Rain+sun=bow

MerryXmas every body! I just got super inspired!
Maryland weather is so cool, you gotta take the good with the bad and this is pretty cool, 12/25, warmer than usual, raining, winter grey, then the sun comes out,........... a little slice of heaven!

 

 

Bianchi does it again!

I like the look of this all arounder, except for the shifter, it's a bit clunky.
I have been quit curious about these internally geared hubs.It leaves the bike looking a lot cleaner,and less maintenance too.
But can they hold up to the strain of touring heavy loads or the mind bending off road climb?

Lower Loch Raven yesterday,, 

 

Sam's grave...It's the flash 2/3rd's down on the left,the green flash in the corner,.......is it Sam?

 

 

Saterday morning motoring south to the Ocean City Inlet, 5am, the city lights are the blurry ones on the horizon,cold water and sand bars between the boat and the lights, over them is the first bits of life giving rays for the day,the sun through the clouds.Once it came up it was still frigin freez'n,you always seem to stay warm when your catching fish, the bigger the fish the warmer you stay,I froze my ass off.
