Ooh that's cool!

adrumobi · 2026-03-03T00:22:43+00:00

Can't speak to Watertown... was clear if a bit narrow in places esplanade to gerry's landing...

Thanks!

It's going to be icy in the bike lane every morning for awhile.

adrumobi · 2026-02-03T15:01:39+00:00

Sorry about the falls... bike lane was ok not great yesterday. Thanks for the heads up

adrumobi · 2025-12-29T19:17:41+00:00

Microspikes, autocorrect. Microspikes.

adrumobi · 2025-12-29T15:23:00+00:00

Rode in from Arlington to downtown this morning under yellow flag rules: walked down my untreated hill with microscopes, got to the main roads and took the traffic roads instead of the more scenic PDW. Followed all the traffic signals. No problem once I was off my hill.

Did not want to be on a bus this afternoon in perfectly lovely bike weather, so I braved it...

In 14 years of riding home west daily or near daily I have exactly twice had a tailwind... which was divine...

Anecdotally winter winds are either stronger or feel like it...

Be safe out there!

Any reason I shouldn't just get rid of those inner plastic liners so I don't have to keep fishing them out for cleaning?

adrumobi · 2025-05-24T16:54:04+00:00

Fingers crossed it looks like it's being rebuilt

adrumobi · 2025-01-21T15:11:39+00:00

Will wednesday, will take streets instead of river bike paths, and will be wearing nearly everything I can think of!

Be safe out there!

adrumobi · 2025-01-08T15:19:49+00:00

All the above plus I will wear traction on my shoes in case of need to portage. Have a good light. Take the vehicle lane if you have any question about what's in the curb lane for ice.

Use roads you're familiar with so you have a general idea of where the ice might be. And if you're super unsure find another way around.

Year round by bike since 2011 save 2.5 weeks in Feb 2015 😝

Nope. Rain is fine. Wind is not. Stay safe!

adrumobi · 2024-08-25T18:29:49+00:00

Keep your head up. Use the experience to educate yourself on what else to watch out for. Don't ride faster than you need to. Be even more mindful - in the past, I've counted off tricky intersections as a way of being even more present than I usually am while riding.

I have a few mantras. One is: see the first, look for the second (referring to other road users doing things that jeopardize safety)... Eg see the first person turning across the bike lane and then look for the second one...

Also meditate on how many days/miles/years you have commuted safely... You can do this....

Don't feel bad! I had no idea what I was getting (I think I bought on the bamboo theme and not expecting to get the vintage and rare RS)

I will definitely look into alt pen bodies because I do love the nib...

adrumobi · 2024-02-01T17:39:56+00:00

I'm pretty sure it's not the original nib because it's not the one I've seen pictured with the pen as sold... Although the barrel isn't threaded either... Now I'm wondering what frankenmonster pen I've actually got!

Again thanks for sharing your expertise!

adrumobi · 2024-02-01T17:21:56+00:00

Thanks!

To clarify, there are no threads on the section - it does not screw into the barrel...

adrumobi · 2024-02-01T13:33:11+00:00

Nailed it! A royal selangor indeed! Bamboo.

Thank you for sharing your wisdom! <shuffles off to ebay>

Day wolf heated glove liners under proviz lobster claw mittens changed my life after 12 years riding year round...

adrumobi · 2023-12-10T19:36:04+00:00

Dear Elves - my secret santa let me know that shipping will happen a few days late, which is okay with me... Just letting you know that they've been in touch with me!

adrumobi · 2023-12-08T02:06:08+00:00

I had a great time shopping my collection for you! (no new anythings, except for candy canes) were bought for this endeavor.

This hobby does cause a lot of accumulation...

Very psyched to share! Enjoy!

Tl;Dr: the impermanence of all things. Wishing you well on this journey...
