What bike did you ride today?

ISO Gooseneck! lol J/K

Got about 11 miles in today if the last odometer pic is right...too hot for much more.

Got a short ride in on a couple bikes I got going again with a little bit of funds.

Back up bikes in mom’s shed in Idaho.

6 miles today on this fixed gear bicycle. Pretty grunty gearing (26x6 inch pitch), a lot of up and down, traffic, scary for an old guy. Young guys would be dodging in and out of traffic. I spent most of my energy trying to go very slow. That’s not a kerosene head lamp, it’s a very early Go Pro prototype.

Forgot to hit the post reply tab last night.
Took the 41 Westfield on an early evening 10 mile ride when I heard a Fedex truck honking the horn. It was my son that just happened to be delivering in that area so we took a quick picture and water break.

I know what you mean. I do not ride on any busy street cause some drivers don’t care. Just recently one of my neighbors who was an experienced bicyclist was killed while riding. Not long ago we had another high mileage experienced road bicyclist killed by a hit and run driver at the same intersection I used to ride by almost daily. Be careful out there and stay safe.

Too many drivers focus more on their cell phones than the road. I have no ambition to be a speed bump, so I stay on the sidewalks or the greenways.

Same here. I either put the bike in my truck and drive to the bike path or ride on the sidewalks. We have some bike lanes along heavily traveled roads that are too narrow and close to the traffic flow making them dangerous to be on.

This is the reason I like gravel riding. I can, in theory, go 1000 miles almost entirely on that stuff from my front door and there is no cell service. There is an annual 100 mile gravel ride that starts a few miles away. I ride this gravel race and see a handful of buildings and about 10 vehicles, about half ATVs. I briefly pull up a mask for the dust. In the early spring the gravel roads that have been plowed melt off when the snow banks are still high. That’s the best gravel riding, the surface is rock hard frozen and fast.

A little more than an hour ride around the neighborhoods in Idaho.
handbrakes and gears are a little strange for me but I adapted.

I had no deliveries to make to work so I decided to ride my 55 Corvette.
I am out before my shadow is.

Rolling hands-free...

A quick stop at the mart.

At work...

Did an early morning mix and done...trying to beat the heat.
This is the new ice cream shop. Don't know when the plan on opening.

Atvthevmarket picking up chow chow and beets.

Heading back home

RIDE SAFE GANG!
