Oregon legalized the “Idaho stop” in 2020, meaning cyclists can slow and roll through the stop if there aren’t others at the intersection with the right-of-way. Recommend.
10 months agoI grew up on a lake in Minnesota and I remember riding my bike on the ice when it had no snow and also when it did have snow. It was super fun. But, yeah, with the winter you have been having this year, forget it until it gets much colder.
10 months agoSorry to hear about your Mother in Law Greg. Please give my sympathies to her and hoping your Dad settles in at his new place.
10 months agoThe sign seems to say "slo", which is more of a suggestion re riding speed rather than a directive to stop riding altogether.
10 months agoWe have them at our place on southern Vancouver Island. They are beautiful, true, but they also dive down and like to grab a quick snack from our chicken flock. Not fair, those chickens are OURS.
10 months agoI'd have tested it and if over 4 inches, give it a go! Yeah, I do slide now and then, but being ready on glassy surfaces (no brakes, no fast turns, etc.) with my feet ready to steady, it is fun!
10 months agoCurrently upper 40s and drizzly all day, here in Dayton, OH, soon to start dropping with a promise of near zero by the end of the week... but little fluffy precipitation. I am not a fan. But, ride, I shall, barring some catastrophic interference.
10 months agoF 80 is, indeed a very rare bird!
10 months agoProbably, but I didn't ride out there to find out.
10 months agoThin ice?
10 months agoThank you. I think your compliment was far more excellent than my crow picture.
10 months agoI had to because it's DEFINITELY in the top three pictures of crows I've ever seen in my entire life on this page. It's a well-deserved heart.
10 months agoThank you, Kathleen. I agree it is a blessing and a comfort. The Feeshko and I were pretty lucky that both sets of parents all lived into their 80's. Too bad her folks lived 2,000 miles away from mine. She's with her family in Spokane now, and I'm heading back to Iowa to care for my dad for a few days and try to find a nursing home for him. My mom died 6 years ago and her dad died three years ago, so my dad is the last one left. Who knows, maybe he'll make it into his 90's.
10 months agoWe are so sorry to hear about your mother in law. While it is a blessing (and for me anyway, a comfort) when your parents live to be a grand old age, it is never easy when that final day arrives. We are hoping your Dad will rally and there will be more great memories made.

That's a good one alright.
