Didn’t I point out the splendiferous hues of autumn yesterday?
Because the seasons change the fo–LOOK OUT, JORTS COMING THROUGH!
It’s the brand new “In your left.”
Jarring, isn’t it?
Oh, and would you have a look at that, I acquired a brand new bag!
See that? I didn’t must resort to the Electrical Techno-Paranoia in any case:
The bag is “out of inventory,” however whenever you’re me nothing is out of inventory:
Let’s simply say I’ve acquired connections within the Waxed Canvas Mafia.
See, you’ve acquired your Common Mafia:
Your Velvet Mafia:
And your Waxed Canvas Mafia:
I most likely shouldn’t say any extra otherwise you’re liable to search out me chopped up and stuffed right into a HappiSack:

In the event you see a kind of bouncing alongside on the OCA with a single foot hanging out of it you’ll understand it’s me inside:
As for my new bag, it could be too small to hide a physique, however It’s precisely what I want–simply large enough for snacks, gloves, and that type of factor:
Or perhaps a e-book and a few toys after I’m taking children to the park on Columbus Unmentionable Day:
And sure, that e-book does include biking references:
In fact the constable would have been positive if he had been using a Rivendell, a motorcycle so secure even a Scottie couldn’t knock you off it:
My infatuation with this bike stays as exuberant because the foliage, and it’s at house on every thing from easy roads:
To terrain of about this diploma of roughness:
So do you name this a “path?” Or is it technically a gravel street surfaced with extraordinarily massive gravel?
Both method, something past that on the Roaduno and I suppose you’re doing what these spoiled Gen-Zers at the moment name “underbiking.”
Talking of so-called underbiking, chances are you’ll recall I did some in Vermont on the Roaduno’s polar reverse, George Plimpton’s Y-Foil, a.ok.a. The Charity Experience Destroyer, a.ok.a. The Pumpkin Spice Nightmare:
Within the feedback on yesterday’s put up, which addressed the topic of yielding, there was some dialogue of gravel roads and large vans. As an inveterate city-slicker, after I discover myself on a gravel street, I in fact simply assume it exists fully for the sake of quaintness, and that I can rely on it being comparatively motor vehicle-free as a bonus:
“Wow, have a look at all that pristine gravel!,” I assumed to myself. “And no person else is even using on it!” However what I quickly realized is that not all gravel roads are created equal, and that a few of them are closely utilized by farmers. Furthermore, one of many gravel roads I selected was simply such a thoroughfare:
Whereas the drivers exhibited no outward hostility, I’m positive they had been considering to themselves, “What’s this asshole doing?” Anyway, all of that is to say I duly moved apart and dismounted when mandatory, although looking back I most likely ought to have made a video and ranted about how rural roads want extra protected bike lanes. Regardless, I made it to the ferry alive and intact:
And I didn’t even must squeeze a boob!
Which will or will not be a win, relying on the way you have a look at it.
