If I’m famous for something, it’s my award-winning* avian images:
*[My avian photography has never won an award.]
To seize the picture of a fowl of prey in mid-flight with a fish in its talons is arguably certainly one of images’s biggest challenges. Considerably easier is getting an honest shot of some chickens, as I did this morning whereas passing by Yonkers:
Whereas there are individuals who do hold chickens on this space (I can hear the “cock-a-doodle-doo”-ing after I journey previous their homes), this was the primary time I’ve seen them merely operating free, and I can solely assume this implies Yonkers is now on the cusp of being overrun by feral poultry. In keeping with sure factions, migrants now are consuming up all of the animals, and but these scrumptious unprocessed Chick-fil-A sandwiches clearly really feel comfortable and are in a position to scratch round within the grime alongside the bike path fully unmolested. Alas, I now not know what to consider.
Sure, ours is a tradition of extremes, which comes into sharp aid round election time. I too am a person of extremes. For instance, someday I’m using a Roaduno, and the subsequent I’m on a classic Y-Foil, which is basically the Anti-duno:
It’s nonetheless carrying its Vermont gravel mustache:
And sure, this previous week I did actually have a name with one of many engineers who designed the Y-Foil, and I now no extra about this bicycle than maybe another layperson on this planet.
As for the Roaduno and its pending dingle-ization, I think the issue is a worn freewheel not cooperating with a brand new chain, and can set up a brand new one imminently [update below!].
I’m extraordinarily grateful for all of your assist and ideas over the previous few days, even when most of them had been most likely incorrect.
Could your weekend run as easily as a well-tuned drivetrain.
***UPDATE***
I’ve put in a brand-new freewheel and it’s working superbly!
Clearly the issue is that the freewheels I’d been utilizing beforehand had been too worn:
So for those who’re organising a Roaduno as a dingler, do your self a favor and begin with all new drivetrain parts.
You’re welcome.
