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!

@ascentale @bikenite Some quickies from today's Brompton World Championships.

1. There's a dress code though a lot of people ignored it today. Not me, although I was sad not to win the Best-Dressed competition.

2. The start is Le Mans style, all the bikes lined up on one side of the track and the riders on the other.

3. Zio Bici (Uncle Bike) on his double-decker Brompton. He has the best, friendliest Brompton-only shop in Rome and is a pleasure to know and to ride with.

@ascentale @bikenite A8. I was in Toronto yesterday without my bike, but I got a few fun cycling-related photos. The one on the left shows a cycling rack as cycling art in Kensington. The photo at top right shows bike racks at a community school filled with baby strollers. And the one at bottom right shows Harbord Street being rebuilt with cycling infrastructure.

#BikeNite #Toronto #BikeTO

A portion of a newly paved street recedes into the distance. It’s still under construction, but the concrete barriers for separated bike lanes can be seen. In the distance, paving equipment can be seen.

A bike rack that’s also and sculpture that spells out “Kensington” with what appears to be a giant bike chain and gears. The rack has plenty of room for bikes. On the wall behind the rack there a wall with a colourful mural that features several faces.

@ascentale @bikenite One of the better bits of cycle infrastructure in Tirana, a protected two-way cycle lane on Bulevardi Zogu I. #BikeNite

View from across the street of a crosswalk that briefly interrupts a two-way cycle lane protected by a decorative steel fence, a hedge, and rows of oak trees. An attempt is made to keep drivers out of this area of the cut-through with short squat concrete bollards. On the side closer to the camera, there is a row of shiny stainless steel Sheffield cycle racks. A woman with long black hair that cycled from the left makes a left turn onto a perpendicular street.

@ascentale @bikenite A8 #BikeNite Nights are drawing in so mid-ride snaps are becoming few and far between, but this was as we headed out towards a local hill the other day as the light faded. It's Whitbarrow which is our local and very much smaller version of the Dawn Wall.

@bikenite A8. I guess I can show off my keyboard find from A1. Weekend project to clean it up a bit.

#BikeNite

A black folding bike stands against a textured wall, with a keyboard (musical) attached to its rear rack. A pink water bottle is secured on the bike, and the background features a mix of blue and gray tiles. The bike is displayed in an urban setting.

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?

@daihard @ascentale @realSiegfried @bikenite A friend of mine is 75, climbs in the gym twice a week (occasionally outside), rides several times a week (got an e-bike at 73), I think he may have given up the 125 mile rides each way up over the sierras and back (he’d ride all three passes in the central sierra each summer).

Don’t plan for a end, just keep going adjusting as you need to. Only stop when you can’t go any further. (That’s my plan). #BikeNite

@ascentale @bikenite A8 #BikeNite This week it's a photo from a fat bike ride out along the coast to Anthony Gormley's 'Another Place' art installation. There are 100 of the cast iron figures stood over a 3km stretch of beach looking out over Liverpool Bay, hiding and showing as the tide comes in and out. They've been there for almost 20 years and have brought a focus and visitors to the area which was somewhat nondescript before.

A beach with marker post in the foreground and four figures stood on a glistening low tide with mountains on the skyline on the opposite side of a bay.

A8. I'm appreciating how most businesses I walked by here in this part of Madison, Wisconsin, had bicycle parking of some sort, even if not the best kind. Or they use it for other purposes.

A8. Here's one from my first ride in a long while, last Sunday. A neighbourhood ride for the European Week of Mobility. I wrote about it on my site.

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…

@ascentale @bikenite

#BikeNite #Cycling #BikeTooter

The view to the ground through a window on the sixth floor of an office building. There's a triangle of green grass at the top of the picture. Nearer the building is a covered bike rack, in which is parked a couple of motorbikes and some pushbikes. Mine's the orange one, right in the middle.

@ascentale @bikenite A8 one of the guys at the group ride mentioned he had had prostate surgery recently, and got this bike seat to receive pressure on the area.

I see no reason to continue riding on a cheap, uncomfortable, came with the bike seat, so I took a photo so I could look into getting one for myself.
