    bicycle light
  • Bicycle lighting serves to increase the visibility of the bicycle rider to others in dark conditions, i.e. to increase the rider's conspicuity and to enhance the ability of the rider to see, illuminating the way forward.





    generators
  • A dynamo or similar machine for converting mechanical energy into electricity

  • An apparatus for producing gas, steam, or another product

  • A thing that generates something, in particular

  • (generator) someone who originates or causes or initiates something; "he was the generator of several complaints"

  • (generator) an apparatus that produces a vapor or gas

  • (generator) engine that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy by electromagnetic induction











Bike light generator housing 1




Bike light generator housing 1





The housing for the stepper motor that's used as a generator for my LED bike light. It's the cover for a baby bottle (being a grandma has it's many rewards :)

You can also see the mounting bracket that holds the generator next to the wheel. It's made from a piece I scavenged from an old VCR ( I think) It has a pivot that lets the generator move up and down.

The ultimate result was that I replaced the Shimano halogen headlight with a Spaninga LED model. (I used a bracket from a battery light to mount it up high.) Now both lights have the standlight feature, making me feel safer at traffic stops.

Gateway to Utah




Gateway to Utah





There are two main license plate designs in the great state of Utah. One design has a drawing of a skier going down the slopes that states, "Ski Utah."

The other license plate has a semi-photo-realistic drawing of this arch, from Arches National Park labeled as the Centennial plate. This arch is considered a great landmark of Utah, and is called Delicate Arch.

Here, I've combine two photos to make a panorama, and straightened the photo quite a bit. When I first saw this arch in real life, I was surprised to see it in its natural slant, as all of the depictions of it had be straightened like I have here!

Click into the photo to see what it really looks like, and to get a perspective of the size!

Emma & Bike at Bridlington





Stopping for sandwiches in Bridlington. We were on the return leg of our tour from Bournemouth to Hartlepool, and back again down the east coast and over the Humber Bridge. Many miles in the space of two weeks. Pity Emma doesn't have her bike licence. First proper tour with full luggage on my newer Yamaha XJ600 Diversion. Bought from the original owner near Cardiff in South Wales for less than ?1000 (luggage added from my previous XJ600). I upgraded it with a 4-into-1 Remus exhaust. Nicer sound than the original Yamaha twin cans.

Licence to Thrill: A Cultural History of the James Bond Films (Cinema and Society)






When James Chapman's rip-roaring journey through the annals of celluloid Bond first appeared in 2000, the London Evening Standard said, "Chapman demonstrates that there is more to the 007 franchise than just girls, guns and globe trotting." Stephen O'Brien, writing in SFX magazine called the book "Thoughtful, intelligent, ludicrous and a bit snobby. Bit like Bond, really."
Licence to Thrill went on to establish itself as one of the best books on the subject, and one that has made readers think in new ways about 007. It follows James Bond from the 1962 Dr No, through all the subsequent films of the franchise--including Casino Royale--exploring them within the culture and politics of the times, as well as within film culture itself.
For this new edition, Chapman has now brought the story right up to the present, with an updated Introduction, a new first chapter and, most importantly, full coverage of Pierce Brosnan in The World is Not Enough and Die Another Day, as well as a brand new chapter on Casino Royale and Daniel Craig's new-look Bond.

________________________________
Formerly a Danish vessel, the Anita Dan, built in 1956 by Grogerwerft for the Lauritzen Lines, she was the first Royal Navy vessel named Endurance. Acquired by the Royal Navy in 1967, she was converted by Harland & Wolff and renamed.
The vessel maintained a British presence in Antarctica and the Falkland Islands during the summer months. She also supported the British Antarctic Survey. Due to her bright red hull she was nicknamed The Red Plum. The Royal Navy intended to decommission the vessel in 1982, following the defence review of John Nott, but the Falklands War intervened
Toward the end of her life she acquired the nickname HMS Encumbrance due to reliability problems.
In 1989 she struck an iceberg and although she was repaired, a survey in 1991 declared that the hull was not sound enough for a return to Antarctica and she was finally decommissioned. She was replaced by the MV Polar Circle, later renamed HMS Endurance.

Endurance: Shackleton's Incredible Voyage






'Sir Ernest Shackleton and his crew make today's hightech adventurers look like dilettantes. Their interminable voyage across frozen land and open sea is one of the most harrowing survival stories of all time.' Sebastian Junger, author of the bestselling The Perfect Storm. In 1914 Sir Ernest Shackleton and a crew of 27 men set sail for the South Atlantic on board the Endurance. The object of the expedition was to cross the Antarctic overland. In October 1915, still half a continent away from their intended base, the ship was trapped, then crushed in ice. For seventeen months Shackleton and his men, drifting on ice packs and then on the stormiest seas on the globe, were castaways in this most savage region of the world. Frank Hurley, the photographer of the expedition, documented their struggles, miraculously saving his negatives and photographs from destruction at each stage of their journey. His photographs illustrate the dramatic, terrible beauty of the lands with which they were contending. They also provide an unsurpassable insight into the extraordinary spirit of Shackleton and his crew, and their extraordinary indefatigability and lasting civility towards one another in the most adverse conditions. Lansing's gripping narrative, based on firsthand accounts of crew members and interviews with survivors, vividly describes how the men lived together in camps on the ice until they reached land, how they were attacked by sea leopards, ate sea lion and polar bear, developed frostbite (an operation to amputate the foot of one member of the crew was carried out on the ice), and finally embarked on a 850-mile voyage in a 22-foot open lifeboat to find help.

How Bike Brakes Work





how bike brakes work






    bike brakes
  • Bicycle brake systems are used to slow down or stop a bicycle. There have been various types of brakes used throughout history, and several are still in use today. The three main types are: rim brakes, disc brakes, and drum brakes.





    work
  • A place or premises for industrial activity, typically manufacturing

  • Such activity as a means of earning income; employment

  • a product produced or accomplished through the effort or activity or agency of a person or thing; "it is not regarded as one of his more memorable works"; "the symphony was hailed as an ingenious work"; "he was indebted to the pioneering work of John Dewey"; "the work of an active imagination";

  • Activity involving mental or physical effort done in order to achieve a purpose or result

  • activity directed toward making or doing something; "she checked several points needing further work"

  • exert oneself by doing mental or physical work for a purpose or out of necessity; "I will work hard to improve my grades"; "she worked hard for better living conditions for the poor"






















1985 Fuji Opus III: the bike I bussed a hell of a lot of tables in order to buy in March of '86 — and which was worth every penny at that. Superbe Pro gruppo! (I remember purchasing it for something like $800 at Mill Race Cyclery in Elgin, Illinois.)

This catalog photo was kindly sent to me by Bill Reavis nearly 21 years later. I'd forgotten how pink the bike was — even the anodizing on the brakes. Despite the questionable color scheme, this is sweetest ride I'd owned up to that time (and perhaps will ever own, for that matter). Just look at those lines — gorgeous! If I had that bike now I'd probably swap out those aero rims for something a bit more "classic", but it would still turn heads...

So why don't I have this bike today? Ah, dear reader, the answer to that question is a sorrowful tale it pains me to relate... But seriously, I made the poor decision to bring this bike along on the cross-country trip Patti and I made in the spring of 1989. I don't know... maybe I had visions of heading out on rides in every state we passed through? Sounds nice, but things didn't work out that way. And since I wasn't riding often it won't come as a surprise that I tended to forget about the extra 4 feet of bike mounted over the car.

The inevitable happened in Tempe, AZ as we were heading out again after a brief stay with Geoff Franks. I swung under a carport to turn around and caught the the bike's seat on the metal lip of the roof. Surprisingly, the bike didn't rip free of the racks (or open up the Celica like a tin can); the frame had absorbed most of the impact, buckling the down tube and pulling the forks every so slightly towards it. The damage didn't look all that bad — and the bike was still ridable — but the front wheel nearly touched the bike frame now and I feared deep inside she was ruined beyond all repair.

Later that summer (after we'd returned to Illinois) I decided to paint the frame in some crazy scheme of black-and-white stripes that never quite matched what I'd had in mind. Not long after that I rode over to Sean's house in Wheaton. Sean asked if he could take the bike out for a spin, and as Cathy and I watched him get the feel of it out on the street, Sean leaned forward just enough to flex the fork and cause the front tire to seize against the frame. The bike stopped on a dime and Sean went right over the bars and onto the pavement. Luckily he wasn't going that fast, but it still had to hurt. At that point I realized that the bike's riding days were over. The sad part is that it probably could have been repaired (let's hear it for steel!), but we didn't know that back then.

The Fuji hasn't disappeared entirely, however. Todd still has many of the components in his collection, keeping them in the family :-)











Santa Monica Door Lane / Bike Lane




Santa Monica Door Lane / Bike Lane





An updated depiction of how I view the typical bike lane design in Santa Monica. Despite all safety literature on cycling best practices that suggests riding into the path of potentially opening car doors is extremely hazardous, this is exactly what most cycling infrastructure encourages.

Santa Monica last updated it's bicycle master plan in 1995. The time is long over do to rethink how we design for bike traffic, that is undeniably growing in recent years.

With the advent of sharrows, it seems apparent to me that where insufficient road width is available for proper bike lanes, sharrow markings should instead be used to encourage safe riding position along bike routes. Some places where width is unavailable to design the bike lane properly, that is only the case because of other accommodations like center turn lanes that often go mostly unused for much of their length.

Heavily compromised bike lanes that are nothing more than left over road space for swinging car doors can be more dangerous than no bike lanes at all while providing feeling of safety. I think much better progress could be made both in safety and growing cycling trips, by limiting where we put fully separated bike lanes, but doing them correctly, and placing sharrows elsewhere, rather than adding tons of mileage of mostly crap bike lanes.

In the past 3 weeks I have rerouted all my trips and work commuting to avoid Santa Monica bike lanes, and instead control the center of the rightmost lane on 2 lane each way roads like Colorado Ave. Sometimes when a destination is on a bike lane route, I will ride a street with a bike lane, but only for a block, and completely outside of the door lane, I mean bike lane. I have noticed a slight increase in being honked at since I made these changes, but a marked decrease in near misses and instances of having to brake or evade to avoid a collision.

The slight increase in being honked at stems from some people not understanding cyclists rights, but at least I know someone who honks can see me. They inevitably go around just fine, it is easy enough on a road with 2 lanes in each direction, and half the time in heavy traffic they will make progress no faster since they will get stuck behind a line of cars at the light. It's drivers who don't see you that hit you, and by riding confidently and outside of the door zone, you vastly increase your visibility and put some safe distance between you and common hazardous situations like opening car doors and vehicles turning out of driveways.

Xtracycle with fat front 14




Xtracycle with fat front 14





Maiden voyage on the Xtracycle with an Endomorph on the front. I have ridden in the snow at least a hundred times with Schwalbe Marathon Winter Tires front and rear. It has never felt this stable on fresh snow.

With just me it was not that big of a deal to have the front slip around a little but with the girls on the back it was always nerve racking in fresh loose snow. Tonight with them on the back and the fresh snow loosely packed down to about 1 to 2 inches the bike was very stable going straight. Making turns I still need to slow way down or the front wants to slide still because of so much weight in the back with two girls.

I plan on getting the Larry tire when the are available again. I think that will help even more.

Looking for exercise and failing to find the $15K for a BMW motorbike I bought this beastie. I am amazed that Walmart can sell this (Shimano 21 speed derailleurs, disk brakes, dual suspension, aluminium frame, alloy wheels) for $150. They have adult bikes from $45 - all Chinese of course.

I know my friends, you have seen this place. But after the hot weather caused by the Santa Ana desert wind for few days, we get this strange sky. The colors are always amazing. It happens every time after those winds. So I decided to post this picture!
For the last few days I have been working with a GPS to geotag my pictures. My Garmin finally "talks" to my pictures. I am really excited about that. It's also why I walked around the same places to try it out.
