I like this image. If you scroll so the picture is cut off where the mural begins, it really makes the bike feel like part of the backdrop.

He joined me for lunch in Abita Springs LA, or rather I joined him being the visitor!

Mr. Wayne did not get very far with that flat rear tire.

Very nice! I did a double-take, my first thought was that it was a real scene photographed with the bike and processed through a photoshop filter.

From a recent 4 day tour:

^ Being a urbanite, my first instinct is to throw salt on all that white stuff! Great photo, how about some details about your 4 day adventure?

I've passed this truck parked by the side of the road dozens of times. Finally snapped a picture. Dinosaur Towing Inc.

Here's a picture from my ride this morning. Gravel's not bad when riding on 38s. Bianchi Volpe complete w/ Guiness Extra Stoudt bar plugs

1928 Mercedes!
 

I was riding home from the store on my bike today and came across this. It was parked in the middle of the street behind the truck; I stopped and spoke with the owner, touched the car, and admired it for a few minutes. He was very nice and told me this is the only one of it's kind in the world. He said it's worth $3.5 million. I said that it must have been in a few movies (we're in Hollywood) and he said only one, called "1933." As I rode home I decided to grab my camera, hurry back and have him take a photo of the car with me and my bike, but when I returned, it was on the lift and being loaded. I hurried and shot a couple photos as quick as I could to share.

An idyllic scene, until you start thinking about what it takes to become, and remain so. Especially these days.

A side effect of playing with bikes: getting rid of dead tires :commute:

Parked in front of city hall after a meeting about making parts of town more bike friendly.

I took this at work the other day. Fresh snow with the foliage was absolutely spectacular....like double rainbow spectacular!

At the halfway point of last night's ride, I stopped in at a new brew pub. I ran into a friend who had also ridden his bike. He had a problem with his shifter; I helped him fix it. That's me on the left.
