faced my fears and rode the route where I crashed and fucked my knee up just over 3 weeks ago, first hike a bike since the accident, first “real” climbing on a lil gravel section, feeling good.
Love this new bike lane on Clark street it’s glorious!
Now if only it were more than half a mile long….
Been having fun with the iPhone long exposure thing. Too bad you can’t tune it though. It’s a bit aggressive.

Went hunting there once. Saw a sign that said “Bear Left” so I went home.
How’s the bike as a camping platform? Terrible and awful and not worth me buying because it’s compact and cool, right?
I did a short but slow loop up to Springville Road this afternoon. It kept threatening to rain, but didn’t actually succeed in doing so until I was about 2 miles away from home on the return.
But I did manage the Leif Erikson stations of the path photos:
(Why Springville Road? @cheese had patiently stored a pair of weird SRAM levers for me during my dysphoria & recovery years, but that was about to come to an end due to his family’s pending escape from Little Beirut. And lemme tell you the collabo of not doing much riding for 3 years × HRT makes the ramps even more exciting that they were in the first place.)
Nevertheless I managed to big-ring the whole shebang and I avoided stopping unless it was to take pictures or tighten the bolts holding my after bottle cage to the frame.
Comfy as hell, super capable but makes you pack a little lighter
Here it is on the train and the burrito I ate after crushing it at 15mph for an hour into a headwind with my bud on a fat bike to make it to said train.
This one is in seattle and been for sale for a while at 2,400. Offer him 1,800 and tell him to keep the paul shit.
Dayjahvoo. Bentonville has been on an adaptive MTB friendly trail building kick lately, which are super awesome on this long boi.
