[Leica] IMGs: Friday: frogs, flowers, bread baking and bike riding

[Douglas Barry]

George, nice images, but, going on the message, you appear to be a 
Motobecane man from birth. The only Motobecane I used was one supplied by a 
sponsor when my then sylph-like self was doing a big charity triathlon way 
back in the early '80s. Compared to the Mercian Superlight I had just 
bought, it was like riding a garden gate. I wanted to use my own bike, but 
was told in no uncertain terms "Use the gate, or you get the gate!" so 
that's why I rode a Motobecane from Galway to Dublin and then ran the Dublin 
City Marathon with legs like jelly. In my opinion, that gate affected my 
gait...

That said, I like the geometry (of your bike) on display here. It looks 
elegant and purposeful, and the rake of the forks looks good, lest plate 
tectonics moves a stray alp into Wisconsin, but the saddle looks plumper 
than a true peletoneur would desire.
Seriously, it's good to hear you're throwing your leg over in your maturity 
:-)

Douglas
PS flowers are good too!
