Two small wheels, one compact fold, and the road ahead. Camouflage, of a Sort. Camouflage, of a Sort. May 31st, 2015. Can you spot the Brompton? It’s Argyll, green amongst the greens (and sliver amongst the silver). Note: Basil and I are out-of-town again. (No more icy roads; making up for lost time! Reponses to comments and email will be slow or non-existent (depending on conditions) until early next week. June 3rd, 2015 at 09:28 #1. And you can hardly see Dr. D. next to Argyll. Have a Good One!

Short Trips & Errands | The Brompton Diaries
http://www.thebromptondiaries.com/category/short-trips
Two small wheels, one compact fold, and the road ahead. Archive for the ‘Short Trips and Errands’ Category. May 17th, 2015. Basil and I took a spin around the alleys of a suburban town, as we are wont to do, and here’s what we found this time. On these streets, there aren’t any driveways at the front of the homes, or running beside them. Parking and housing vehicles is usually done at the extreme back of each lot, where these buildings often still stand. The windvane is designed after an old schooner; I ...

Handlebar Bag a la Frite | The Brompton Diaries
http://www.thebromptondiaries.com/2015/05/handlebar-bag-a-la-frite
Two small wheels, one compact fold, and the road ahead. Handlebar Bag a la Frite. Handlebar Bag a la Frite. May 22nd, 2015. I’ve seen Rickshaw Bagworks’s. Sweet little Pipsqueak handlebar bag. At bike expos, and on their website, but features that others love weren’t going to work for me (or for Basil, my Brompton bicycle). So I made my own version. (This is the curse of getting used to making things oneself: Really, it’s easier to order online! Here it is, partially assembled. That’s the card ...The Pip...

Reunited | The Brompton Diaries
http://www.thebromptondiaries.com/2015/05/reunited
Two small wheels, one compact fold, and the road ahead. May 21st, 2015. And it feels so good! Basil and Argyll, together again. Argyll has been sidelined for months, waiting for the moment when Dr. Diarist got the OK to ride again. This past weekend, his patience was rewarded. Dr Diarist was pretty happy to get his buddy back, too. (Actually, he was ecstatic, but this was a formal portrait, so they’re both standing tall and looking serious.). May 22nd, 2015 at 12:10 #1. May 26th, 2015 at 10:56 #2. My Ora...

Two small wheels, one compact fold, and the road ahead. In Transit, Train Style. In Transit, Train Style. May 29th, 2015. Basil and I hadn’t traveled together by train in months before we went up for the 5 Boro. Winter was hard on everything, and did no favors to this rail station. Basil looks spritely, though, doesn’t he? I love trains, and the Amtrak run to New York City is just about the most blissful way to travel.* Basil and luggage tucked neatly into a corner, as ever. It’s not always smooth ...

Before Basil | The Brompton Diaries
http://www.thebromptondiaries.com/before-basil
Two small wheels, one compact fold, and the road ahead. August 20th, 2014. I ride a lot of miles on my Brompton bicycle, frequently for more than twenty miles/32.1 km at a clip. People, especially those who aren’t familiar with folding bikes, are always asking me if I’ve been cycling forever: It’s very hard for them to imagine that I’d be riding so much on such a small bike unless I was hard core. I rode another bicycle, very briefly, in sixth grade, but that was it for early biking experiences. Arianna ...
