Hooked up, lol, with a few fellow cyclists this summer at the world's largest fishing lure made by the Thompson Pallister Bait Co. based in Lacombe, AB.

Fall colours

Passed this while riding Pennsylvania's D&H Rail Trail on Thursday:

It's an old railroad mile marker with a decorated hard hat on top. Not sure of the meaning.


The fall colors were just about peak:

Here are a few interesting photos from riding to the Whalers Cove at Point Lobos last weekend.

The wood cabin was originally constructed by Chinese fishermen in 1851 to process the whales.

I had trouble getting a good pic but this is a old cemetery around 1800 or so and right next to it only a chain link fence away is a grade school. the rest is on the other side of the main Road. this in Gresham Oregon along the Springwater corridor path

Brings back lots of memories from diving along the Monterey coastline. Pt. Lobos reserve and Whalers Cove was a favorite! Thank you.

Glad to help. The entire Northern coast of California is beautiful... Pt. Lobos and Big Sur are my favorite rides.

Here's a recent collection of images that I took during a casual morning ride in the town of Jasper, AB last month. Spotted this Electra 3 spd displayed in someone’s front yard.

6015 on Static Display

Pulled from visit-jasper.com

‘Jasper’s Locomotive 6015 is one of 16 mountain-type engines built by the Canadian Locomotive Company of Kingston, Ontario in 1923 and used by Canadian National in fast freight and passenger service. It pulled the Canadian version of the Orient Express, a passenger train with exquisite wood-paneled cars and fine antique furnishings. This type of engine chugged through the natural beauty of Alberta at 100 miles per hour around the rugged Canadian Rockies. It needed about 10,000 gallons of water and 17 tons of coal. By the late 1950s, the steam engines were replaced by diesel locomotives. The Locomotive 6015 stands today as the mark of a time long gone by but never forgotten.’

Cool Electra 3 bike... is the shark paint job OEM or custom?

I believe it’s an OE paint scheme (Tiger Shark) as I've seen ads for the same cruisers online. The leather accessories are a nice touch though.

Truly. A nice one-off I'd say. Never thought to check if the pedal was used as a handle for the gate.

Not exactly ebikes but an interesting use of bikes and rails. Hopefully no trains coming!
Maybe the first rails to trails??
