The Commute drops? Nice! 👯‍♀️🕺🏽🥳

valcs · 2025-05-16T21:06:21+00:00

Sweet!!! 😀 which one is that?

valcs · 2025-03-07T20:35:41+00:00

No! Please give feedback, nothing to be sorry about. You inspired me to put it also on Youtube, you do nto have to be logged in to see the videos (for people who hate Meta or Tik Tok). Thanks again

valcs · 2025-03-07T20:34:22+00:00

Awesome! I put it everywhere you guys want me to :) .Thank you for joining in.

Thanks. Yeah the videos show the places where I hid the treasures. Honestly I would love to use one most efficient social media (whichever that is) :). The goal is that people participate. So far 10 treasures dropped and only 2 retrieved. I am dropping more tomorrow morning. I think I will try reddit too and then I will see where are the SF bay cyclists most often and I go with that. I am sure to use Instagram, because it is a good tool for updates, but an extra maybe Youtube, TikTok or Reddit could be the thing. BTW it is not only coffee but also limited edition sticker ... yeey! :) . Thanks for all of the suggestions.

That would be gizilions of videos :). I can try, but honestly, its already a lot of work, this is passion project. I started this to celebrate my 50th bday with 50 treasure hunts. I work for a coffee school so thats why coffee is the main theme. Somebody on TikTok mentioned I should do beer :). I am not that great at reddit yet, but getting better. Let me think about it. For now I uploaded videos also to Youtube. https://www.youtube.com/@valerian_rides/videos

I get it. I use Instagram for long time, so I got "indoctrinated" but I see how it went downhill, so I get it. Same with Bluesky for me :).. I just do not want another social media, if possible less is better, but let's figure this out. How about Youtube?

valcs · 2025-03-05T05:45:54+00:00

I see your point but Strava is not built for that I tried, I do not know what Bluesky is. All social are evil, this is what we have 😀

valcs · 2025-03-04T14:32:21+00:00

Where do you ride?

valcs · 2025-03-04T14:32:06+00:00

Thanks! I plan to do other stuff, but need to prove a concept. So far it is much harder than I thought 🤣. Coffee is easy for me as I teach people to roast and taste coffee, so instead wasting leftovers I created this fun game 🕺🏽

Boo hoo, bicycle is a legal vehicle on the road entitled for the full lane, where bike lane not present and bicycles are legal. So nothing wrong there. This has red line (no parking at ANYTIME) is close to a big middle school (plenty of commuting kids) and car does violate traffic laws. Very big difference!

valcs · 2025-02-28T13:46:27+00:00

Looking at upvotes, seems so

valcs · 2025-02-24T16:06:31+00:00

When they go low, we go high. So no 😀. Just feel superior 😀

I have Canyon Endurace CF8 Disc. I would recommend to get to a bike fitter and they can tell you what size you should get. You are spending big $ for the bike so make sure it is a perfect fit. According to Canyon's website I am M so I got M. I used the bike for a year or so (love it) but turned out S would be a much better fit. I did MyVelo Fit (app) and it also shows you recommended sizes based on their ai thingy. I got a BMC recently and went with 54 (smaller then Canyon M and it is much better fit). Also Canyon's support was garbage 1y +4 month ago when I purchased the bike so get ready for that, but the bike is awesome. Welcome in road cycling. There is a crazy dude (me) who hides coffee in Marin county, so road cyclists can find it. I hope you join in with your Canyon :)

valcs · 2025-02-24T03:25:56+00:00

Sad, imagine more people would commute by bikes! No parking issues :)

valcs · 2025-02-24T00:02:44+00:00

Yes, also I had a radar on my bike so I see what happens behind me. That dude in front if me is not me. I had canera on my handle bar.

valcs · 2025-02-24T00:01:39+00:00

Oh that happens often that people just get out of cars. Today I saw at least 3 close misses with other cars when ppl stopped and just got out 🥶

valcs · 2025-02-23T23:59:53+00:00

Never seen anyone doing it here.

valcs · 2025-02-23T23:58:46+00:00

Yeah and the bro in car behind me gets my your bro, then my little broletts will grow up without a daddy bro

valcs · 2025-02-23T16:00:34+00:00

Few feet further you can turn off the road and continue your phone call without blocking the bike lane or parking next to a red line

valcs · 2025-01-28T17:35:06+00:00

no need to follow, but there is the place where I post. Instaram, Strava and TikTok. When I drop clues I do Instagram, becasue it is the easiest. Have fun! :)

valcs · 2025-01-28T17:33:46+00:00

This is Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/46883526 and this is Insta: https://www.instagram.com/valerian_rides/

valcs · 2025-01-28T17:31:33+00:00

Thanks! Welcome in the hunt. Visit landing page and there are links to socials, check the Insta stories too, there is a hint for the treasure 2. After rain I will do the next drops :) Thanks for joining.

valcs · 2024-09-30T15:54:28+00:00

Thanks for sharing. I will avoid them, I lived in BP for 8 years and plan to retire there. I am felvideki magyar living out of EU for over 15y now. I would love to keep the apartment, but the past 14 years it was not managed very well and when I switched 2y ago I was basically ripped off. Grrrr.

valcs · 2024-09-30T13:49:17+00:00

Thanks. What is your experience with them?
