Personally, I think a bike would help the pic but I like bikes more than drab institutional buildings.

It was a quick snap taken during a ride. It's not meant to use on a brochure. :rolleyes:

I guess that lengthy list of things you can't do in addition to wrapping handlebars also includes photography.

No cows at the milk processing plant.

He posted a picture of the mismatched-wheeled bike not long ago.

Redundant information.

I'll post a picture of a bike with wheels that match next time.

Human-powered road bikes only, please.

We'll see about that.

Long day for the group destination ride, but fun. Gearing could have been better - I had to stand most of each climb - but it wasn't horrible. I also made it across all four stream crossings without falling or putting a foot down in the water, so that was nice, too. Oh, and we met a barn kitten at the pizza farm -

Or move your clocks back when you go east?

There are separate forums for eBikes and fat bikes.

You should tweet about it.

I thought this thread was for fat ebikes primarily.

No, that makes sense. We started out before Standard Time with Noon being whenever the sun was directly over head where you were so "Noon" would not be at the same instant across any city of reasonable size.. It was hard enough to get people to agree to it being "noon" at the same time across ~900 miles.

LesterOfPuppets 10-03-21 10:27 PM

I'm happy to report I made it up the local hill tonight in 39x23, and didn't even puke.

Better luck next time.

I got as far as doing all the updates on the laptop top and then updating zwift yesterday. This where I stopped. Maybe I'll zwift today. Supposed to rain most of the day here.

You can learn a lot on Twitter.


Shouldn't Taco Day be on Tuesday, though?

I need to start setting my alarm. Slept until 7 this morning. Being cloudy didn’t help.

I overslept this morning, also. Darkness.

The cat gets me up most mornings. She has been sleeping with us since Heidi moved out. She knows to stay on my side of the bed and leave mrs datlas alone, so it's working out well.

Ha! With that multi-quote error, it almost looks like you're disapproving of the keen cycling in my gif! :lol:

WhyFi 10-04-21 06:21 AM

I woke up "late" at 7am, too, being tired from yesterday.

Also woke with a sore shoulder from a tumble yesterday. No, not while riding, but while playing soccer with my kids afterwords. At least I didn't break my collarbone - that might have been ironic, but I'd have to refer to Alanis to be sure.
