A brief respite from biking.... ICELAND

It is lovely and traffic is NOT! That was why taking advantage of the bridge closure made a much more pleasant crossing of the lake. The Sammamish River Trail passes nearby St Michelle.

I have to admit, bike repair or swapping parts of not my thing. But by DRIVER, you don't mean the derailleur???? I would not mind giving my Creo and ME a bit better advantage on some of Seattle's hills.

Sounds like a weapon. My housemate once stepped on one of these found on a jogging path. It was definitely intended to wound. I guess they were used to slow down invading forces that were on foot. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caltrop

Around the north end of Lake Washington Longest in quite a while. 35.5 and about 1,700 feet of gain. Along the Interurban Trail and then east to the Burke Gilman Trail. Along Waynita Way into Kirkland. The Kirkland Connector Trail which has a few miles of gravel. Northrup Way to the 520 Bike...

The only thing I change is bike computer batteries and that is not always simple! ;)

I really like this picture. Thanks for sharing.

Is that a picture you took or from an advertisement? How does one balance that load. If one of those kids is a bit less disciplined and starts leaning.....

@RabH WOW!!!! Stunning trip. But let's quibble - 49-50!!!!

Give it up and DEMAND a refund. Or charge them a monthly rental fee as you would pay if you rented a bike from them for three months and counting!

I really like Schweinshaxe (ham hock). On one trip, I found one in a "fast food" deli type place. Pre-cooked. Brought it back to the hotel room and tossed it on the heater. My roommate was not impressed!

Probably somewhat easier than fiddling between the legs/crotch playing with the tube, ahem, top tube!

Good luck. I have so many locks and frankly don't really trust any of them which is why I have so many: "This one might be better, no this one, no that one....." I have the Abus Cafe on my Creo but generally don't leave it alone. A coffee shop about three weeks ago as I stepped into the...

Just happened to check the ODO on my year and a half old Creo.

Nothing Bruegel-est about my trip!!! WWII exhibit at Reagan Presidential Library somewhere in over populated southern Calif

It also affects his American friends, too! :eek:

I like your experiment. What I have not ascertained is how it responds to approaching vehicles if you have it on BLINK mode. Blink uses a lot less battery. I know when the light is set for solid, it will blink to help alert rear approaching traffic. But if it is already on a blink mode, I...

And you had your own Tour De France pace golf cart! ;)

I presume that the EXTENDERS are threaded to match either Left or Right pedals? But as I found with my Creo after a bike shop screw up (no pun intended). They had accidentally reversed the cranks which reversed the pedals and I think would also reverse the pedal threads meaning that they...

In my paranoid dreams. But pranks do happen. Although, if I recall I can leave the key in anyway. Frankly, I'd always preferred combination locks since there was no key to lose. I would always keep my cable-combination locks locked so that I could only use it if I remembered the...
