Very cool, but could we get a drive side photo?

Here's a late evening ride onto the Wellington D-Y-K-E two nights ago.Twas beautiful and my Windozephone sux completely.

Our home is kinda just to the right of the camera frame in the first shot. The view is pretty much what you see from our backyard...if you cut a few 100 year old red pines.

No bike visible in the pic, but I like it anyway... taken while riding home after Sunday's pub crawl ride

You're not the first to make that comment. It's probably my favorite spot on the river... during the day, the slow-moving water is a luminescent green. It's actually in the middle of Fort Worth, near TCU. The clump of trees along the left bank screens out Colonial Country Club. I think the lights on the right are bleeding through the trees from the large rail yard just around the riverbend to the right.

Last weekend's 'matchlit ride' a dozen veteran machines complete with oil or acetylene lamps riding through London's Royal Richmond Park complete with unnerving herds of 'rutting' deer ! Shame it was so bright and cloudy, but you could sure see those deer antler's sillhouetted!

From tonight's ride; my first ride on a fixed gear bike (just built a wheel around a flip-flop hub)


We are the NIGHT RIDERS! We RIDE our bikes at NIGHT!
