My "fungicyclist" Merino wool jersey is out for mending, as the moths had at it, or I'd photograph it. Damn moths. A fellow mycologist had it made and gifted it to me, for inspiring her to mycocycle, as I started doing almost thirty years ago. Could not cover enough ground on foot to make me happy. I have mesh sacks for panniers.

Good on you for foraging!
Thanks!

I assure you they were not in the least bitter. I will grant that they were a little old and the creamy pores had turned more brownish. I think the pink tinge is reflected light from the red bag.

Yes, the bicycle is a fine foraging tool, also great for getting me to those choice fishing spots. Your jersey reminds me of an acquaintance whose personalized license plate is "BOLETUS".
