You think you can get a bit closer and less grainy, bud?
Haha, I didn't actually take the picture of the gator, one of the other riders did. I'll make sure to tell her that you are impressed with her photography skills

Started the ride early this morning in the dark. First time using a dynamo and I really like it. The bikes not half bad either!

It states 100 lux. Not sure what that translates to lumens, but it was dark and cloudy this am and the light kept everything nice and bright while out on the road!

We had non-stop raining for the whole week that caused huge flooding and havoc in our area. It finally cleared up today and was able to go outside and ride. We also had a visitor in our group ride this morning. He just moved from California.

My son and I (mostly my son) have been racing cyclocross this season up here in Minneapolis. This year is his first year as a Junior. He's 9 years old and HUGE for his size! (5'2" and 100lbs, he's 2" shorter than my wife!)
Lower right, black kit, yellow helmet... That's me bringing up the rear!

allan pal, your son looked so "pro" and grown-up on the course and then saw him on the podium, was reminded again that he's only 9...amazing!

thanks for sharing your pride and joy. the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

A chilly and very windy Sunday ride, mostly pavement with some rail trail and singletrack mixed in. I managed to keep my streak alive of riding to all my daughters away travel soccer games this fall. Squeezed in another local dam as well!
