But when I'm being active, if I do that, I end up soaking my inner clothing layers with sweat and end up freezing even worse. Even wool inner layers don't prevent that. #cycling #bicycle

- Consciously point the wheel the opposite way I’m turning.
- Lean the bike the appropriate amount.
- Let the front wheel turn according to the caster effect to stabilize.
And lately, I've started consciously noticing the feedback from #3, so I can get a better feel for for the bike turns.

I call this "N+1 Engineering". (Original) #cycling #bicycle
I discovered that the existing Velo Orange decaleur wouldn't work because the head tube on my new Crust Romanceur 4.0 was much longer than the one on my Soma Stanyan, so I decided to just set up a second decaleur using the existing Gilles Berthoud mount.

But speaking as a keen cyclist (back of the pack age group hack), I’m all in favour. Ebikes are still bikes. They just make it more accessible to the general public, and that’s a good thing.

@clover and I went on a day trip to go see the recently opened Beverly Bridge on the Palouse to Cascades Trail. She wasn't too impressed with it, but both its classic design and what it symbolized for #cycling in Washington inspired me.

While I've gotten a decent handle on white balance, I'm still working on getting a good overall exposure. Photos in my past albums were far too bright, so I'm working on finding a good level.

All of those are good options; I'd have no qualms about running any of them.
Honestly, my advice - especially if you're the type who upgrades bikes regularly - would be to go with the pedal-based power meters over crank based. I'm eyeing off a replacement for my 2017 Roubaix, for a number of reasons, and the main options I'm seeing out there are all 12 speed, which is not (at least officially) compatible with my Quarq spider power meter. That's... mildly painful, to say the least. I opted for the Quarq because at the time, there were no SPD-SL pedal power meter options available.
Good luck.

That said, I'm reasonably fit and young, so I don't have to be as careful. Definitely applying sunscreen, though!

Been playing around with RAW photo editing in #Darktable for the past week. I have a lot of it down, but I could really use a tool for checking the tint of grey surfaces. (1, 2, 3, 4) #photography #photog #photo #photos
The photos here are from my usual route through Woodland Park by #bicycle , which I discovered by old-fashioned wayfinding. #cycling #seabikes
