Saturday I did a practice ride on my twitchy wiggly 16" . I'm normally too lazy to ride, except on Sundays, unless there's a group ride. Yeah, I'm feeling good about myself. ๐Ÿคช Nothing wrong with the bike, it's just me. Hence, the practice. I much prefer the 26" one, really. ๐Ÿšด

Here's a photo of and my shoe at the killer grates. Why the shoe? Well, those grates aren't just dangerous for bikes. My foot sorta went in it. ๐Ÿ™„

When... um... somebody* got a flat yesterday and they asked for an air pump, I offered mine and they said it's no good for the tire because the tire is big, 26" x 1.95".

Is it good for anything? Did I just water my money? I guess I just leave this one for ๐Ÿ”ต๐Ÿšฒ eh?

โšช๐Ÿšฒ needs the serious battery-powered air pump, which I do already have at home. It's just so heavy. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

Oh, is a 26" . ๐Ÿ˜ƒ It folds, but it's huge and heavy. Nothing like those Bromptons or Dahon .

My other is , a 16" Japan surplus. It's a but also nothing like those fancy expensive ones. It has a basket and rear rack. I plan to use it for small errands and short trips ๐Ÿ˜

I mostly practice with . Feels more stable. Not easy riding on small wheels with no , especially for li'l ol' me. ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Wait. You mean:
A of a while it is sipping latte and eating biscotti?
And the of the plant is taken while I'm ?
๐Ÿ˜…

Ah, I'm reminded how i used to drive around with my li'l โค๏ธ sitting in a cupholder attached to the aircon vent of the car -- so it could get more sun.

Perhaps I can do that with ๐Ÿšฒ ๐Ÿค” hmm...

To those who don't know,
long story short:
the jade plant died.

Not because of joyrides. ๐Ÿš—
Root rot. ๐Ÿ’€

Thanks. ๐Ÿ™‚ Yeah, it's an . But I hardly use the power features. I only learned to use the throttle and pedal assist recently, thanks to kind strangers who showed me how.

I love my . ๐Ÿ˜Š I chose it as my -- meaning no more upgrades and selling/swapping. But then I found out only wheels 20" or smaller are allowed on our metro. So I also got me an old 16" . ๐Ÿ˜

I really need to get the handlebar/stem on my 26" adjusted a little higher* and closer* to me. Waiting to get an appointment to get it serviced. Maybe I can do it myself but I'm worried about getting the wrong parts/sizes. It's not complicated, is it? I think I can longer once I get it modified.

And my 16" surplus foldie needs new grips, I think. I find that I end my practice due to hand fatigue/pain due to the grip. Or do I just get padded gloves? ๐Ÿค”
