"Flowig, fast durchgehend. Nur diese Sand-Passagen zwischendurch."

Kleines Gravel-Potpourri aus dem Raum "Fleesensee, Malchow, Göhren Lebbing". Die leicht wellige Landschaft lies sich gut in der Figur unterbringen :o)

Ein breiter Feldweg wird vereinzelt von großen Bäumen begleitet.

Eine schmale Landstraße zwischen Feldern mit einem Geschwindigkeits-reduzierenden Kopfsteinpflaster-Huppel.

Some #bike impressions while grocery shopping in #Ottawa the awkward placed rack boggles my mind. Do install people not think?

A blue extended bike parked in front of the Costco. Heavenly blue sky

An older person cycling on a trike crossing a speed hump. Assigned is mounted on the back of the trike, asking to support basic income.

A bike rack in a corner behind the recycling bins and shelves of flowers for sale. It is nearly impossible to park a bike, despite the racks should space for six bikes if placed properly.

Just outside Stornoway there are these great brutalist bus shelters! #biketooter

Some oik has nicked the front wheel off my bicycle. What details do I need to know in order to get a suitable replacement?

I went to Basel early in the morning. Traffic was a little aggressive, cars (mostly) and bikes (some).
On the way back, I took yet another route. But the Blauen can be seen from everywhere! #mdRddG #eBike #BikeTooter

Today I’ve made it to Lewis. Getting out of Tarbert involved a LOT of hill. #biketooter

A big hill with a loch in front. A steep road heads up it right to left.

A bike standing in front of a sign that reads:

Failte do dh'Eilean Leodhais

I'm a bit concerned about the lack of situational awareness shown by the front rider. The rear rider is at least checking if they're about to get hit from one side, but what about hazards to the left, or more importantly, straight ahead?

On the other hand, I'm glad to see that the tandem appears to be using inch-pitch chain rings, and probably block chain, which is a good idea for the extra loading that happens with two riders.

“Pedal away those tag-nut blues with Clag-Gone! A unique breakthrough in ringpiece technology.”

A mock ad has a drawing of a smiling man wearing only a t-shirt, cycling on an adapted static bicycle such that the rear wheel is cleaning his arse.

The ad has many other sales messages, including:

“Carbon fibre bristles provide over 1,000 hours of clag removal.”

“3-speed cling-on removal at the flick of a switch.”

“Industrial strength detergent ensures complete winnit riddance.”

When I was in Alabama, putting these notices on my yellow vests finally got the police to stop harassing me for bicycling legally on the road.

A bright yellow vest with 2 silver reflective stripes. In black magic marker are the following: at the bottom are worried eyes and an open mouth, tongue barely visible. On top are 3 panels. The 1st panel has a drawing of a bicycle. Under it says "May use full lane". The 2nd panel say "Change lanes to pass". The 3rd panel says "AL Code 32-5a 260 32-5a 263(a).

The saga of Rusty the HardRock #bicycle continues.

Haven't heard from the guy who has my bike all weekend. It's a holiday, so I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt. Going to reach out tomorrow morning and make arrangements to get it back. Otherwise, I am showing up unannounced where he lives. Go from there.

As for next steps, I'm trying to find another professional #bike mechanic in #Portland #Oregon #PDX. Hopefully someone with more hands on and recent experiences - like in the last 3 or 4 years - who might be able to help me get the BB out of my steel frame.

I appreciate the offers of help I've had already. I'll be in touch. Just trying to improve my odds by tooting again.

But here's the issue. I spent the last $40 of my budget for this bike already.

I had considered buying another bike, but the owner won't go down on the price.

I haven't been able to sell my Nishiki either.

I'm unemployed right now. But I'm willing to work. I have prior retail and a lot of customer service and IT/technical support experience. I like to work with my hands. Maybe you have a shop I can work at?

I just want to ride a bike, you know?
