Hiking, camping, canoeing – if it’s an outdoor adventure, it should be under this heading
Skunk / Fox encounter
Bike trips and selected walks
Active on iNaturalist
In the past month, I have gone from 371 Common Milkweed observations on iNaturalist (17th in the world) to 678 observations (9th).
Previously, I had not tried the “Identify” feature, but now I am up to 3,602 identifications.

All my Toronto walks an bike rides since 2020
Observing Milkweed
Far and slow
I took my Dutch bike in for servicing today (to get my brake pads replaced) and calculated some usage statistics.
Indeed, on the ride from home to the bike store, I crossed 7,000 km of total distance on the bike.
One interesting element of that is how it has nearly all been done at a modest pace. 90% of all my travel is at less than 19.3 km/h and 50% was under 12.2 km/h.
It’s a hauler, not a racer, and I am often occupied with tasks more complex than just getting from Point A to Point B.
