Your bike in front of something different...

[EltonFrog]

It's a really nice winter/commuting bike... I like the classic shape, and the quality of the (aluminium) joints is lovely. Had it over 13 years now, just done a complete drive chain replacement.

Did you buy it new?

Did you buy it new?

Yup. It was my first proper modern bike, having got by on some rickety second hand ones since uni days. It was my first one with modern not-downtube shifters, and it took me a while to work out how to change gears.

Nice, it was my first modern bike too also bought new, I really wish I had kept it.

Bamboo plants, not something you see everyday in this part of the world.

Another cyclist & I puzzled over this chain this arvo - figured it must be something like a wheel clamp dumped by some ne'er do well

A fish that eats rubbish, you don't see this at home. Portugal and Spain have a flair for the unusual.

Made up a Gravel route in Garmin connect, pretty good start. Sent me through the Budda Eden via the back door . Not a soul to spoil the view or is it closed Monday as usual for many Portuguese and Spanish tourist sites.

And then onto this at the top end.
