Not a milestone, obviously. It happened on Friday.
Wynona came to live me in May 2020. We have since spent 10,000 km together.
On an unimportant aside: Wasn’t it so much more satisfying when we had those little mechanical clickety clack odometers? When the big number came closer and the little plates were all straining with anticipation to flip over and finally they did so with a satisfying little clack?

My preferred transport these days is my bike, called Wynona Rider, sometimes in combination with trains. But I explore mainly our immediate surroundings within a reasonable perimeter for the combination of old legs and a newish e-bike. FOWC with Fandango: Mine
Since I’ve bought Wynora about three and a half years ago we’ve done well over 7000 km together. Our car feels rather neglected and I rarely use it around town. I drive with Wynora even in winter unless is raining hard or the roads are slick. We definitely have an everyday if somewhat mundane relationship.

I love that my e-bike allows me to be spontaneous. Her name is Wynora Rider!

Wynora Rider is my trusted road companion. Together for just over 3 years we’ve almost reached the 6000km mark.

The tech is in the bike itself, in the cell phone on the handlebar, in the power bank in front of the handlebar, in my bluetooth earbuds – and I use all of it for transport!

I’ve been planning to get a new bike for awhile but thanks to Corona I delayed the acquisition. In the meantime our ways of doing things has changed: I do all the shopping on my own which we often did together beforehand. I don’t use public transport anymore. As we shouldn’t go out for joyrides (they always were a guilty pleasure due to environmental reasons) my radius has shrunk. So when the shops opened again I made a very impulsive decision and bought a pedelec – complete with bags for shopping and/or my camera.
It is such a beauty – I call her Winona Rider, by the way – that even the local bird life is interested:
But I got my own back, being equally curious and being stealthy and very quiet (thanks to Winona):
