Strangely, seeing this chart in #HomeAssistant is a very strong motivator to keep me cycling the #BikeCommute throughout the year, whatever the weather

Slight weather change overnight left me confused. So many pretty flowering trees in Centennial Park that I had to stop and admire them despite the cold. And a bus parked in the bike lane on the way home. #BikeTooter #BikeCommute

Quick test ride today. Looks like we can get back on the #BikeCommute next week

A big welcome back to all the fair weather boys and girls, and a friendly wave to all of you pulling your dusty bike out of the shed for the first time since last July because you want to save petrol. #BikeCommute

There's this thing called #Frostpendeln which is all about showing that you can commute by bicycle through the winter. Here, this winter has been mostly Eisfrei compared with the hardcore Europeans and northern United Statesians but there has been a lot of Regnet in Strömen.🤿

Stats for last winter:

109 rides
3430.7km

Sunshine on the ride home
13⁰C and sunshine was more than enough reason to ride in shorts again. I was cycling almost effortlessly and just happend to achieve a new 3s Power record without even trying for it

hah! Rain dodged. For today. #BikeCommute
Early spring cleaning
High time for some TLC, to get rid of all that accumulated salt and dirt on all the components.
A quick spray down with Dr. Whack F100 bicycle cleaner help by a bit of water from the Aqua2go GD86 Pro pressure cleaner.
This is only to soften the caked on dirt and grime. The actual cleaning is manual work. First a thorough brushing with a dish washing brush.
The dirt can move between the stiff bristles and that way it won't scratch the surfaces. Then I rinse off all that lose muck and only then use the sponges to wipe off the remaining fine layer. A final hose down and a quick shake to remove the majority of the water. With a towel I wipe off the rest of the water and apply fresh lubrication where needed.
