Carrying a dessert to a dinner party just isn’t the same when you can’t keep an eye on it, particularly if it’s fragile and still hot from the oven.
(Yes Cycler, it’s a tarte tatin, which I should not have made in a springform pan, but it tasted delicious anyway)

Spotted sometimes on Newbury Street, this bike always makes my husband stop for a second look. Those green and yellow rims are even the Indy Fab colors.
One thing that’s made clear by this rusting steel washer and nut next to a pristine seat stay – a titanium frame makes some sense for an all-season bike like this one. Expensive for all of us who don’t work at IndyFab, but certainly practical in Boston!
This submission from my dear friend E reminds me a bit of Karl Lagerfeld’s safety campaign from 2008, though this lady is in Iceland, not France.
Isn’t she fun? I love the reflective sash accent on her high-visibility top, but the bustier treatment and halter neckline are just perfect. Yes it’s overtly safety gear but it’s so much fun that I have to love it.
Just looking at this bike it’s clear that a lot of time and love went into its creation.
This photo doesn’t capture it so well, but those Sun rims have “facets”, much like the Honjo Le Paon fenders. The different faces of the rim catch the light differently.
I’m pretty sure this bike belongs to a taller gentleman.
I love the powder grey cable housing he chose with his powder blue bike. It reminds me of a bike I saw way back on Newbury Street, in more of a ladies’ size. I called it “Cloud Bike” I wonder if we could find a way to introduce those two?
Monday afternoon, missing the weekend, this video made me smile:
It even has a Brompton in the very beginning!
In Siena there is an ancient horse race called the Palio. It’s clear from talking to people, reading books on the region, and just visiting and seeing the art of the place that the Palio is a big deal. This photo, showing just one bareback rider in ancient costume, with the town square packed with spectators, conveys a bit of the excitement.
So we were happy and amused to see that there is a much newer Bicycle Palio, and I’m just sorry we didn’t get to see it happen. I’ve looked extensively but can only find photos of the horse race version (which of course looks fun too). Someday!
How much fun is this modern-looking pedicab! Notice the passenger is sitting back and taking photos as they cruise past the Duomo.
