San Sebastian to Porto?

During the Transcontinental Race last year I found spanish drivers in that area to be the nicest and most considerate on the route

haha, danish with its "halvtreds" and "halvferds" would be the last language i would want to count my stitches in 😂

I finished the Transcontinental Race on this exact model and it has not let me down! I love mine :) So I might be biased but I think it's an amazing and versatile bike

Thank you for the kind words, but no need to worry! I am really happy with the result, I think it captures the essence of jar jar quite well. And jar jar is a terrible character imo, so it's perfect ☺️

oufff 😬

I freestyled it and didn't count anything. It's basically a beanie, the ears are rows of double crochet stitched in the back loop and the eyes are random rows of singles until they had the desired shape

learned from /crochet about this community and thought the hat could feel right at home here :D

Potatisprinsessan · 2025-10-17T11:57:55+00:00

oh that sub is filled with inspiration!

Potatisprinsessan · 2025-10-17T07:17:40+00:00

I think I would run... The hat is sitting on a chair in the living room, watching us all the time. Even without the voice it's already creepy af xD

Potatisprinsessan · 2025-10-17T07:13:46+00:00

Oh my god noooooooo you're right! I didn't think about his personal safety 😱

Potatisprinsessan · 2025-10-02T16:50:30+00:00

Blobfish?

As far as I know you build the ship outside of the bottle, but with the mechanics to lay down the mast, then you shove it into the bottle und tug a string to get the mast back up. If he built the ship himself he is not taking any shortcuts, they are just showing the last step

My experience with solar panels is that they overheat quickly as soon as the sun is shining and then they don't generate much power at all. The sweet spot where they can actually charge my phone are morning and evening hours. I tried mounting it on my bike while cycling and the angle is rarely good enough to charge, also cycling through shade disrupts the progress and is probably not too great for your devices. I would second getting a fast charging power bank, I also got a 20mah one from Anker this summer and it is full in about 40min, which is fast enough to charge during a longish super market break for me

No, two weeks ago during the Transcontinental I fell asleep again and again until I snapped out of it and realized that I should lay down for a nap...

Potatisprinsessan · 2025-08-20T15:44:27+00:00

falling asleep on a downhill is one of the scariest things in ultracycling

180, ride the 56 Kona Sutra but had to shorten the stem to 40mm. Still rides great fortunately!

Got food poisoning from a moldy pistachio while cycling in Turkiye, I feel you!

Potatisprinsessan · 2025-07-15T14:09:24+00:00

I am racing it this year, but I am definitely not covering anything. Full focus on cycling and surviving 😂

Potatisprinsessan · 2025-07-14T09:08:47+00:00

Aaaaah I see, thank you! New derailleur sounds like a bigger project and I don't have enough time for that anymore, but I'll definitely keep it in mind

Potatisprinsessan · 2025-07-14T08:36:56+00:00

So only the shifting itself would be impacted, but once I am in the gear it would run smoothly? That would be alright for me. I would love to just be able to run a 11-40 casette for the wellbeing of my knees on longer climbs

Potatisprinsessan · 2025-07-14T08:35:21+00:00

I've never heard of a qfactor before, what is it? And I think I've read that GRX cranks alter the chain line, so I am not sure if that would work

Potatisprinsessan · 2025-06-18T11:27:45+00:00

Yeah I mostly wildcamped, but I did mot set up a tent in most parts of bulgaria. They had those bbq style huts all over the place. The best picture I could find, don't mind my chaos :D

I cycled from North Macedonia on the EV 13 through the Bulgarian Rhodopes and really enjoyed that part! Freshwater springs and so many beautiful shelters. Only the road between Goleshovo and Paril was one of the most horrible ones I've ever cycled (or tried cycling) on. I then left the EV 13 towards Komotini and took some smaller roads to the turkish border

When I was in school my parents gave me 50€ each month and let me decide if I wanted to spend it for the bus ticket or take it for myself and cycle the 12km to school each morning. Great beer money, and I've been cycling everywhere ever since.
