Tuna is so delicious. (If you squint you can see me.)
It's waiting for you, @Clean39t @lavi

Sorry, it’s Tuna Canyon Road In the Santa Monica mountains (next to Topanga Canyon if that means anything to you)

Fantastic descent. One way road for the most part. Quite technical.

Nope, I’ve done it so many times that I’m barely feathering ‘em

In before @ORBiker posts a better photo of the magical inversion layer sunset we had in Portland today.. I should have stopped to take some pics about 4-min earlier.

Picked up a used Sony RX100 IV, then get a strap so I can snap more on my rides.

I never felt comfy pulling out my phone to take photos. Even with a bar bag, my phone is inside another smaller bag. Not very handy.

Photographers sometimes call those "never-ready" cases. If you're serious about using the camera, you just have to have it almost out and nearly ready to use. When I used to bring my RX100 with me on rides, it went in a jersey pocket with no outer case. (Now I'm lazy and just use an iPhone that has two focal lengths.)

Right, makes sense. I think the strap will make it easier to “being ready”. Also I’d feel less appreciative dropping my 2nd hand compact camera vs my iPhone.

New machine! Finally been able to start getting the groundwork laid for a strong year. It's everything I've wanted for sometime. Titanium, 3 bottle cage mounts, road components, silver touch points mixed with some birthstone turquoise - its great.

Very nice! And a nice horizontal stem at that too ;-). Who makes that stem?

It's a Ritchey stem that was painted for another bike that didn't fit the gentleman who purchased it so I snagged it! It's my favorite color so I was quite pleased. I would love to get the fork painted the same color but that's a project for another day.
