I've been fiddling around with some gear cables, old Shimano handlebar changer, a small piece of brass tubing, solder and iron . I've been trying to cobble up a gear change mechanism for my tandem . It sort of worked and I was able to take it out for a 5 mile test run .

I went past Kiel today.

Didn't see your virtual self.

Are there 2 Kiels? I didn't think you were anywhere near the Baltic.

Sounds good.

That's another one on the photography bucket list.

Right, time to put the painting away as the light's pretty well much gone.

Then I need to feed the cats, and shortly afterwards, I will be feeding me.

Didn't he do stunts on a motorcycle?

 

[Andy in Germany]

You could cycle back and get it.

A tempting thought... I'm hoping to get out on the bike tomorrow and I may explore the valley to the north east, going into the Black Forest

It won't be long before the sun sets on parliament. That's the tower (Victoria Tower?) at the other end of the Houses of Parliament.

Oh, and it's now way past beer o'clock.
