Your bike in front of some water - pictures

[Andy in Germany]

This is my upright 26" touring bicycle at a detention basin which is unnamed. A large population of fish and waterfowl, and a permanent body of water, fed by drainage from parking lots. There are many of these in town, because local ordinance demands that for every parking lot there must be detention basins to hold the rain coming off the parking lot . I have never seen this pond dry, knock wood.

An extremely sensible policy, although I'm amazed that the water from parking lots can support much wildlife.

Yes, for a town some miles from anything but creeks, all these detention basins give it all a somewhat aquatic feel.

Water in the sea, and water in the sky today, at Budleigh, on a well-timed circuit, avoiding the many showers...
