It's not like we got caught in it part way through the ride! Steve, dry and warm in Peoria I USED to ride in that crap 40+ years ago (as well as snow/ice/slush). I hope that now that I'm quite a bit older than I was back then- and that I'm also quite a bit smarter! I haven't intentionally ridden in the rain in over 30 years. I |

https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...0079eaf9c4.gif Steve in Peoria, where we definitely experience this sort of nonsense These clever artists seem to have a friendly go at each other from time-to-time. The small irony is Jef Mallett pretty much quit cycling to concentrate on ultradistance swimming by the time this Pearls Before Swine strip was published even though his character Frazz was still cycling big-time. So is it Frazz (with the duplicate "z") or Pastis the one who doesn't think of everything? https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...71b696eb0a.gif |
The "battle" between Jef Mallett and Stephen Pastis has been fun to watch over the years.
I saved a few of the Frazz comics dealing with this ongoing conflict (and saved the various "Jef the Cyclist" Pearls comics too...) https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...09e9056402.gif https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...628947d46d.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...441874d186.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...237d17b383.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...c25f917ddb.gif https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...6e635d9b69.gif Steve in Peoria |

Haha....I've had that comic stuck to my frig for years! Calvin's dad is the unsung cycling hero of the comic. Another one of my favorites.....

Cross training = de-mossing the lawn

^^^^^^ Reminds me of a friend who had purchased a beautiful new Harley Davidson Wide Glide. When I visited his garage he had a heavy chain looped thru the Harley and through his old Gravely tractor. I looked at it and said " Bob, are you worried about someone stealing your Gravely?"
He didn't laugh much...... |

I am impressed that in both of those the bike is anatomically correct.

Here are a few shots from Cumberland Island GA:
We grabbed a couple of rental bikes after getting off of the ferry and rode down the only road on the island. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...2853695c2.jpeg We found a nice spot on the beach. Is it “off topic” to show bikes? https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...ef35ecafb.jpeg No bikes north. https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...9978155d1.jpeg No bikes south. https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...f1d8038dc.jpeg |
