Thank you to the two folks who bought my music during Bandcamp Friday and helped me towards paying down some disability-related costs!

Thanks to the other swell person who contributed directly via https://paypal.me/plantedu !

Am Montag gab es ein gemeinsames Treffen zum Mittagessen in Stadelhofen in der #fraenkischenschweiz . Zu 10 sind wir eingeflogen, bunte Mischung aus #velomobil en, #recumbenttrike und #liegerad .
Gestartet zu dritt über #forchheim , #ebermannstadt das Tal hinauf über #heiligenstadt auf den Nebenstraßen, zurück dann zu viert.
Es war herrlich, aber auch sehr heiß.
Kaffeestopp musste aber dennoch sein, frei nach @radlpit integraler Bestandteil und nicht verhandelbar, gut so!

Montag, 8. September 2025, 19:00 Uhr #Liegerad-Treffen in #Berlin, im Restaurant "Yak & Yeti" Südwestkorso 69 A (Ecke Görresstraße 29), 12161 Berlin.

Die Terminankündigung auf https://fahrradtermine-berlin.de/event/liegerad-treffen-auch-fur-interessierte-3 funktioniert wieder, wird aber leider nicht automatisch von @relay @events getrötet?! @wikinaut @spmrider

This afternoon's bike trip was a 37 km round trip in one hour and ten minutes to collect a 20 kg sack of "greensand" olivine for the garden.

I think it's a good example of the efficiency of velomobiles: how they make human power even more effective than when riding a normal bike. Even on the return journey with a headwind and loaded with the sack of sand, it was easy to keep the speed above 35 km/h.

Being able to stow a lot of things inside the aerodynamic form of the bike helps a lot with efficiency. You feel extra weight when accelerating, not so much once you get going.

And why the olivine ? I calculated a few weeks back that in the worst case this last winter our heating could have emitted 105 kg of CO2. This sack is enough to absorb about a fifth of that amount from the atmosphere.

Each time we plant things indoors or in our garden we add a bit of olivine.

Once humanity (especially those of us in the highly emitting richer countries) has reduced emissions by a lot, it's possible to make a bit of a dent by using a product like this. But there's no chance of compensating for ever larger emissions by trying to mine ever larger amounts of olivine.

Suddenly appearing weird thoughts: Does a (2-wheeled) #recumbent #cargobike exist? How could it look like? An LWB longjohn with the cargobay below the long and possibly slightly higher than usual main frame? An SWB longtail recumbent? Maybe even with #Zox-style FWD?

Yes, I'm aware of the Hase Pino, but it only counts half. 😉 And yes, I'm also aware of cargo quads with a recumbent style cockpit like the one of @glightly.

So far I only found this #AtomicZombie #DIY plan: https://www.atomiczombie.com/dutchman-cargo-bike-diy-plan/
