Hey All,
I am a member of the Senior Cyclists of Baltimore County and we had a ride yesterday on the North Central Rail Trail (NCRR). Short ride, 6 miles to New Freedom, and decided to take the single speed folder that was in the trunk. I got a workout, felt good. Even remembered to put flowers on bike.

Hey Ron Damon hope you're ok and safe?
Family and friends safe?

As for the tremor in the neighboring island, it was only 5.6 on the Richter scale. Not even an earthquake in my book. The international media, particularly those from non-volcanic countries, always make these constant tremors a big deal. In my childhood I did survive a major one that scored 7.5 on the Richter scale (the scale is logarithmic, as you well know).
Another thing to remember is that Indonesia is a vast country, spanning one-eighth of the planet's circumferece, There could be a real catastrophe in one part and I wouldn't know it here in my own locality.
Thanks for asking though.

Yes, thanks. Yesterday's afternoon ride was uneventful. Nothing significant to report, really.

Rio Chico Bar, Orgiva.

I wonder what language whoever planted this olive tree spoke? Almost certainly not Spanish. Could it have been Arabic? Or maybe whatever lost Germanic tongue the Visigoths spoke! Or maybe a far flung from Roma peasant dialect of Latin? Or some Hebrew sounding Phoenician language? Beautiful old olive tree/bike rack.

This is a herd of Origami Bulls at the World Cup in Qatar. After the US was eliminated, they were passed on to people from other nations to continue their journey.

On our way from Frankfurt to Hamburg. Just love this little folder, and it’s going to get some tasty upgrades.

This was from my 1st out of town trip with my Zizzo Liberte last year. I drove up to Santa Barbara with the bike and explored the city by bike.

I just saved 4 Dahon Stowaways and a Raleigh RSW from the scrap heap.
But I'm way too big and fat for these.
Anybody want a Stowaway?

My new ZiZZO Liberté's first quick test ride after some mods & adjustments along the river Friday evening.
Mods done: Schwalbe Marathon Plus 20x1.75 tires, new handlebars, grips, mirror & bell, lights, pedals, bottle cage & a Selle San Marco SKN saddle.
I tried a pair of fenders in my parts box, but they look kind of janky, so I'll try something else.
I have the same bike. Are the tires hard to change out? I hated the grip shifter so traded it out for 8 speed trigger shifter, much better, and went with swept back handlebars so the grips are closer, love your saddle tho, sleek looking

Winter mods are an inexpensive rack & fenders. Once the weather gets decent again, I'll do some mods to make it lighter.

The weather is bad. I have to keep the animals in the stable.
