Show us pictures of where you ride your ebikes!

The weather has been unusually cloudy in California recently and it makes for a beautiful sunset ride... last night was spectacular.

If you look closely, you can see the coastal fog rolling over the Bay Area foothills in the distance.

Looks like your KOM, and all of your times, were disqualified on Strava.

Nope... I always change my ride to the Ebike category after every ride.
Let me know if you have found a way to permanently change the settings.

I got to ride in Pebble Beach yesterday. Last day of the lockdown there, which meant no tourist cars!

Here are some photos:

Pebble Beach is certainly one of the most beautiful places on earth. Love the 3-D video... tell us more about the app.

I am planning to bring my bike down and check out some of the local trails this month... any suggestions? What are you riding?

Unluckily, it redirects me to the home page of the service.

Unluckily, it redirects me to the home page of the service.

You have to give it a few seconds for his ride to load and displace the homepage.

You folks at noticing that if you hit the "Play" button (triangle icon), you see a 32x or 64x (actually controllable) 3D view of the ride, with photos I took along the way, right?

And while it's moving, you can drag the viewpoint and zoom level around. Doesn't have 3D buildings, but it's still pretty cool I think.

The App is from a motorsports company in the US called Polaris. It's made for off-roading or snowmobiling. Since it's free to join, however, you can use it with any vehicle, even an eBike. It's got a really good database of trails, but again, for off road, not bicycles. You can plan a route on the web and download it to the app, but it doesn't show true bike trails like RideWithGPS, for instance. I like RideWithGPS because it'll both navigate you with clear directions and record, but the playback doesn't suck up the photos you took along the way, which is a feature I really like.

Most of the good rides down in the Monterey-Carmel area are along the beach. You can ride from downtown Monterey through Pacific Grove, into Pebble Beach, and into Carmel if you want. You can even pop up at the southernmost point of Carmel and take Hwy 1 to Point Lobos, or if you're brave, into Big Sur. The ride subset I posted starts in Pacific Grove, rides along Ocean View and into 17 Mile Drive Pebble Beach, then up into the hills - elevation about 900'. Instead of going up into the hills you can turn right and go into Carmel.

There's also a ride into Carmel Valley, which heads east up into the mountains. That's really pretty, but gets hot in the deep summer months.

Morning ride along the local trail. These gorgeous flowers were all over. Someone said they are phlox.
Then off to the grocery store.

Managed another post lockdown trip to western Pennsylvania to ride the GAP Trail.

New signs posted to promote rider safety:



Strange place for a building facade?



Clear skies and calm wind on top of Big Savage Mountain. Fine by me but not doing the wind turbines any good:



The Salisbury Viaduct never disappoints:



Morning mist escaping from the Pinkerton Tunnel:

I came across a few hikers on the top of the mountain... good to share the trails

Ride around the canals and lake near where i live in the north west of England.

Evening ride at dusk... with a bit of Alpenglow.

Baby geese headed to the river. Almost grown, not so baby anymore.

Another sunset ride.

Nancy and I got in a great ride yesterday. I finally have my Allant back with a working rear hub and fell in love all over again. What a great, lively and fun bike to ride. 35 miles in tour out in the countryside, stopping by roadside stands for fresh shortbread and local strawberries. Some homemade cookies and lemonade along the way.

Nice ride... the weather looks perfect!

I'm jealous. That's a beautiful scenic ride...
