Well, that's just good taste on Wike's part! Those are OEM.

Paths like these are what I live for. Here's a boardwalk from a chill little loop outside of Boston.

 

My local shop participated in the Swift Summer Solstice Campout and I opted to tag along. We were joined by truemarmalade.com, who took a lot of great photos of the trip, including this shot of me as I parted ways with the main group.

A small, stout terracotta pot containing a fern in the rear and a few moss varieties in the midground of the pot.  In the foregground there is a raccoon figurine holding a d20.  The pot is in a tiled alcove.

I just put together this pot with a fern and some mosses as an experiment for my shower. There's a window, but it never gets super bright in there, so I'll be interested to see how it holds up.

Novice bike mechanic here, but a lifelong bike commuter/green collar grunt. I've worked in two bike shops so far, the first being a high-end recreation based shop with an uber-wealthy clientele that bought top-of-the-line carbon machines that they would ride into the fucking ground within a season or two, and the second caters to commuters, lifestylers, and where there is an outdoorsy lean, more x-bike or Crust style stuff. Sure, nothing under capitalism is free from sin, but it still seems to me if you want to go after cycling for being unsustainable, you need to go after the tastes of the wealthy that treat them like toys to shred as opposed to most transport and utility cyclists who, for the most part, are trying to squeeze every mile they can out of their components.

 

This is my Hard Rock I've been using to commute, run errands, and every once in a while ride some rough stuff with. I'm on the market for another bike as this one is rather small for me, but I'm sure not looking forward to selling it.
