Cycling into the cloud

One of the things I love about the #Fediverse: random people's #biking maps. Whether they're riding close to my house, in my long-lost hometown, somewhere else I once lived, or in a place I know nothing about, I dig seeing everyone's zigs and zags.
@gcvsa has a question for about parking your cycle:
Q7. What is the maximum length of time you feel comfortable parking your bicycle in public where you cannot see it? Please answer with type of bicycle and type of community, and any other details you feel are relevant.
@pete asks:
Q4. There's the joke that says 'my greatest fear is that if I die my partner will sell my bikes for what I told them they cost'
But that aside, do your significant others or family share, accept, or flat-out despair of your love of cycling and all that this might entail?
@arnodegroote asks:
Q3. I asked about favourite gear a few weeks ago, and in the same category I just thought of another one to discuss!
What's the most overrated piece of gear in the cycling world?
@MartyCormack asks:
Q2. I am interested in phenology: the study of cyclic and seasonal natural phenomena, especially in relation to climate, plant and animal life
Cycling nearly every day gets me outside often to see what's happening in nature. In Minnesota, there are wide variations in the progression of the seasons.
Are other cyclists doing the same? What tools or techniques do you use to record observations?

Our introduction question with help from @xtaran:
Q1. Where are you posting from today? What's something that you _don't_ do by cycle, but do by car? What would a cycle need to change that?
Rode along the Berwickshire coast. Amazingly beautiful, but hard going, and with a fierce headwind. Much slower than expected. Fun ride! #cycling

Look I admit I am a cheapskate, at best an enthusiastic bargain hunter.
But I just can't bring myself to pay much over $100 for a pair of bibs.
Am I being too cheap - are $200+ bibs really worth the cost?
How am I to criticize my partner's spending on fashion items if I am spending more on my hobby clothes?
Ooh, the book "When driving isn't an option" is great. Author has an upcoming event in Ottawa, if you're up there. #cycling #bicycling #urbanism #biketooter
Today's installment of Biking in LA, a roundup of #cycling news not just from #LosAngeles
This does not surprise me. Poor battery quality seems to plague e-bikes with after market kits (and others). BUT there is a failure in relation of the sellers - Amazon and Ebay sell this risky shit all the time with no come back. Maybe they should be forced to take responsibility - and that includes criminal liability.
I never had Barrow-in-Furness down on my bucket list, but I cycled round Walney and Barrow yesterday and have to admit to being pleasantly surprised.
This is the channel between the island and the mainland, with some Lakeland fells in the background.

I went for a spring bike ride in the Grizedale Forest yesterday, and had the place nearly to myself.
