In case you would sometimes like to listen to music while still hearing what's around you (sometimes too well), my Pixel Buds have a great transparency mode! Good for longer rides in the forest.

I love this idea, but who could possibly be joyful enough to be Ernie Clement?

The Helsinki region's new light rail line 15 is such an improvement to what we had before. Dedicated tracks, frequent service, high average speed, and great rolling stock. Plus, it comes with loads of AAA bike lanes along the length of the line!

After a long time on the other site it's time to finally try something new. Expect my love for Helsinki and Finland, urbanism, and dining cars on trains to shine through. Good to be here - please look at my bike.
