nice to read...

Minneapolis is named the #1 bike town in the U.S.A.   ...but people wonder... yes, they ride bikes, yes its is cold there at times... but the city does what is needed to make bikes a viable part of the transportation mix.. Posted on Dreamwidth

Sitting in Higher Grounds..

Right now enjoying a coffee at Higher Grounds, my preferred hangout in Idyllwild. Just did a shakedown cruise on my 'new' single speed mountain bike. I finally found something to do with my old K2 Zed 3.0. I also was playing with my video cam, so a video may follow. I think I have found my ideal mount for the camera, it now works with my chest mount, yes, I mount the camera on my chest with a mounting kit and harness. The view is different (you'll see). Well the coffee tastes good but time to hit the road. Posted on Dreamwidth

bike stuff...

Seems the driver in Bolder who ran over a cyclist and then drove away has invented the new 'Twinkies' defense. He says that the new car smell in his top line Mercedes may have contributed to his behavior.  This article and the following articles give a history of how having money can make a mockery of our justice system. Welcome to the age of the oligarchs.

More....

and even more evidence of injustice

snow tires for bikes....??

Seems the last Snowpocalyse in Seattle spawned the creativity of the bicycle community.... and this is the result.... I'll have to remember this for the odd time when global warming creates the next snowpocalyse...
