#GoodMorning#Gravel! What a beautiful set of colours in the #Cybina valley #forest! Also, that’s the 3rd day in a row I set out into the rain forecast and I get nothing…😂
@ssamulczyk thanks, decathlon sportswear is like lidl sportwear, sometimes you find really good and lasting basic pieces, you only have to look and wait for them.
@Jay23Jay I have a few pieces from them and I was always happy. I really don’t like their cycling shoes.
Never owned a thing from Lidl, though. I’ve seen some nice things sold in there in the UK, but cycling is only mildly popular in Poland, so they rarely bother.
@elieuw Mine are still young (8, 5, 1) and unspoiled by modern "technology". They don't know what a shithole internet is and they actually prefer and enjoy outdoors.
We will try to avoid screens as long as possible, while building awareness how useful but also dangerous it might be.
For the time being they enjoy climbing, ice skating, cycling, Lego and playgrounds. In a few years the oldest one will destroy me on a bicycle (he can already maintain ~20km/h), the middle on is building up!😅
Yesterday was a surprising #RoadBike day… I was ready to go out with little Frank, but only then I’ve noticed a flat tire on my #gravel#bicycle. It simply was faster to change shoes than fix the flat… I didn’t even have time to dust the bike off…🤡😂
I've also fixed the flat, so the bike is ready for the evening ride we've planned with my trusted night cycling friend/companion. It's gonna be fabulous, as always!😍
#GoodMorning#Gravel! 2°C and #fog so thick it instantly condensed on everything. I could have used some wipers on my shades… No wind, though, so I was having so much fun!🥰🫣
#GoodMorning from the #rain shithole!😂 Surprisingly, I’ve managed to squeeze myself into a weather window with almost no precipitation…🙈😁 I’ve taught #KidsOnBikes well, they’re not afraid to get wet!💪🏻
@metalbiker Yes, that’s a phone. Wide angle lense of iPhone 14 Pro. If I had to download footage from the cam to later process it somewhere I’d probably stop doing it…😂🙈
#GoodMorning freezer! It’s cold as hell today, with temperatures as low as 3°C in the morning… Woolen hat and socks smiled from the closet along with mandatory gloves…🤣 At least it was sunny…🙄
It was unbelievably cold today. 5°C felt like winter and I regretted I didn’t wear the winter jacket… I also started looking for some heated gloves, because I have no idea how I’m gonna survive the real winter…🤡
@ssamulczyk@cycling@rower I could recommend "lobster" or "split mitt" style country skiing mittens/gloves. Better than gloves because your adjacent fingers warm each other but your middle and index fingers aren't tied to each other. Maybe get a size larger than normal and you can wear thin merino wool gloves underneath if it's really cold. YMMV but heated gloves never ever seemed worth it even at -15°C.
This is what I mean https://varuste.net/en/p100526/swix-endure-split-mitt
À propos wątku znajomego z #threads - przed nami Jesień i coraz co krótsze dni. Nie zapominajcie o naładowaniu lampek i włączeniu ich o zmroku Wczoraj miałem "przyjemność" obserwacji pierwszych rowerowych Batmanów
nie bądźcie takimi debilami, miejcie jakieś światła sprawne.
@pgronkievitz@bobiko To jednak podnieśli do dwóch metrów wymagany dystans w PORD? Jak ostatnio sprawdzałem to był „bezpieczny odstęp, nie mniejszy niż metr”.
#GoodMorning#Swimming on a #Bicycle! The things we do for love…🥰 Torrential #rains are passing through Europe, but with the right gear everything is doable!😂🤡
@Cycling_Liz It started raining at night. There are places that look far worse now, but I’ve chosen not to go there…🤷🏻♂️😁
It was surprisingly pleasant and refreshing for 7°C!😂
I guess the worst rainfall is yet to come. We expect floods in Poland as the forecast says it’s gonna be 300l/m2 in 3 days.💀 Poznan is quite safe, though, with only local floodings (mostly bad draining). The river is well regulated in here and it doesn’t collect water from the mountains…😅
#GoodMorning#Cycling! We’re down from summer heat to 8°C and #rain! I was hesitant to go into the wet, but I guess I’m not made of sugar!😂 #KidsOnBikes aren’t either!🥰
#GoodMorning#Bornholm 🇩🇰! Today I’ve done a 115km tour around the island! It wasn’t that bad except the wind on the west coast and that nasty double digit kicker at #JonsKapel… I’m a little proud of myself!🥰
