Days are getting longer and clouds went away for a while . It was really one fine afternoon today and a quick spin with the bike seemed the right thing to do after work. Few posts before (many weeks ago, even months..) I was posting about a crap bike that was hanging around my garage.
Well, it got rebuilt during this winter, got a fresh spray ob mat black from a can, few new parts and some old but useful parts that were laying around at home, and here we are, the first official photo from today’s ride trough Barje (the waterish land in our neighbourhood):
It’s a fine ride, fitted with mud guards to keep the dirt away from the rider. I really like riding it now, it rolls smooth and well, completely different thing as it was before.
As It was already late in the afternoon and the dusk was was less than an hour away, I spotted few group of wild life catching a snack before dark. It’ s great having a small piece of wilderness just in-front of our homes. I hope this area stays protected environment and hunters don’t shoot all wild animals down so we keep on seeing them every day.
Do you have a garden? They you might think differently about those deer, putting one or two of those tasty things in your freezer
Where I live the deer are way over populated, the old timers tell me it’s because they aren’t kept in check like they used to when people relied on them for winter meat. Now they aren’t even scared of me standing 10 feet away when I start up my chainsaw to cut fire wood.
We live in a penthouse with a view over this waterish land.
Local hunters say there are even bears in those bushes from time to time. It sounds weird, but two years ago the shot a bear cub.
And this was something like 2 km out of Ljubljana, 6km from the capital’s centre. And our country is not something like Alaska.
