I’m trying to sell a bicycle my daughter grew out of. It is Liv by Giant and is in very good condition.
Anyway, for shipping companies to accept it for delivery, I need to remove pedals, among other minor disassemblies. Guess what? I have a huge toolbox with various tools and wrenches, but no 15mm one for pedals 🤦‍♂️

"Old Stevens Pass Highway"


I tried the old highway first, but the gravel was such that I would've had a horrible time climbing on it for hours.

Perhaps you already know the #Netherlands is as flat as a #pancake. Yet this photo was not taken in #austria or #switzerland or even #Iceland. What you see in this photo is actually a waste mountain. A the moment I took this shot, they still used it, but allready made preparations to make it a recreational place. It already hosted several cycling races, like the Dutch championship in 2020 and 2022, the European championship cycling in 2023, the Tour of Holland in 2025, several MTB-races and national sprintraces, and many more to come.
It was bloody cold back then, with low temperatures and hard wind. I try to make the picture with that feeling. The scenery works well with it.

Winter Tour - Day 2: Pondres -> Montpellier (45 km).
Again mostly on superb #cyclepath. Arrival in a big city such as Montpellier always a choc, even if there are many cyclepath as well. On the way the village of Sommières was charming (see picture).

Now I could start my work on the #bicycle drivetrain - all the parts have arrived, BUT…

I didn’t receive the #Shimano #DirectMount tool to deal with the chainring.

I remember I did mount it without the tool and it somehow holds, but I don’t want to risk frustration of not being able to remove the lock ring..

I’m going to patiently wait like a reasonable human being…🤡

Hopefully, tomorrow I will take on -9°C with new chainring, cassette and chain. A quiet drivetrain to enjoy #cycling again!🫣

Beautiful foggy ride to work! Took the long way by doing some laps and hills in Druid Hill Park. Took a photo through my sunglasses!

#GoodMorning #Gravel! Still cold, but what can you do… Fortunately, no wind again and dry on the top of that.

Hopefully, the last dance of the old, worn as hell drivetrain… The grinding noises are killing me…🤡
