I endorse lights by Light & Motion:

1- I've own three Vis 180 tail lights for 5-10 years and they still work great!

2- I broke off a rubber port cover, and can still buy replacements!

I originally bought them because lights that blink-off are a bad idea. At night in a dark area, you become invisible for a moment. Instead, this light can "warble" from dim to bright to dim; it is never off!

The repaired light, with the old broken bit on the table:

Spread this to discuss/encourage bicycle commuting

Why not existing tags like or ?

I was in a G+ circle with thousands of worldwide members. I want to rekindle that sense of community with whimsical fun and inspiration to keep biking to work.

It was fun and silly. It was always positive/encouraging, rarely negative. It was eye opening, seeing how others commute (snow!)

Post something tagged with !

Attached is the Zombie Raccoon mascot logo:

I'd like to revive a game from (more on this later)

The game was called "What's in the box?" To play, post a picture of a shipped purchase (feel free to obscure for privacy) and ask people to guess . Serious answers are fine, but silly answers are better!

To kick this off, here's a 4" long Leatherman and a quarter for scale. Yes, this is extra silly; I've not received a package this spartan before!

Cycling while wet? Tech clothing option changes are afoot. cyclingnews.com/news/pfc-bans-

Personally I lean more towards layers involving wool. It's all about staying warm rather than attempting to stay dry while sweating in a rainstorm.

On this day. 2016. I remember this ride. Morning . Photo data says this is around 6:30 am. This is outside a local brewery and tap house. It was interesting being there when no one else was and it was so quiet. I enjoy early morning and night rides because we get so used to seeing everything in daylight. Thereā€™s so much more than that.

Thanks to smartphones we now all take far more photos than necessary. Over the years on the I've taken thousands. I had stints where I tried to take 'self portraits' using tripods, radio triggers or simply setting the camera on a post with a timer. I like to go back 'on this day' and see if I commuted and took a photo. Here's one from 11/9/2009. I'd found a frame someone trashed in the woods. Weird. I had long hair then.

Cool watching all the peeps show up on . Thereā€™s a lot of folks on the out there. When COVID landed I started working from home and that ended my commutes for the most part after a good 20 years or so. This was my first commute in New Brunswick, in 2007. Fatbikes hadnā€™t really materialized yet. I rode an old Specialized Rockhopper Iā€™d saved from a dumpster and converted to a fixed-gear. Good times in the Maritimes.
