#BikeNite A1: Joining a day late from #WaterlooRegion - spent Friday at the dentist, and spent BikeNite with a new hole in my head.
I have several bike lights with AA, AAA, and C batteries (and incandescent lamps!) and one LED light with a non-replaceable battery that charges through a USB port. I also have a new dynamo and front/back lights with more incandescent bulbs. I think they were gifts from my uncle decades ago. This year I'll get them mounted on my bike!

People in Waterloo Region (Cambridge in particular) and Guelph will know John Galtβs name, at least. When I first read this post, I assumed it was a different Galt. But itβs not! Very cool article π
Kitchener Ontario Canada 8K | Breathtaking Cinematic Drone Tour 2026
This is delightfully cheeseball. Some dubious voiceover, strange choices of driving routes and ridiculous music, but there are some nice drone shots. And I don't get downtown nearly as much as I used to, so it's nice to see what's changed.
#BikeNite A7: For #WaterlooRegion Cycling Superstar I'd like to nominate Mark Connolly @uxMark who has brought us @CyclingGuide
#BikeNite A5: I don't know of any cycling shows in or near #WaterlooRegion. Last year there was a #BikeFest in June which has the potential for growing into a cycling show; I'd like to see that.
#BikeNite A2a: In #WaterlooRegion we have #RecycleCycles *and* #RedRaccoonBikeRescue. Both recycle hardware and teach DIY, but neither has the facilities to build a frame. I took a welding class when I was still in school, and I've always wanted to build a tall bike, or a long bike, or a rail-trike or rail-quad. Still on the Bucket List.
