this extended warranty for your car I’d like to talk to you about.

I rode 14 miles today. Cloudy and breezy but 50 degrees so I took advantage of it. It’s suppose to cool off so it’ll be a while before I can ride again. This is an old cemetery I ride by on occasion.

Pictures of where I ride my e bike? This is just out my front door in Illinois. 😉

It was unusually warm here today, 62f. I rode 16 miles and took a picture of a common sight, a semi truck loading up with grain to haul to market.

@Jeremy McCreary , nothing probably changed with your bike, your just a couple of days older. As I’ve gotten older something always hurts a little bit. Sometimes I can trace it back to something I did, sometimes not.

We finally got a warmer day here in Western Illinois, about 54f felt like summer. I rode an easy going 12 miles. There isn’t much to see around here this time of year but barren farm ground so I took a picture of the Colchester library as I rode through town. It’s kind of a neat old building...

Yeah I miss David’s pics also. I like seeing pictures from other countries.

Here‘s a snow picture. We’ve had roughly 24” of snow total. The first batch melted and so did the second. Seasonably cold here now but we’re suppose to get a warm up next week, maybe I can get a short ride in. This picture is about a month ago.
