On my mtn bike yesterday and took this photo. I actually open water swim in this mountain pond which is a couple miles from my doorstep. I usually ride to the other side for swimming

Death is easy....peaceful. Life is harder.

And gravel bike riding looks like this in my area. Taken about 6 miles from my home. Love this view all year round.

On vacation with wife's family, for a two year postponed huge family reunion, like 24 something in laws. They all determined destination on their own. Packing Saturday night, laying luggage by door.

Wife: WTF is that?
Me: My bike.
Wife: Oh heck no!
Me: But, Babe, it's Kona
Wife: What does that mean??
Me: Kona
Wife: I know, I booked the trip. So what?
Me: Kona, Slowtwitch Kona.
Wife: Wait. is that why you upgraded the rental to a mini-van?? Long pause...Fine. Go early, and don't even look tired.

hahaha that is great. Enjoy the riding.

I discovered a whole new world using drone photography. I bought a mini drone here https://www.extremefliers.com/best-mini-drones/. Just for kicks. I am presently satisfied with the results. This is the best picture I could take. I'd want to hear your views and comments.
