37degF out on the ride home today.
Lady next to me was looking at me... then she does this
bundle-up-shiveriing motion. LOL.
No, it's above freezing, not cold at all. What are you talking about?
See the jacket and helmet? The red indicator for my heated grips? I'm
probably warmer right now than you are in your cage.

You have a helmet cam running on every ride?

IG, you expected anything else?

And Bart, yup, that too! :-)

If I knew when some douchenozzle in a cage was going to "not see me" and
do something dumb, i'd just avoid the incident altogether.

So yes... same reason I wear a helmet every time I ride... I don't plan
on using it every time I ride.

Most of the files end up in the trash. But every now and then there's
something good like that.

Ok, well in that case you need cameras pointing in all directions. Or perhaps a follow-cam on a hovercraft in the vicinity. Or something.

I've considered the hovercraft follow-cam before. It'd make wrecks like
this one a lot more fun to watch:

cycled 200 km (~175 miles?) through the netherlands last saturday.

picture from the start.

Actually I think a picture at the end of the ride would've been more entertaining.

well, yes it was dark.

and, I must admit, some problems were there, with the eyes and tears and the glasses...

but all in all it was a successfull ride.

also pretty qute:

Nice warm day to take the bike out, eh? :)

[#] Thu Mar 15 2012 21:19:19 EDT from Animal @ Uncensored

No such thing as bad weather, just inadequate gear. :)

[#] Fri Mar 16 2012 11:08:07 EDT from dothebart @ Uncensored

yes indeed.

24 degrees celsius right now.

my way to work now looks like that:

in a bigger context:

so the road is closed... *gna*

one can circumvent the barricades with the bike... but most probably its going to become a big construction site the next half year, and I'll have to find another way there :(

Well then it's time to start taking the helicopter to work, isn't it?

(biking to work would be sooooo cool)

[#] Thu Mar 22 2012 07:29:05 EDT from dothebart @ Uncensored

yea... or maybe add some dragon wings and just fly over it, since its a downhill track..

the other alternative is using the cyclocross bike:

and riding through the woods.
