Road clipless (three-bolt) interests me…until I realize I can get most of the benefits with two-bolt shoes that have carbon fiber foot beds. :blobfoxthinkgoogly:
At the moment, my #cycljng is mainly limited by my cardiovascular system and energy. All of that time sick from respiratory illness was not kind to my fitness. :blobfoxgooglycry:
Tomorrow I’m planning to do clockwise „Rundtur på #Bornholm”, a #cycling trip around the island.
My side hurts, I guess from hitting a tree on a single track, but if I manage to get out at 4am I’m able to be back way before 10am - you know, family!😁😍
The wind and weather forecast seems to be favourable, going against 6-10km/h headwind in the beginning, to finish up with the wind. No rain (fingers crossed)!🙈
While I was riding my main #bicycle on gravel a couple days ago, I was able to easily rescue a front wheel slide.
And when I was riding it yesterday up a fairly steep bit of sandy gravel (for the city), I was able to get past wheelslip and just pedal slowly and softly in a low gear to get up the hill.
For our anniversary run of Rene Herse bikes—and for the bikes we ride in long-distance events—we wanted a better solution: a reliable needle-bearing headset that is Rinko-compatible. This is another project that had a long gestation period: We made the first prototypes three years ago. We ran them in Unbound XL (twice), in Paris-Brest-Paris, Arkansas High Country Race, Dark Divide 300 and many other rides and adventures. Along the way, we fine-tuned many details, both aesthetic and functional. We decreased stack height, lowered weight, and increased clearances to make sure the headset works smoothly and quietly under the harshest conditions. We tested and re-tested, and now the headsets are ready.
Found these cute old sheds (still in use!) in Woodland Park while exploring a new route with the knobby-ish gravel tires on my Soma Stanyan. :blobfoxthumbsup: (1)
Definitely getting better with the color calibration tool in #Darktable. Having the flexibility to pick any hue for the illuminant is very nice! :blobfoxgoogly:
