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

"Idaho stops" or "rolling stops" have been legal for cyclists in Washington since October 2021. #seabikes #cycling #bicycle

Rim Brakes Vs Disc Brakes: Which Really Are Better?
#cycling #bicyclelike this
I told the mechanic, I will save the carbon rims for when I get a disk brake bike.

Went on an enjoyable yet rigorous #bicycle ride this morning, following a loop I always enjoy. Despite snacking on an energy bar in Lake Forest Park, I ended up bonking while riding through Lake City, so I had to stop at the Metropolitan Market in Laurelhurst. Since the energy bar didn't help, I thought to try a sugary sports drink for a quick boost, and it certainly did the trick! I guess that's why they contain so much sugar, since a low calorie drink wouldn't be so helpful when running low on energy. #cycling (Album)
While out, I noticed several booths for #BikeEverywhereDay scattered about, which was pretty cool. What was less cool was that the Burke–Gilman Trail was being blocked off in the University District, and I'm still not sure why. #seabikes #Seattle

Checked out the partially gravel #bicycle route along the shore of Union Bay yesterday. The relative quiet and scenery were quite nice! #cycling #seabikes (Album)
While riding back home through Fremont, I saw that the #Seattle Fire Department was fighting a fire in an old house a little up the hill, which explained the smell of smoke everywhere. I asked my local bike shop about it and they said that it was a training exercise paired with a controlled demolition.

But in rain disc brakes works good. Wet discs makes some sound then too...
Some lady almost did a left turn into me on Dexter Ave at Valley St. No stop signs for either of us. She was looking right at me and she didn't even stop. She only didn't T-bone my left side because I swerved as she entered my path of travel.
The only traffic control device for either of us was a yellow flasher, as she was oncoming traffic prior to turning.

My paranoia and anxiety worsen as I experience more life.
For example, I used to love #bicycle touring on the open highway, but now I'm too scared that some driver will run me down, intentionally or otherwise. #cycling (Original)
While #motorcycle riding isn't as safe as driving, at least I can get going fast enough to avoid a lot of the situations a bicycle cannot. Plus, a motorcycle has much more road presence than a bicycle. (Original)
