A virtual hoard of the shiny things I find on the internet.

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

 

(via Instagram) So this happened.  I rode back from the bike shop today, sticking to the Metropolitan Branch Trail, so just over 5 miles. I walked maybe half a mile of that, because by the time I got back into Brookland I just couldn’t face the couple of inclines between 8th St. and home.  I had to stop a couple of times along the way for a few minutes each time, and i was seriously wishing I had some water with me, but considering today was literally the first time I have ridden a bike since I was 19 or so, I’m pretty proud of myself. Of course, now I’m sore, exhausted, and my butt is bruised, but these pale in the face of victory. And no, there’s no Cyclemeter map because I completely failed to turn it back on after the first time I stopped. N00b. Anyway, my new friend needs a name. Suggestions?
