Popular Post meepmeepmayer Posted March 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 22, 2019 Ride today!! It was almost warm! Almost... The route was along a river and back. Still barely spring, as you can see. But no longer winter Small ford along the way. Wonderful water colors (looks nicer in real life). A bit further along... Colors! Further up the river. I've been told my pictures look postapocalyptic because there's no people in them. Friday afternoon is always pretty empty, it was actually hard to have people in the picture, but here are some. How many do you count? Point of return. It's always nice to see that it's 33km back home and thinking "no big deal" Rural scenery a few steps away. Snowy mountains hiding in the afternoon haze. Swans, pond, ACM, mountains. Saw a lot of swans today, never saw any before. Mountain view. Gorgeous sunset on the way back, looking behind me. The church spires are a neat detail. I promise there's other people in those vehicles More sunset. This definitely proves I did NOT release a deadly virus so I could ride undisturbed (as certain people surmised) Route (clockwise). Just a quick 60km ride I need bigger batteries. 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Eisenman Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 (edited) The winter 2019 snow plowing has had some ill effects on a local bicycle rental rack Elsewhere I infrequently find these snapped off sign posts left protruding up from the sidewalks. I have the locations of two memorized on my grocery run which I frequently ride at night. This one is at GPS 42.485653, -70.900397 42° 29' 8.3508'' N, 70° 54' 1.4292'' W I went riding last night just to turn the odometer past 10k km! The weather had turned to light rain the last 2 km to my apartment. During the return ride after midnight on commuter rail (red trace) the wheel and I did 59 mph. Winter has come and gone. The Coast Guard made a pickup 50 miles east of Gloucester (see Geo Tracker map above) last week to lift a sick fisherman off a boat and back to a hospital on shore. https://www.gloucestertimes.com/news/fishing_industry_news/coast-guard-medevacs-fisherman/article_52a1ce4d-e7c5-5e2b-9171-01838ac2304b.html Edited March 23, 2019 by Bob Eisenman 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post meepmeepmayer Posted March 23, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 23, 2019 (edited) Glorious day for a nice ride. Bit hazy like yesterday, but great weather and views of the still snowy mountains. It's definitely spring, lots of animals pairing up. Here's a pair of geese. Never seen this type before. They were side-eyeing people (including me) stopping and having a look, but in the end were very chill and just ate some grass. More mountain views. I did a short detour from my round trip into the mountains, could not resist. It's up the small valley you can see here. Scenery. Some Llamas along the way. Up into the mountains. And up. Getting notably colder, and there's still some snow. Where I turned around. I was worried about my battery. Justifiedly, came home on the very last of the low battery tiltbacks, but I made it home There's an ACM hidden in the shadows. Map of the round trip with the detour into the mountains.

You are looking more like "predator" every day (maybe it's the sky line reflection in your visor). One day alien, one day predator... Alien vs predator which outfit to choose?

The MSuper V3s+ feels very different from the MSX. I think because you're closer to the ground it has a nicer slow speed riding feel to it. I've been toying with the idea of selling it but after my 30-mile ride yesterday, no way! And unlike my Z10, after 2-months of just sitting there, the battery was at 100-percent when I turned it on 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
