So much safer for 'man's best friend' …
Assuming that pooch is of the male persuasion.

Homemade strudel ...ooh!
Made a quick 18 mile loop between the rain showers. My turnaround point was Amado, between Tucson and Nogales. The Longhorn Bar and Restaurant has about the most unique entryway I've seen. It was getting dark as the next wave of rain was rapidly approaching so no time to enjoy the amenities inside.

Blocking the riverside bike path …
The best part of fifty years ago Jen and I, together with hundreds of other migrants, stepped off a P&O liner, the Oronsay, at Melbourne's Station Pier. We'll skip the return voyage.

Spotted on the Monterey Bay... very tame and used to being around people for food.

I am in the process of converting to total HI - VIS. Next step is to spray the whole bike yellow. (-:

I have a solution for that here:
New Vado 5
I got pretty excited about the BH Atom X until I saw they don't make it in XL (I'm 6'4"). That yellow Vado color a couple years back was AWESOME! I definitely would have bought it. I'm not really a big fan of the gloss black on my bike. It looks okay, but I like Stefan's grey much better. I...

Careful the snowman does not catch fire! He has lost a lot of weight since he quit smoking and drinking.

Trivia #1 of 2 : Crossing State Lines …
Today's ride was south of the border and, because it is high summer, this involved changing time zones both going and returning.
Wonderful! It's New Year so party like crazy in Tweed Heads (NSW) and see the New Year in then, after some cool refreshment under the stars, cross the road (perhaps with assistance) into Coolangatta (QLD). It's 2019 again. Wait impatiently and see the New Year in again. Oh, what fun. (I arrived too late.)
Now, to be serious (no, not really). Did you know… there are only three countries in the world (NZ, Samoa and Paraguay – you might need to look them up) that are currently using Daylight Saving/Summer Time. To these you can add parts of Chile and Australia. (Blame Wikipedia if I'm mistaken.) Daylight Saving just isn't popular south of the Equator! In Queensland any savvy politician knows that uttering those two words could spell 'oblivion'. But it's popular in New South Wales, causing quite a bit of confusion… and fun.

The whole west coast of North America including British Columbia wants to end changing the clock, but it still has not happened because it will take an act of congress ...bahhh! Anyways It is 2020 and the weather report gives me a 3 hour window before the rains return. Just keep pedaling! https://www.google.com/search?q=wea...3j69i57j0l4.2615j1j8&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

Trivia #2 of 2 : Crossing State Lines …
Whenever I cross a state boundary there are typically two messages from those who have deemed themselves to be in charge…
What is this inexcusable wickedness that won't be tolerated in the Sunshine State? I've left a clue on the sign – not in the tiny writing at the bottom, so don't strain your eyes.
Locals and those who have looked up the answer on Street View, please consider yourselves sworn to silence for the moment.

- Welcome to our State.
- We'd like to take this opportunity to reminder you… threat, threat, threat!
