Such a good day for a light ride!
First time going on errands with my bike!
It was way faster and relaxing than I expected, because though the day was cold, the sun was bright and the sky was cloudless.
Meeting place: ROX BGC 7pm
Ride out: 7:30pm
If you have to ask where that is, you're not in the right country/region. ๐
Only join if you're riding a #FoldableBike complete with front/rear lights and helmet. You either ride their way or you don't ride with them. They're good people. ๐ For info about this group of friendly #cyclists, ask their Ride Leader when you meet at #BGC.

Yup! Got the magnets added. Turns out he didn't need to do any welding. Even better. ๐ The magnets aren't as strong as I expected, but still good. ๐
Now my el cheapo Japan surplus #bike can fold without the center of the wheels banging together. I still use a strap to keep it steady together because I'll be pushing my folded bike from the handlebar. Just a slight twist of it and the magnets will separate.
Money well-spent. ๐

Don't ask which one's me.
Those who know... Know! ๐
It's not hard to guess.
Anywayz...
I had purchased a cheap old Japan surplus #FoldableBike and was using it for the first time for practice. Turns out it needed tightening somewhere. Didn't have the right wrench so we went to a bike shop. Good thing #BikeBuddy's hubby was with us and determined what was wrong* -- and it wasn't me! ๐คช
What? Yeah yeah, I'm that dude with the gorgeous red gravel #bike. ๐ Duh! ๐

That's what my bike purchase was: #investment
Learn #cycling and the #StreetSmarts to safely and securely do #bike #commute; enjoy it as a leisure/social activity.
When the #covid19 started* and everything shut down including #PublicTransport, guess who WITHOUT CARS were able to get around and travel long distance? #Bikers #cyclists โ๏ธ
(Though I can't imagine getting myself home on a bike with just 1 good arm. Hence a #FoldableBike. I can call my bro or hire a car to get home.)

So many accessories and #bicycle tips/tricks that I cannot use.

For one... I must never put my #bike upside down. ๐
I suppose I could if I got the two ends of the handlebar resting on top of bricks. ๐ค Nah, too much trouble.

So that elegant green 29er isn't mine. This big heavy chunk of metal with 26-inch wheels is! ๐โค๏ธ๐ฒ
Those who guessed I was getting a #MountainBike, you're right. Those who guessed I was getting an #eBike, you were right too. Can't remember if anyone guessed #FoldableBike. The poll was in my now-no-more mastodon.sandwich.net account.
It. Is. Heavy! ๐๏ธ
It was a struggle getting it home. Gonna be a challenge each time I wanna take it anywhere. #bikes #bicycles
