Default Some pics from yesterdays ride...

Just got the time to download my pictures from yesterdays ride... Did about an 80 mile loop of some of my favorite trails and dirt roads. I left about sunrise. I love those early morning rides.







Open range cows...


The office...




A goat herd...

Nicely done, how do those mirrors work for seeing cars etc? Who makes them?

Regards

Nice pics, always great to see other places. Can you actually see out of those mirrors? I have the folding mirrors, and they are a lot taller, and are way wider and I still have to squeeze my shoulders to see sometimes.

Thanks for the kind comments guys.

The mirrors are Dual Star brand.

The mirrors work pretty good if your're not too wide around the waist. You look under your arm with these instead of over your shoulder. The lefthand side works just fine, the angle on the righthand side is not where I'd like it due to the mirror hitting the brake resv.

I try to stay off busy roads and out of traffic too. And I always give the full head turnaround to check before I change lanes.

I'm really enjoying my new pocket size camera. My old one was way too big to carry around on the bike for snapshots.

Well I'm a little larger in the waist, so I guess those won't work for me
