^^^^^ It gets posted frequently enough that it's kind of self-sticky.

Your comments are appreciated. This was my second attempt after having wrapped the '83 Trek the same way. The Trek wrapped, for whatever reason, straighter and more consistently when comparing either side of the bars. Beginner's luck, I guess. The Fuji was not as cooperative. As you can see the points on either side of the stem were not willing to line up and twisted as they wrapped down the bar. I missed something in the spell when conjuring up the Harlequin Gods. When I have more idle time on my hands, I'll probably try again and re-wrap the Fuji while paying more attention to the folds.

Here's a new twist on Behind Bars if Pitt St. Brewing is considered a bar 
After the Ride of Silence last week the news report chose to focus on my '85 Ironman to close out the report. Nice touch choosing a shiny, colorful, cherry red & chrome horizontal top tube specimen from yesteryear among the sea of mostly black matte carbon & AL bikes
Pitt St. is a co-sponsor and there's a taco wagon & 1 free draft after the ride

An excellent morning to be riding, straight out of the sun (on the return leg). Felt the strongest and fastest in the last 5 of the 30 miles. There's something to this cycling thang, eh?

This thread came immediately to mind when I came across this pic again from a couple-three years back:
I may even have posted this one before. Don't care - the interwebs could always do with a few more cat photos, amiright?

Central Park, first ride of ‘22 post-meniscus repair
Cape Cod Rail Trail
Old Croton Aqueduct Trail
Maybe taken on April 19th? 😁

Ahead of the bars. Looking back up the Devil’s Punchbowl section of Schofield Pass in Colorado.
Yea, it’s that steep.
