Got out today for another short one. I only had to walk the first 50' over the ice.

With effort I was finally able to get out for a ride, atrophied legs and all...the most taxing part of my short journey of seven miles was the 500' walk down my icy gravel drive to the road. Light pollution is a real problem...it's often wasteful...misdirected...disturbs natural processes in...

Poland is running out of letters because Wales took them

My nifty heated vest does not work (on a bicycle) when there is five hundred feet of ice to traverse to the road which, in any case, is unplowed and only marked by the deer. Some wonderful birdlife stirring around my avian diner. the usual cardinals, the males a brilliant red in prep for mating...

I rode the last few days for the first time since the end of November. I got my bike back from my rediscovered mechanic. She replaced my long running tires (10K...back one slick) with a similar Schwalbe Marathon Mondial. She downloaded updates the last mech missed as well as replacing the newly...

You feel proud? What does that say about those in Spain. Do you imagine they are sunning themselves thinking...boy I wish I was up there with Stefan! I'm proud of him. Happy no damage to you or your bike...

Is that distant figure wearing a kilt? I blew up the picture as best I could.

I looked out this morning...18f...and thought to myself 'what would Stefan do?' and resolved to do the opposite and rolled back into bed.

Earnest yes...there is an importance associated with earnest

Snow last night in central VA and i wanted to try out the knee I had drained yesterday…better grab the rower from the barn…but not today

That script has been already done by Key & Peele…both in mid eastern garb hanging out on a corner…woman in hijab passes and they start excited guy talk about seeing (maybe) the flash of an ankle I’ll look for it

That transition is accelerating with the micro-mobility revolution. Soon, very soon there will be more compact power sources like solid state batteries. I don’t think there is any stopping it…think newly designed wheelchairs…I just hate to see kids on these powered devices including ICE dirt bikes.

This article was a bit overheated if not hysterical In regards to ebikes. I noticed at the bottom links to a Simon Cowell affair of something or other. I doubt the journalist knows of Cowells‘ experience(s) with dangerous ebikes (motorcycles)...

I got the new battery and the electronics work fine but...but the range is very disappointing. Very little more than my old battery with 10K miles on it. I used it my first ride in mid-60s f...the second in the 40s. similar results. I charged it overnight in my house after the second ride but...

Perhaps…but I look at the bottom frame…try as I might…I just can’t hear the Star Wars theme
