  1. Shout outs for exceptionally helpful and cheerful service on today's errands:

    ⭐ Nico Cerna, mechanic at Peninsula Bike Works in Monterey peninsulabikeworks.com/ , who promptly took care of our tires after a run through sharp, broken car parts on California Highway 68 at Olmsted Rd (yes, report to Caltrans csr.dot.ca.gov/ - bikemonterey.org/where-to-repo). #LocalBikeShop

    ⭐ Emory, carryout helper at Trader Joe’s, MRY, who made short work of packing our cold things on ice in our panniers.

  6. Picked it up again and my old/beater/hack/“touring” bike is so much nicer to ride! Maybe I’ll wait less than 13 years before having it serviced again, rather than bodging things along when absolutely necessary and otherwise ignoring it… as I said, it’s surprising there wasn’t more wrong with it!

    Great service from my local bike shop, I’m taking them my Dutch bike next week.

  11. When I got my Tern, I didn't think that my panniers fit, so I took them back to my #LocalBikeShop, and they showed me how to open the brackets a bit wider to go on. No trouble after that.
    Generally, knee rehab includes cycling because it strengthens the surrounding muscles. Of course, you should stop if an injury is exacerbated.
    Biking is SO awesome for mental health! Glad you're getting out there.

  16. Today a local man whose family has one Rad bike and whose other bicycles are, to his great satisfaction, Tern bikes, brought this Rad news to our attention. He’s bummed they don’t have ALL Terns. bicycleretailer.com/industry-n

    That Rad news is another reason we’re grateful that two extraordinary bike industry leaders — Larry Pizzi and Dale Aguas — steered us in the right direction. Years ago Larry told us about Bosch batteries; and in 2024, Dale of @ternbicycles (which use Bosch batteries) pointed us to a #TernBicycles model very well suited to our needs, the #TernNBD. #Monterey Bay #LocalBikeShop Current eBikes assembled our Tern NBD P8i, and also provides 24 months of unlimited Standard Tune-ups + ongoing support and care.

    We’re so glad to have the quality of Bosch and Tern, and also very happy with Current’s service. sfba.social/@bikemonterey/1166

  21. Adventures in the community and in the kitchen this week. Jarred another batch of #sauerkraut, which has rapidly become a favourite condiment. I took a delightful class to make fish tacos with freshly-made corn tortillas at the Milner Library.
    Yesterday's trip to the #LocalBikeShop was made under brilliant blue skies. Today was very foggy and frosty weather, with frazil pans getting larger on the river.

  26. Kleine Überraschung auf dem Weg #MdRzA heute Morgen in der Stadt. Vermisst jemand nen 5,5mm-Inbusschlüssel? Hat sich in mein Hinterrad gebohrt.
    Heute könnte es sich lohnen, dass ich ein gutes Verhältnis zu einem lokalen Reparaturbetrieb pflege.

    Make good friends with the most convenient and helpful #LocalBikeShop in your area and don't be shy about asking them what seem like silly questions. Also, pay them to do anything you don't know how to do. I've been riding bicycles for most of my 67 years and I have never learned to change a flat tire. Shops are happy to take our money for these things. Get them to sell you the correct pump for the tires you have. You're learning a new and useful skill.

  34. @J_aa_p so not purchased through local bike shop. I hope what you get is everything you expect! It sounds amazing!

    My point is that #LocalBikeShop is critical #bicycleinfrastructure, worth funding in our communities, like for support & maintenance most of us need sometimes.

  38. @J_aa_p I had a similar story last year, #wattwagons for their “supercharged” belt-driven (single) Hound with a 3kWh battery pack. It took months of hounding them about my order to get it delivered. I was honestly disappointed by the quality of some parts and the build, but dealing with it by being my own mechanic… and never mail ordering an e-bike again.

    SO happy to live in a bike-friendly neighbourhood where there's a #LocalBikeShop in every direction! I got my summer tires swapped out for winter tires today. $42 CAD while I waited. I've decided that bike maintenance is NOT a skill I intend to learn or buy equipment for in this lifetime! Kudos to those who learn the skills and do the things.
