possibly could disassemble it and and dork discs on either side of the chain. it uses a cheap method to tension the first chain: a bungee cord attached to a pulley. There's not an easy way to add a conventional derailleur: the main drive line is a chopped strand fiberglass tunnel with some fixtures bonded/bolted in to guide the chain to a narrow single speed hub that is the intermediate drive. It's not stiff and uses non-standard parts. Newer designed velomobiles have much better methods of running the chain to the drive wheels.

That sucks.

I did not go for a walk today.

I pass this house on my evening commute. Note Honda kei van on Clinton street.

Snowshoeing?

Who was that guy here, years back, that was into kayaking/white water?

Not enough snow. See picture above.

cat herding action at the Yankee's game!!!

No New Era fans here?

I hate to sound like Velo Vol , but its 59 degrees this am. Fall looms.

Why?

Those do look big, bulky, heavy, and not very good looking. Being a gadget/tech guy to some degree, I'd be interested in seeing how they work, but really have no desire to buy them.

Interesting concept, yes, must have, no.

Did you wear a gilet for your ride??

What a badass. I could just see you now earning medals in the military. You’re still young enough, right?

There's a medal for battling gnats?

He has endeavored to persevere.

Medal of Valor for VV.

After eating a few gnats on the bike a friend referred to them as "air krill".

Poor thing was scared out of its mind. But also everyone knows the best way to catch a cat is to put out a cardboard box.

Man, oh man - I've been LPLO'd four or five times in the last two days, and it's even happened on mobile. :notamused:

:foo:

There was a rider out this morning wearing an insulated vest. Seemed like overkill for 60F.

Looks like they're asking ~$450 for them. For that price, their compromised aesthetics would be a non-starter; their eye-magnet gizmo housing would put The Jerk's to shame.

Just because I was curious, I looked up that other one that I'd seen - https://gearjunkie.com/biking/everys...glasses-review

Yeah, it's ugly, too, though maybe not as ugly.

That concept was big in sailing for a while. Never saw anyone using them, but they don't let me near the fast boats.

I am, however, considering a cheap pair of cycling glasses with near inserts for when I get lost and need to read maps on my phone.

Agree. That said, I love a lightweight gilet for cool mornings when start temps are 55-60, easy to pitch into a back pocket when temps rise into the 60s.
