#BikeTooter #Mixte

An old, rusty, beat-up red/pink bicycle locked up to a yellow wave rack. The bike has a mixte frame with lots of paint chips (easily 30 years old). However, the wheels are newer, the silver fenders look brand new, the saddle is only a few years old, and the swept-back handlebars replace the original drop bars and also look custom and new-ish. Clearly a very well-loved bike (I suspect older than its owner!) Oh yeah, the original derailleurs and shifters were removed, and it's now a single-speed.

It’s been three weeks since spinal surgery so I did a little test ride around the neighborhood. Nothing impressive but, hey… gotta start small, right?

The sports medicine facility I go to for PT sent me a survey. The last question was a big text box to tell them about my experience so I wrote this:
“Overall a great experience. My only complaint is the bike rack in the parking structure that is super-cheap/poor quality and not even bolted down.”

After getting our new fridge, we packed our cycles and did a nice loop in the neighbourhood. It's been a bit warm but with enough water it went quite well.
Enjoy your Saturday!

The meadow leads to a beautiful lake, its calm, turquoise waters reflecting the clear blue sky above. The lake is bordered by m…

I stopped by the vet's office today to pick up meds for the cat. This sign is down. You can see the disturbed concrete where it was mounted. This is the pole I would lock my bike to when I would stop by the vets.
I wonder if someone on their bike crashed into it and knocked it over ha ha, just kidding... I'm sure it was a car.

Eight days out from breaking my rib, I took my favourite bike out of the shed this afternoon for a wee ride, to see if by any chance I would be able to ride into Castle Douglas (40Km round trip) tomorrow to pick up my medicine.
I managed about two hundred metres.
The answer is 'no'.

Added Power Grips (pedal straps) to my wife's #Brompton. Not going to say it's my nicest work, but I'm hopeful that it'll hold. I only drilled holes through the plastic reflectors; the metal is all intact. I can change that later if needed. #BikeTooter

The right side pedal. The red Brompton is folded up (doesn't even really look like a bike), but the right crank has a normal-looking pedal with a black strap on it. The metal hardware attachment has screws going through the orange plastic reflector of the pedal. The bike's on a white rug w/ black line pattern.
The opposite side of that same right pedal. You have a better view of the opposite side of the orange reflector, with nuts and washers attached to the bolts that go through it. The red folding bike it's attached to is just a jumble of stem, wheel, drivetrain, etc.
The left-side pedal (and behind it, the brompton logo on the red frame). The pedal is folded up so that it is parallel to the crank arm. The orange reflector is missing from the exposed side of the pedal. Of the two screws that held the reflector in, one is missing (just an empty screw hole), and the other is screwed into the end of the black Power Grip strap.
The other side of the left pedal. This time the pedal is unfolded (so it's perpendicular to the crank arm), and the plastic grey reflector mount is installed but only one side is screwed in. The orange reflector is actually missing, and underneath you can see the silver Power Grips attachment hardware. Though normally you'd have two screws holding the attachment hardware in, there's only one screw there; the grey reflector mount is on top of it, pinching it down to hold it in place. Essentially…

Good afternoon #BikeNYC #BikeTooter. Gorgeous day out there, make sure you've got your official #NYC garbage bin before the June 1st deadline!

A blue midtail cargo bike (a Yuba Kombi with a battery and custom (Bafang BBS02) motor. Attached to the rear is a 45gal black garbage bin. Behind the bike, there's the world's shittiest bike rack, and the generic stone wall and windows of a big box hardware store.
An overhead shot of me over the bike. White-ish guy with a blue shirt, white helmet, glasses, and stubble. Behind me is the rear rack of the bike (and a pannier), dwarfed by the big garbage bin.
Another side view of the cargo bike, from the opposite side. A black pannier is attached to the rear rack, which has a ring (for kids to hold onto ) and a little black pad (for kid butts). A bungee is hooked between the metal bar of the garbage bin and the bottom of the bike, and another cord goes around the outside of the bin. The bin reads "trash". Bhine the bike, a red brick wall and foliage.
Front/side view of the bike, which is parked w/ the kickstand up. There's a black battery nestled between the down front tubes, a flat squat pannier (containing the garbage bin wheels and misc other stuff), and the bin on this side reads "New York City Dept Of Sanitation"

I was biking near the queens zoo today, and adjusting the pedal-assist all the way up to 4 (which I never do). Thinking to myself, "Jesus fuck, is this headwind really that strong or is this heat just making me weak?"
I look over at the sidewalk, and someone is walking backwards to deal with the wind. "Oh, it's actually the headwind."

Today's bike ride to work sucked. Wearing a respirator for 30 minutes isn't very comfortable. I had to adjust it a few times and it was much worse breathing in the wildfire smoke so respirator it is.
I can only assume our climate will get worse as time goes on so I figured I might want to get used to this.

Especially as it's not so hot any more.

The new construction on Lisbon Avenue has a separated bike lane next to the sidewalk.
So which is worse? People walking on the bike lane or people biking on the sidewalk?

#QueensZoo needs to ditch these awful bike racks and install staple racks. This same amount of space could fit at least a dozen bikes, but the "wheel bender" rack is just space inefficient.
#NYCParksDepartment

A wooded area next to a fence (next to the Queens Zoo entrance). A long wheel-bender bike rack, maybe 12ft long, with cobblestone underneath. Two cargo bikes (mid-tail or longtail) are parked on either end of the rack, basically the only usable spots on the rack. Kid seats are installed on the rear of both bikes.
Same rack with the two cargo bikes locked, but now there's a *third* cargo bike (my blue Yuba Kombi) attached to it. My bike is locked in the middle, and I have a smaller kids' bike attached to my bike, so I'm literally taking up THE ENTIRE SIDE of the bike rack. The smaller bike is attached to my rear rack by its front wheel, with the rear wheel of the kids' bike on the ground.

I biked 6 miles this morning. Felt pretty good. My back didn’t seem to mind… I did have a little knee pain at one point. (Which is one of the reasons I switched to an ebike.)
I may wait a bit to try biking to work, especially since it’s supposed to be 90 °F next week. 😭
