The fence needs to be power washed and given a coat of Olympic.

Haha, I agree. It is, however, not my fence.

Bikes ain't bad either.

Well, I can't offer much, but in light of the gravel bike threads, here's my hybrid / urban / gravel / flat-bar-road / adventure / whatever bike. I'm crossing the Wisconsin River on the Merrimac Ferry. The back story is that my spouse is a runner, and so I've been riding my bike to meet her, wherever she has a run or race. It gets me up in the morning on weekends, and adds some variety to my rides. Then, depending on distances, I either ride back or throw my bike in her car and drive back. Last weekend she ran in a trail race at Devils Lake State Park, so I took a nice 35 mile ride up there. The ferry ride is a nice bonus, and it's pretty easy until the last big hill up the bluff above the river, where the state park is. I'd better not complain, my spouse ran up and down that bluff a couple times.

Despite being on roads, I only encountered about half a dozen cars between Madison and the ferry. The only traffic was the road in and out of the park, which is a popular one.

The bike is a 2016 Diamondback Haanjo Metro, which is basically a sporty looking hybrid with 1x9 gearing. I've added a swept handlebar, per my usual preference, and rear rack.

There's so much to love about that bike. Does the stem really say 'tacos'?

it's a mock-up of a pretty popular Salsa stem graphic design. I think it's pretty cool! I want one for my Wabi. PM me if your friend has any he'd be willing to sell

I recognized the design from the Salsa stem, but that is great.

What is the wheel build on that bike? Rims look really wide in the photo.
