Two Wheels To Nowhere

Brothers in Blues

cadenced: Belgian cyclist Gustaaf Van Slembrouck during the 1927 Tour de France. These early tour riders were damn tough. Maybe cigarettes were the first PEDs…

Don’t stop. GO!

cadenced: Thousands of cyclists hold up their bicycles after riding around the Hungarian capital Budapest on April 25, 2015, to demonstrate critical mass and demand that the city, where hundreds of thousands of people regularly use bikes to get around, develop more cycling infrastructure. The Bernadett Szabo photo was selected as one of The Atlantic’s Photos…

Home again. I won’t be seeing any signs like this cycling around Central Ontario this summer. Next April…

Chinese food pickup. Yum!

Riding with a skilled mechanic is a bonus. Thanks, Trevor!

Cycle and Recycle.

Mt Mitchell. Highest point on the continent east of the Mississippi. A great day on a bike.

VW figured it out a long time ago…

Even though I understand the underlying principles, it still fascinates me that beasts like this even get off the ground.

M.O. for the next week. Rinse and repeat. #BlueRidgeMountain

After playing with model trains as a child, l continue to be fascinated with trains. Both the romantic notion of traditional rails connecting our continents shores and the promise of efficient transportation of a rapidly growing and mobile population. Source: twiggyteeluck

I’m looking forward to Mt Mitchell, in NC.

A whole wall of good advice

ericvanwesenbeeck: Today’s Wheel, Tomorrow’s Meal! Riding with a purpose: a visit to Barrie Hill Farms for fresh asparagus! It won’t be long before the green stalks are ready at Barrie Hill Farms!

ericvanwesenbeeck: Charles Montgomery describes simply “pure freedom” in this passage from his book, Happy City. I can so relate to that same feeling that I have every day on two wheels It is a powerful feeling.

ericvanwesenbeeck: Sitting too much will shorten your life. Get up and move!

Impressive airport vending machine. Is this why we need wider seats on airplanes?

Banking on the snow to melt soon…

Ready to roll!

The garage is too cold today, so I took over the family room. It will warm up soon, won’t it?

They are Wise Men… because they are carpooling! Lots of room in back for gold, frankincense and myhr.

Found another “Hermanism” while working to fix a toilet at Mom’s house, last night. Like I would accidentally grab this from under the kitchen sink and start brushing my teeth with it…. thanks, Dad.

Beautiful photo
