Image23rd overall...AND...16th among virtual teams ... rats!!

An aside: a meaningful one. How Not To Get Hit By Cars is always the objective of cyclists (and pedestrians). While doing some background searches for a cycling vision zero initiative, I came across the linked article by Bicycle Austin. It's excellent, so I am sharing it here for those who may erg in the saddle, and ride the roadways other times. The author, Michael Blue Jay, covers ten different collision types that absolutely can happen and provides ways to avoid them. With Marvel-esque collision names like The Red Light of Death, The Door Prize, Right Hook, Left Cross, Right Cross, and Rear End...who could resist?! Lane positioning while riding, and choosing low volume streets are big common themes. Cycling vision zero is all about finding ways to reduce or eliminate serious crashes and fatalities. I think you'll learn something whether you are a motorist and/or a cyclist! http://bicyclesafe.com

All is not lost, but slip sliding is happening. In the virtual team competition, we have less than 200 K between where we were yesterday (16th) and where we are today. Everyone is still allowed to keep adding team members for a couple more days...and this impacts us in both good and less good ways! Hang in there!

:lol: I fear it may have suffered in translation, or perhaps from too much sake waiting for the power to come back.

Thankfully, I had a flashlight. These candles would have definitely singed my scalp by the time the power came back.
P.S. This image seemed somewhat suited to the sitting in the dark theme, but actually is about some ancient Japanese death curse - which fortunately can be warded off with a flashlight and lots of sake.
