Right after taking those pictures I found this guy, and then when letting him go I found this little guy.

Garter snake?

Yup both garters.
We’ve also got a 3 foot milk snake who lives in a stone wall that borders our garden, and freaking huge rat snake who hangs out by our compost heap.

My wife, being from Waterford is absolutely terrified of snakes. Like high pitched screams and hyperventilating whenever she finds one outside.

I'd like to move there tbh.

We’ve got 10 acres, clearing a spot for a yurt, and next spring going to build a shed/cottage. You welcome to crash as long as I can put you to work.

Nice coat of Turtle Wax.

Got lost, found some cool trails (had to hike-a-bike for a bit to get to them), had a beer. Bike is doing great, will be doing even better tomorrow.

New tyres and cranks for my birthday!
42s Pumpkin Ridge and shorter TA Carmina. I was looking for 7800 in 170, but nothing in decent shape was showing up. I also replaced the VO cable hangers with some Paul Moon Units.

Pedal strike is mostly gone, had some random strikes hopping onto a wooden bridge.

Then went out for a birthday ride and this happened.

I took the turn on a descent a little too wide and the path literally crumbled away underneath me.

Rest of the ride was a success, beers were had, and I somehow survived to turn 41...

New England has a surprisingly wonderful local beer selection, come over for a visit and we’ll do a brewery/distillery tour.

PS I ran over a snake today and I feel horrible.

Are you wearing a blue bib to match your frame?

My bibs are grey?

Oh, the mask? Yeah they’re still being mandated in public here. I have a bunch of tye-dye ones.

nah I like it now (on an MTB)

Imagine how the snake felt! badum hisssss

Where abouts are you? I almost killed myself on IPAs and whisky on Tuesday but I'm sure I'll be up for the challenge again once my "I'm never drinking again" warning light goes off again.

Oh, Somerville, MA. I get it now.

Aaah, that's what it is! That makes a lot more sense. Great bike by the way.

Ha, yeah not Somerville at Oxford! Is there another Somerville in the UK?

Come visit, we should have a yurt on the property next fall!
