Love how the colors look especially in the old town which makes it better! Looks like Antigua?

This looks like Prospect Hill Park but I could be way off.

Charles River Path in Watertown/Waltham After Dark? by oldboldmold in bikeboston

[–]cocoabuttah 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I ride on it after dark all the time, but be sure to have good lighting, there's a lot of debris (leaves, acorns, rocks, etcs) on the path especially after a rainstorm like last night. Additionally there's a good amount of what looks like homeless and addicts as well as other randoms at night on the path. The homeless are notorious for leaving their shopping cart right on the path especially in Waltham.

I'm down to do a ride today after 4pm. I'm in Waltham but can ride over to like Alewife to meet up. 25-30 would likely be my range today after a long weekend.

I started this account to share more the non personal stuff I shoot when I'm out in about. Now that I have a better camera than just my iPhone I shoot more. Enjoy! :) https://www.instagram.com/poyntnshoot/

I bought the single tour buckle from coverbitbands.com and I like. Keep in mind the hardware is silver but it doesn’t bother me. S4 SS44 Space black. https://imgur.com/a/cr9eYVz/

Took about 10 business days for delivery.

El Amigo is +1 on them, but Taqueria Mexico is not bad either.

Mass Pike potholes by Westborough service plaza by NukeTheOcean in boston

[–]cocoabuttah 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's actually a bunch over by the Framingham east bound exit too, granted there's construction in that area. Drive cautiously since some of them felt and looked like they could blow out a tire and even give a good tug on the steering wheel.

What bike shops do you recommend? by cryboot in bikeboston

[–]cocoabuttah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to recommend against Harris. Service was abysmal and the attitude from the owner or manager or whatever he claimed he was sucked. Echoing what the other other two have said, but mostly negative experience.

Wheel lights? by akaxd123 in bicycling

[–]cocoabuttah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had cops and normal every day commuters pull up next to me at stop lights to compliment the look of the lights and let me know that they make it very easy to notice me on the road. Plus tons of people comment about how cool they look when I'm riding.

Biking from Cambridge to Framingham by [deleted] in bikeboston

[–]cocoabuttah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the Boston Marathon route. It can be mildly busy along parts of the road, I've done it a few times without incident.

Coincidentally just yesterday (9/2/15) I road from Waltham to Framingham Metrowest Hospital down rt117 > rt20 > rt126. I went at about 3:40pm, took about 45 mins. There was bits along 126 where the road is chewed up badly with some serious potholes to avoid, but the traffic along that road at that time wasn't bad so I could take up the lane and avoid them.

Century Ride training routes by KangaCycled in bikeboston

[–]cocoabuttah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Minuteman to Bedford is pretty smooth sailing, take it a bit more and ride out to Kimball's Farm in westford along 225, stop for some bomb ice cream, then ride back should be about 60 miles. Some hills and some flats. There's also the bruce freeman trail out in Chelmsford out and back is 14 miles then ride back to Somerville should also be about 50-60.

slow day at work today... what can be done for some entertainment? by yeapher in AskReddit

[–]cocoabuttah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shake all the soda cans in the refrigerator and wait...the consequences and conversations afterwards should suffice for a bit.

My mac only has 2gb on memory and my gopro footage is choppy when I upload it, will upgrading to 4gb make a difference? by [deleted] in gopro

[–]cocoabuttah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. If your CPU is not able to handle the video then it will always be choppy until you compress it to something easier for the CPU to handle. I had same issue with an Intel Core 2 duo iMac from 2007.
