Current wallpaper

This is what I got on my desktop at the moment, a picture posted by a pal here. For some reason, I find it very appealing even though only the seatpost is showing.

A confluence of random events that are somehow drawn together: the bike in the wallpaper picture is undoubtedly a Bruce Gordon by virtue of the fastback seatstay and binder bolt assembly. None other like it from any other builder.

Which is more Bruce Gordon of any sort than has been on this forum in years. No matter, still a great builder and that root beer colored BG in yopur wallpaper is still a superb bike.

just got new mac so nothing special right now , just a close up of some wet green grass...

I used to always have a shot i took of a mt lake up in the ADK. Upper Gull Lake, was a beautiful day, amazing hike after a difficult kayak trip into the trail head after a 30 min big boat ride to get us across the lake.

what a day!

Cant find that photo sadly.

This is what is on my phone. It is a stretch of some of my favorite local roads taken on a Saturday group ride.

I'm more utilitarian. This is my heatmap through February. I want to go places I haven't been.

It's still close enough to that time of year (actually it always is).

It never occurred to me to put the Knog light on the seat post. Wouldn't it be obstructed when you are pedaling?
