Even though the hotel I reviewed did well, I did point out the racks were inadequate & it would be to their advantage to improve them before next year's #Spezi2026

Spezi 2026-Radical Designs has New Fabrics/Colors & More

I didn't spend a looong time looking at this booth, but the bags looked good to me and were definitely of interest to me given that Ortlieb no longer makes its recumbent line.

@rand @ascentale @bikenite Yeah, my experience at #Spezi2026 in Freiburg was surprising that way. When I arrived in Freiburg late at night, I had to switch from train to tram. I wanted to pay and couldn't figure out how. No one offered to help me. I was expecting the stereotypical German rules-bound enforcement, but no one was enforcing the ticket rule.

The whole time I was there, I saw no ticket-checkers.I think the attitude probably *is* that it's better that ppl be on pubtrans than drive.

@ascentale @bikenite A8. I couldn't upload that much from #Spezi2026 when I was still on the move. So now I get to choose one to post in answer to the weekly photo cue.

Spezi is the best cycle show I've been to, besting even the Recumbent Cycle Con I attended 10 or so years ago. Great opportunities for disabled cyclists, but also plenty of abled cyclists enjoying the spectrum of what's available in human-powered and e-assist vehicles.
