And our last question of the week:

Q8. Show us a photo from something cycle-related from the past week! It doesn't have to be anything special at all.

If you'd like to, share one and tell us about it!

About a week ago, I was out biking and came across a “FREE” pile of stuff out on someone’s sidewalk. There was this woven runner rug in the pile. I was afraid it might be torn, or stained, or reeking of cat pee, but it seemed OK and so I threw it in my bike basket. I just got to washing and drying it today, and it’s awesome! 🧶😊

On that same day, but in a different spot, I also stumbled on a set of Tibetan prayer flags (now hanging outside my home) and a large, empty garden container. It was my lucky freebie day, I guess. I would have missed these things if I hadn’t been out on my bike. 🪴🚴🏽‍♂️

Conclusion of my #retirement #bikepacking tour on #Brompton folding #bike : 1,027 km in 19 stages.Thank you for your patience. Thanks also to bikerouter.de and cyclers.app for routing.The daily post here was intended as incentive for all those over 65 with health issues—like myself—who do not yet dare to go on such long bike tours.

Q1. Where are you posting from today? I found a used keyboard (piano, not for typing) on the sidewalk this week and it works! I had been looking for one for a project. Did you come across any good luck this week?

Jalopnik: No, Defensive Walking Isn't The Solution For Road Deaths

"...Everyone can agree that this is bad, which is why so many organizations have committed themselves to curbing road deaths. The problem is how those organizations, from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration itself to NPR, are addressing the issue: Telling the pedestrians and cyclists how to alter their behavior to better accommodate cars. It's victim-blaming, it's bull, and it's not the solution we need."

Made it to the pub at Harbottle on the bike today! Fortified with lemon cake and coffee, I made it back home again too, even conquering the notorious Mûr de Peels, albeit very, very slowly. #Northumberland #Cycling #BikeTooter

A8. Our office building recently banned electric bicycles from using the basement cycle storage due to insurance restrictions, so this week I had to risk locking up outside the building until they introduce alternative secure storage. Here's the view from my desk on the 6th floor, looking down through the window and trying to make sure it's still there…

Scenes from the mid-day ride.

Sinner Mango velomobile for sale. I've been asked to sell it on behalf of a friend.

This particular bike has actually barely been used. When it was ridden the owner always took care so it's also never been crashed or scratched and therefore never needed to be repaired.

Due to being stored indoors it also shows no signs of gelcoat damage due to sunlight.

Actually, though it was made in 2008 this bike looks almost like it left the factory yesterday.

I don't think I've ever seen a cleaner second hand machine.

I ride a Mango myself and I find it to be an excellent bike. It's quick, suitable for use in all weather (I commuted all year round in mine) and also has enough inside capacity for a tent / sleeping bag etc. if you want to go cycle touring without any aerodynamic penalty.
