Hope I didn't wake you Bill.

A great pic- the perspective and the bike placed between the shadows tricks the eye into thinking it's in a giant cage.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Here's one I prepared earlier, from early 2010 I think.


The water was a bit higher then.

The "scaffold" are the towers for HV transmission wires.

Alas, another one without a bike.  I was on the bike, but had to walk a short distance to get the shot.
