Mexico by Bicycle, our Journey from El Cuyo to Tizimin
After a fife night stay we left El Cuyo to ride to the city of Tizimin. We took two days for the journey, which made it necessary to find overnight accommodation in the village of Colonia Yucatan. Lost something along the way and decided to carry on without it. Tizimin is an interesting city. You will see where we stayed and what our first impression of this town was like.
It is cold in Edmonton’s River Valley. All the trails are ice covered and the River is slowly starting to freeze despite its strong current. But until then, a variety of icy shapes are travelling downstream at a steady pace.
Shortly after sunrise it all adds up to beautiful show of light, colours and reflections.
I’m determined to capture some of it with the DJI Mini 2, but this drone is not rated for extreme cold. How will it handle the frigid temperatures (-13 Celsius)?

It happens to all cyclists. Sooner or later you will have a flat tire. You don't get to choose when or where it hits you, but you need to be prepared. This tutorial will guide you through the steps of a bicycle tire repair. You will learn how to find the puncture, mount tires and patch your inner tube. I will show you my tire repair kit, patch the tire and pump it up. In this particular case I'm repairing a home made studded winter tire.

Overhauling a bicycle often includes a complete paint job.This was certainly necessary for my old winter bike. In this video you can see how I prepped the frame and fork for the final coat of paint. Due to lack of a big and well ventilated work shop, I work outside, weather permitting. My neighbours don't seem to mind. The neighbours in the video are fictional characters however.
