FloKurze Runde mit dem ZOX 28 vor der großen Hitze. Gleich als nüchtern Fahrt. Gemütlich durch den #aischgrund

David HembrowUnfortunately, the #climateclassic cycle ride for today, which goes along the future Dutch sea front at 1 m altitude, was cancelled and/or shortened (depending on your start location). Why ? Because of the climate change that the ride tries to draw attention to !
The temperature and humidity were considered too high.
But we could still collect shirts at the start in Groningen so we were sort of committed to a minimum 60 km ride there and back, and we decided to follow the route all the way back to the furthest point from Groningen, before then riding to our respective homes.
Each person's total distance was different. For me it worked out as only 120 km instead of the expected 160 km total. It was indeed warm today and we rode at a relatively modest pace as a result. But very pleasant it was, with excellent company including @TheoZw and @twilwel
And there's some good news. Because it was cancelled for us this year, we have already paid the entrance fee for next year:

Letztes Wochenende ein schönes Treffen mit ca. 15 #velomobil en, #recumbenttrike und anderen Rädern. Sehr entspannte und unterhaltsame Runde mit lieben Menschen.
Die Teilnehmer kamen aus ganz #franken angereist.
Megan Lynch (she/her)@DurableAce @wesley @bikenite The chainless systems have been talked up a lot the last two Spezis. I didn't get a chance to try one out, though.
If it does regen, that's great. I think it's huge that it can do reverse. #BikeNite #Recumbent
It is blowing and raining HARD out there and so far the cover on my trike is holding on. I didn't tie it as well as I could, but I did tie it. And the elasticized ends help. I sure hope it doesn't blow away.
The seats of recumbents are generally an ergonomic advantage, but they do catch a lot more rain and are harder to cover fully in a rainstorm. #BikeTooter #Recumbent
@ascentale @bikenite A8. This week was the week I finally got to ride the replacement recumbent. As my left knee is in a lot of pain and very tetchy, it couldn't have come soon enough. Life is much better with a ride.
The challenge is finding infrastructure that isn't ableist and/or car-centric. When places refuse to hold drivers accountable, we get infrastructure that is meant to keep drivers out, but also keeps disabled cyclists out. So we have to educate about these issues, and advocate for holding drivers accountable first & then when relying on barriers, make the barriers as accessible to all cyclists as possible.
But I'm very very happy to be riding again! #BikeNight #Recumbent #Albania
@ascentale @TicklishHoneyBee @bikenite A4. Finally replaced my recumbent (thanks to those who've helped...I'm far from paying down the debt from this so I'm still crowdfunding). A trike is new for me so while I've got recumbent experience, I'm having to learn how to adapt to the new configuration.
I bought a water bottle holder, but it's made for upright bike tube diameters. I may have to attach it to my seat back, but the mesh seat design I have doesn't allow for as much of that as the Haluzak Horizon did. I already put a lock holder there.
I have an after-market adapter for things, but it's at my feet so I can't put stuff there I need to access while riding. Currently, I'd like to find a phone/GoPro holder so I could more easily vlog my rides.
I *wish* I had an AirZound, which is my favorite for warning drivers. If I did, I'd have to modify the hose because it's designed for uprights with the reservoir meant for the bottle holder.

Some of you are probably following me not because of my boosts of posts, focused on my #recumbent #solarbike . Today I am about to ride about ~100 km to open air music festival to meet with my friends. Tomorrow, the same 100 km back.
I am never sure of this counts as #biketouring or #motorcycle ride, but I like it and I would like to see more interest in this kind of vehicles.
