Did a ride on the GAP trail this week alongside the Western Maryland RR tracks and got a few shots of the newly restored Baldwin #1309 steam locomotive. The pix don't do it justice, the thing is huge! It's the largest steam locomotive in regular scheduled service in the US. The ground shook so much as it passed, I thought it was an earthquake!

Awesome! Upon seeing your pics, I lost my train of thought for a moment.
I can only imagine what it felt like.

I can’t recall how many times that I’ve driven past this section of the TC Hwy and never even realized there was a trail up there.
Razors Edge Trail at Canmore
An incredible trail with stellar views and exciting terrain that puts it in a class of its own. Razors Edge is like no other ride in the Bow Valley. It’s a BIG all mountain...

This is the first time I have seen these scooters for rent. I will have to try one sometime.

Snow Geese have arrived. I saw two large flocks that I roughly estimate around 750 -1000 birds. They are noisy!

Looked like a great fall day ride for both you and the rail bike participants. What a hoot that would have been to see you and your bike tied to the front and leading the group!

Situations like that happen to me more often than I would prefer. People always seem to freeze then make a hasty judgement call and panic whenever they’re confronted by a bike at a controlled intersection. They don’t seem to get the fact that cyclists also have to obey the same rules of the road and rights of way as they do. Many times, it’s usually a case when they think that by obliging, they believe that it’s a show of courtesy when in fact, they sometimes create more confusion for the person(s) on the bike.

I dont see it too often anymore. but it depends on what bike I am riding a more normal bike it would happen more my recumbent not at all. this was a tandem so a little odd. my headlight had to be shining right in their eyes and its bright.

If it's a rail trail, chances are they are remnants of some sort of railroad infrastructure.

Riding a recumbant bike in traffic requires more courage than I could ever muster ...gulp!
