Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#208)…with a link, a few comments, and another photo.

Sometimes (more often than not, actually) the only thing I carry on this bike is me. While it weighs in the upwards of 60 lbs. and is more then 6 ft. long I still find it the most comfortable and fun bike to ride (out of my 3 main bikes). Not only does it’s uprightContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#208)…with a link, a few comments, and another photo.”

The photo wasContinue reading “Marie and Pierre Curie on Their Honeymoon”

Anyhow I came across this 4 minute video titled Everything Will Be OK. I kept waiting for something to happen, but nothing ever did…it’s justContinue reading “Squiggly Man Makes Me Smile”

An Original Tall Bike

Though I’ve never ridden one I’ve been intrigued by tall bikes for a while. I’ve also posted on them in the past, specifically about a local bicyclist-bike builder, Jason (click here and here).
