Tuesday, August 10, 2021 -- Manhattan Beach Pier -- Overcast day...

It's on the warm side (low 80s/high 70s) but the clouds make it much better...




While resting at the pier, noticed that the rear derailleur is rotated way back.
The chain is too long I think.


The chain is not even on the smallest gear on the cassette.
If I were to shift down to the smallest gear, the chain way touch the derailleur's idler cage...

Took out four links from the chain.
Should be good now.



I sprint at the end of the ride up to the rust pedestrian bridge.
Today I got up to 26.81 MPH.
Usually I'm around 25 MPH.
Wonder if I'll ever hit 30...  That's a tall order...

Saturday, August 14, 2021 -- Glendale Toy Show -- Part 1












I parked a block away from the Glendale Civic Auditorium.
There's a "channel" next to the auditorium.


Very cool old "railing" on the bridge over the channel...


The neighborhood next to the auditorium looks very nice.
Big old houses, big lots, mature greenery, winding hilly streets & seems quiet  (only downside is that it's very hot compared to near the ocean).


 

Tuesday, August 10, 2021 -- Manhattan Beach Pier -- School must have started for some. A little bit less busy at the beach...
