15 000 kilometers
I checked the odometer on the eBike. My Gazelle Ultimate C8. It now stands at 15 000 kilometers. Not too bad. I took my first ride on it in early June 2021. Only a couple of incidents to report. On the warmest day of the year last Summer, the chain fell off, so I had to grab a taxi home. Thieves walked away with my bicycle bag once when I had parked the bike at Stockholm City Hall. So I bought a new identical bag, seen here. Another group of thieves emptied that bag while I was using a restroom here at the cemetery, also last Summer. So I have had to buy a new wind jacket and some other stuff as well because of the thefts. I have used two new companies to repair the bike. Both came over and picked up the bike and returned it fixed within 24 hours. And then of course I lost my bike key a while back and had to get another taxi ride home. But I got two spare keys in the mail earlier in the week, and one of them is now in my wallet. Oh, and I hurt my back a few days ago when I had to stop and jump off the bike. And no flat tires. Anyway, this is a photo from the cemetery that I visit a few times every week. Skogskyrkogården. I actually started my photo project here after buying the eBike.

You and your bike have fallen on bad times. I feel sorry for you
I had some trouble putting my socks on because of the back problem! But no problem on the bike. I have tried a longer stretching routine over the last week.
That's sad about the thieves taking your items. You can't trust people these days.
Thefts like that are so infuriating.
Ouch. Beautiful view though.
The blog post was more about the 15 000 kilometers, but of course shit happens. And I have taken all of my photos during m the rides. All of them.
Maybe not a good time of the year to risk anything. The photo is however very good though.
Great view indeed then why do I think that that all are crashed cyclists. (Joke).
