Are you kidding me? Is this some kind of a joke?

I was just cruising the website of Curbside Cycles, one of my favorite Toronto bike stores, when I came across this lovely Pashley handlebar bag. It is beautiful, isn’t it? How much would you pay for it? I was thinking…well, it is pretty nice, the next time I’m in Toronto maybe I’ll pick one upContinue reading “Are you kidding me? Is this some kind of a joke?”

Those Wacky Food and Bike Loving French

I love this photo and thought it appropriate to post it with the current Tour de France going on (is the race still going, or is it over yet?). It’s a photo of Georges Grillot and Roger Coiffier, tandem riders in the Brest–Menton race in 1930. It’s just one of the annual bike races inContinue reading “Those Wacky Food and Bike Loving French”

Annie Londonderry and Columbia Bikes

I’ve been meaning to read this book about Annie Londonderry for a while, but haven’t gotten around to it yet. I was browsing through it at a book store recently…it looks like an interesting book and she certainly seems like an incredible woman. She bicycled around the world on a heavy single speed bike byContinue reading “Annie Londonderry and Columbia Bikes”

Mystical Candle

I took this short video about a year ago and forgot about it. Then tonight while looking for something else on my hard-drive I came across it again and thought I’d share it. I was writing one night and had a candle and incense burning (yes, I burn candles and incense sometimes) and the heatContinue reading “Mystical Candle”

3rd Generation Sunflower

I planted a sunflower close to my front porch two years ago. Last year a few feet in front of the original location another grew without me planting it…seeds fell and it replanted itself. This year a few feet further the same thing happened. Nature takes care of itself if we let it. Beautiful. IContinue reading “3rd Generation Sunflower”
