A sign of Spring
That was quick, just a day or two since the snow melted. Yellow crocus at Bergdalen this afternoon. Spotted them when I came home after a first ride with the new bike.
I have been out twice with the new steel horse. It is tough not to have any gears, and I can feel a few new muscles in my legs that haven't been in use much before! I will take a few photos of the bike, but I need to pimp it a bit first, it lacks a kickstand and fenders.
The crocus looks lovely. We won't see that here for awhile.
ReplyDeleteIn February, that far north? Amazing.
