Forgot to add of course: I'm undertaken a modest and haphazard project to collect photos of bosque area neighborhoods. I find this interesting in itself, but it also provides a reason to do the sort of riding I used to enjoy as a boy, just riding around a city to explore different neighborhoods. I recall doing this in Delhi as a 12 year old on my hot-rodded (crimson repaint, aftermarket AW hub) road brake Hero, particularly the neighborhoods where a couple of girls I fancied lived.
I had through that a Clem or suchlike might be the ideal bike for this, but today I rode the Joe Starck gofast and I was very pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed just toodling around Los Duranes as an extended detour from the RG bike path. The bike is perfect comfortable for this sort of riding as for just about all other pavement riding. I stopped at Albertson's on the way home and the Sackvill Small carried: 1 "handle" of Gordon's London gin 1 quart of lemon juice 1 pint of dill pickles 1 pint of whole mile Fat loaf of P Farm whole wheat Pretty good since the bag already contained a medium sized dopp kit with bike stuff in it and a Lezyne minipump On Sat, Aug 24, 2024 at 3:41 PM Patrick Moore <bertin...@gmail.com> wrote: > I haven't yet figured out how to get photos from my iPhone to my Mac > (neither iCloud nor iPhoto are cooperating) so I've had to manually send > them by email to the Mac and download.
