TS Cycling Thread - Biking Sober!

Spent three days riding along the Dutch - German border for my 60th birthday. Had terrific fun. Love this bike and what I can do with it so much. Here’s to many more adventures like this!

So glad I got out today and rode, despite it being doomy and gloomy all day long. Also very happy with my commute/hybrid bike after getting big service by my bike guy. One of the reasons I switched bike shops was that one of the mechanics in the previous one said that after five years a bike was a write off and I should get a new one. BS. This one is now 5 or 6 years old. It did need some serious TLC but now it’s so smooth again :heart: :bicycle: :heart:

This is impressive cycling Mno. Your bike is so much like mine. Mine is in storage at my cousins house until I can get a shed built to keep it at home.
Your engine may need a tune up every 5-6 years :smiley:

Cold day but sunny. Happy I got out and did a -by now traditional- ride of visiting Luna’s grave and getting some good groceries from across town.

Riding due East into Germany. Meeting a TS member in their own town on Wednesday. Love the Komoot app for helping me find a route that was largely unpaved, quiet and most importantly today, shady. Love from Leichlingen. Nice Airbnb too.

We got a new indoor bike and this is by far my favorite function!! I did Bangkok a few days ago and was in London tonight.

Everything was perfect for this ride. Hardly any headwind for the first part, a fresh breeze in my back coming in from the ocean for the second half, to make it not so hot for the better part of my ride. A couple of guys that wanted to race me which I never do but this time I engaged and it was fun and made me go a lot faster that I normally do. And 209 km / 130 miles which is the furthest I’ve rode this year and I feel fit and strong. Great day!

Lots of ups and downs, both in the relief and my mood. Glad I made it home. Sun had no mercy.

Pictures are only form the first 40 km from the upper Danube valley as the rest was booooooooring flat and only sun.

I am grateful the sky was covered today and even some rain drops came down. Not that I really felt them.
I am grateful my friend called me on my ride. Unfortunately she called when I was going uphill and very busy with breathing and pedalling. But she talked a lot :grimacing:
I am grateful I didn’t have to yell at cars today. I sometimes have the feeling that a car will be my cause of death.
