Climate circumstances have been extremely favorable for bicycling at the moment:

As soon as once more I rode the Vengeance Bike; partially as a result of I’ve turn into fairly keen on it, and partially as a result of I’ve been “busy” (by my requirements, not these of a standard productive member of society), and generally you simply need to have the ability to cowl extra miles in much less time. On this sense, street using is like funneling biking–although it’s not a bad-looking funnel, you gotta admit:

The shaft of sunshine was utterly unintentional, however I like the way it turned out:

Lest you suppose I’m reverting to Lycra-dom, I did no less than trip in “jort” mode:

As I discussed lately, I’ve acquired some extra merino finery from Vulpine, and as a semi-professional bike blogger I’m obliged to write down about it or they’ll ship somebody to repossess these fancy padded underpants:

We noticed that on the seaside yesterday and just about everybody who handed it took an image. Typically the universe simply tees up these ironic pictures for you, and I’m positive it’s already on like a thousand Instagrams–although mine’s the one one with a pair of tie-dye Crocs seen within the reflection:

He’s nonetheless using that Woom NOW recurrently, by the way in which. We have now a number of quibbles with a few of the equipment, which I’ll handle sooner or later, however total it’s been an amazing bike.
As for the jort ensemble, I’m happy to report that was extraordinarily comfy and I used to be not wanting for Lycra in any respect. Mid-80s on the American Freedom Levels™ scale and excessive humidity might need been one other story, however because it was (mid-70s and 34% humidity based on a well-liked climate forecasting web site) I had nary a criticism. Additionally, I chased down a turkey:

And even handed this ebulliently-hued canine:
