The rain held off today - a pleasant surprise.

Shots from rides this week - Raleigh Twenty folding bike, Raleigh Sprite 5-speed, and some Mallards out for a swim.

Just a few more pictures - out and about this week. Lots of daylight this time of the year.

You have quite a variety of English metal, all beautifully taken care of. And I see that you ride different size frames, though apparently not by choice but what you've manged to find in your quests.

I took a couple of rides today because I took yesterday away from riding (rain) and because I felt good about having lots of ride time today. So why not try to very different bikes back-to-back: the Raleigh DL-1 and the Raleigh Twenty. This gives a taste of large wheels (28 inch DL-1) and small (20 inch folder).

Losing daylight, but the weather has finally improved from the ultra-humid, rainy stuff we had all summer. The B&M Lumotec Classic will be an asset as a headlight becomes more and more important going deeper into fall.
