A couple things. Firstly, I had to drive my son in the wee hours to my sisters house this morning (they were leaving for vacation at 6am) and my truck was quite literally running on empty. And as I have a disdain for spending money on petrol I put $10US in the tank and theContinue reading “10mpc / 16kpc (miles/kilometers per coffee)”

Things That Can be Carried on a Bike (#416)
A cardboard box containing 4 pints of homemade dog food for the pugs (chopped leftover beef scraps), two pints of brown rice and lentils (for me), a couple cooked tilapia fillets (also for me), and a pound of coffee straight from Coast Rica (thanks Nicole!). A canvas bag containing a magazine, a book, a journal,Continue reading “Things That Can be Carried on a Bike (#416)”
A Book, A Bike Ride, and Four Loaves of Bread
It is the beginning of the busy season at my place of employment and today is/was my only day off this week, sandwiched between a series of busy and stressful days. But as usual–being the doer that I am–I had a series of things that I planned on accomplishing today. My man-cave is in desperateContinue reading “A Book, A Bike Ride, and Four Loaves of Bread”
A Couple More Things (about the new bike)…
While I really haven’t had a chance to ride the new Cargo-T that often in the past week (since receiving it), nor have I carried much on it, I think it will be a good all-around weather bike (aka, next year’s winter bike). When I came out of work this evening–after working a double shift–itContinue reading “A Couple More Things (about the new bike)…”

Things That Can be Carried on a Bike (#414)…and a few comments on the new Bike
On the bike…3 liters of red wine and a gym bag containing wet clothes. A few comments on the new bike…Well, I’ve had it nearly a week and am finally getting used to it. I haven’t introduced a new bike into the fleet in some years and it sort of feels like I brought aContinue reading “Things That Can be Carried on a Bike (#414)…and a few comments on the new Bike”
Paint it Black
This is a continuation of a previous post. I love the new color, it is more me; I feel more comfortable on the bike now. I still have not ridden it much…disassembled and reassembled it today to paint it, and now it’s pouring rain. I did find it interesting removing the front and rear wheels;Continue reading “Paint it Black”
Love the Bike but not the Color (mon nouveau vélo est arrivé)
Yep…loving this bike so far but not the color (more on why I purchased this color below). I’ve been in the market for a somewhat inexpensive bike to replace my winter bike (aka…the Mule; aka…my home built cargo bike). This is not to replace the Mundo (which is still my favorite bike); it’s just thatContinue reading “Love the Bike but not the Color (mon nouveau vélo est arrivé)”
