Hey I rode by our wooden troll today! There are several more around the Puget Sound area. One of these days I'll track them down

yes I have ridden by that ball so many times.No bike on this trip to Portland to see our daughter, but I'm assuming that @fooferdoggie has ridden through the Williams Avenue shopping/art/food district where we're staying.

One of many indicators of the heavy cycling presence in this neighborhood. The adjacent bike lane carried a steady stream of bikes of all kinds.

The nearest supermarket back home has 1 bike lockup. This one has at least a dozen.

A potential ebike fix just a few blocks down from our VRBO. Is this saying that if I return one of these bikes to a BIKETOWN station, I can ride indefinitely for free?

A neighborhood brewery sporting one of the area's many colorful storefront murals. Someone should paste an "Eschew Obfuscation" bumper sticker on the door.
Your photo has reminded me of some things we saw on our August 2021 e-bike trip with brother to Kłodzko Valley in Poland, an exciting huge valley almost surrounded by mountains.One of the trailheads I regularly frequent, has no cell service.

"This slightly famous train station on the way back." But can you pronounce it properly?Not much cycling, but I went for a ride from Holyhead to find where I learnt to scuba dive forty years ago.
It's somewhere next to this castle.

I'd found out they long abandoned the dive centre and the attatched hotel
All overgrown and collapsed.

This was the entrance, and you stepped straight out the back into the sea

I can't believe I learned to dive in a Welsh coastal castle and didn't really notice at the time
Visited this slightly famous train station on the way back.

I can sing the name."This slightly famous train station on the way back." But can you pronounce it properly?
You mean the Conwy Castle?Us Saxons didn't build those castles to start speaking Welsh
