    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 paypal.me/plantedu !

  2. Kardokai ecovillage in Lithuania. I’d marked the village on the map but hadn’t got in touch beforehand. When I call the ecovillage’s number Raimundas picks up the phone. I explaine what I am up to, that I am in the neighborhood and that I’d love to come and say hello.

    To my surprise, Raimundas is happy to make time to show me round the ecovillage. When I arrive he offers me the guest house for the night and invites me for lunch. cyclingfortheplanet.net/index.

  3. Sorting out the race files for the first British Human Power Club meet of the 2026 season at Hillingdon Cycle Circuit on Saturday. Good to see a decent number of arm-powered entries, and people who haven't raced with us before.

    Hopefully it'll stay dry enough that I don't end up riding blind and come off the track at a random tangent like I did last time...

  4. I've been a little distracted with broad-spectrum DIY, but the British Human Power Club racing season kicks off at #Hillingdon on Saturday. Registrations close at midday tomorrow.

    Our events are open to anyone over the age of 12, on anything that's human-powered and meets a minimal set of safety requirements.

  5. On Friday, I had one of the slowest #recumbent rides on my usual loop this year. 2 hours. Today, the same loop took me 20 minutes less. What changed?
    1. Switched from greased chain to waxed chain
    2. Switched from 1 3/4 inch #Panaracer tires to 28mm #Schwalbe One tires
    3. Switched from a (limited edition) pink #Knog bell to a (limited edition) pink #Spurcycle bell
    Marginal improvements matter! #biketooter
