🎉💻 Behold, the most necessary #innovation of the century: a digital doodle of Tolkien's imaginary playpen! 🌍✨ Now you can pointlessly click around an unlicensed internet map to revisit fictional events you’ve already read about—because who wouldn't want to measure the distance between #Rivendell and #Mordor during a coffee break? 🙄📚

Bike news, for anyone keeping up with my #Rivendell savings: I have changed my bike goals!
After much thought and (so) many YouTube videos, I'm choosing to save for a #Brompton electric G-Line, instead. Yeah, this model is actually more expensive than the Riv. But it's SO much better for my situation as a person with chronic health issues. I can ride out from home (with the assist that helps me so much already on my current e-bike) and if I need a ride back, I could easily fold it and step on a bus or into an Uber. This scenario has happened several times so it's a real concern, not a theoretical.
I can also take it into stores and appts. with me (the very real risk of a Riv getting stolen has become increasingly stressful over the last few months).
I had a Brommie years ago, and it's one of the few things I've truly regretted selling. So the normal-bike-to-Brompton adjustment won't be an issue, I've done that already.

I’ve got my Rivendell road standard up for sale at Scenic Routes in San Francisco.
Here are the parts on it: https://popagandhi.com/bikes/incredible-story-rivendell/
If you’ve ever wanted a classic Riv in a woman’s size, there’s your chance.
I’m sad to see it go, but I’m between things right now and need the $

I built the Lord of the Rings Rivendell Lego set this holiday break and envisioned this exact photoshoot during the construction of the very first bag of bricks.

Dream bike update: The saving up for the #Rivendell (in the spring) is going okay, but I’m beginning to have second thoughts about the idea, based solely in the threat of it getting stolen.
When I imagine locking it up to go into the grocery store, I wonder how long I can safely be in there. In an appointment, where I can’t dash out? Even worse. I’ve lost two beloved #bikes to theft and they were FAR less attractive (and expensive) than a Riv.
Any #BikeTooter folks have reflections on this?

So I have one bike, an electric assist bike, and as I've shared here, I'm saving up for a #Rivendell next spring (non-electric, regular bike).
Hubby has teased me this is too many bikes, and I've said, "Dude, you have no idea how bike people get, be grateful I'm only thinking of two," and it led to us guesstimating how many people have more than one bike. I said over 30%, he thinks 1-2%.
How many bikes do you have? Not in your household, but for you personally to ride/maintain?

Trying to get Greg to understand why these bike lugs (on Rivendells) are so beautiful, and he just shakes his head at me. He can't see the difference (or point) between this and standard welded lugs. My brain cracks in two.
This is probably how he feels when he shows me a really great chess set and I'm supportive yet befuddled, like, "I guess...if you need your chess pieces to be fancy...?"

Grant Peterson is now 71, and he's not retiring but he is looking at the future of Rivendell and seems to be noticing how difficult it might be to find a responsible buyer (see his August Blahg).
Which means I'm becoming aware that the bikes I've pined for since I was in my twenties might not be around forever. So I've started saving for one for next year. Dreaming of a periwinkle Platypus.

Rivendell Bicycle Works is definitely "big in Japan". 😃
Going to look forward to "This is Grant and Yoshikawa-san, head of Nitto, about to film a conversation for Youtube."

@chillybot my wife made a delightful “what #fern is it?” guide for a local #NZ walk in #Kaitoke (#Rivendell for #LoTR fans). My niece and nephew seemed to enjoy it and I learned heaps about our local #flora
-
Oh. Wow. So they put Grant Petersen's personal bicycle in the museum.
I guess he has still enough other bicycles to get around.
-
Great insight into Maxway Cycles - if you own a modern (mid range) steel bicycle frame, it's not unlikely it's manufactured there in Taiwan.
The stepthrough frames shown in the latter part of the video clearly is a Rivendell Platypus.

I Wanted Evendim, I got Esteldin
My plan was simple. I just wanted to finish up the epic quest line in the Lone Lands and then move along to Evendim, the next sort of epic quests overload zone on my list. [caption id="attachment_69586" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Lord of the Rings Online[/caption] I had been bopping around Ost Guruth long enough. I had finished up some of the deeds, done the regular series of quests, and now I just wanted to go talk to Radagast and get myself finished with Book II.

End of an era, the last time bug you with my #Lego #Rivendell set. Just a few scenes I setup after getting all of the #minifigs were built. #LotR
-
It is finally complete (minus some minifigs). Now I have to find a place to put it. 😅 Eighteen days start to finish for it. By far my largest set yet.
-
Fun fact: all of the chair arms for “The Council of Elrond” are hotdogs.
-
Easy day yesterday tiling the roof on #Rivendell. I think it may be completed today since all we have planned is #SilentSunday. No pressure. We will see how it goes!
(Edit - grrr I hate when the photos don’t pull over from the cross post!)
-
I have been slacking on my #Rivendell #Lego updates! The right side is now complete. Time for the largest section of the set.

Epic bike commute through a storm this afternoon. #rivendell carrying a #brompton and a case of beer, all under a Clever Hood.

"“Skateboarders tend to follow a trajectory,” Keating told me. “They skate, then they get into photography, then they get into bicycles, and then they get into birding.”"
