And now for something completely different…. When the water was above the rims and sounded like a washing machine going through the spokes, I turned around.

Wide and open places like pix in this thread, it's hard to find and go cycling in Tokyo and Yokohama area.

Well, there are many short hills in Yokohama like this.

At the top of the pic, the road turns to right then gets steeper drastically, I can't climb any more with 39x27.

I’ve been there on a road bike before but this was a day after a good rain so I was on the old beater Iguana.

That road doesn't look so bad. Some of our streets are more screwed up than that.

Carbon Canyon Road. Going from Brea, CA into Chino Hills. One of my favorite routes when it's quiet and car free

Fall leaves. My bike and trailer. My grandson along for the ride, on one of our favorite paths.

On the Wiouwash Trail near Neenah WI. It is an old rail line converted to a trail and runs around 25 miles from Oshkosh to Hortonville, all flat and hard packed dirt, gravel. About 40 degrees out today.

ever stop for a "pit-stop" & then get going again, in the wrong direction?

It was a quiet morning since our temps were below normal:
