Thank you, what a great start to a Friday!
The front of the Moorish castle in Ponce, Puerto Rico. The castle was a family home, about 12,000 sq. ft., four floors, 15 hired help including the gardener, chef and kitchen staff, two towers, an open central courtyard with the home opening onto it on the main and bedroom level. Three generations of the influential family lived here. It is cast from concrete with molded 'stones', lintels, and other treatments.
It was built in (if I remember correctly) the 1930s and three generations of the Serralles family lived here, before it was sold for some $400K to the city of Ponce... perhaps too expensive for the scattered and large family to maintain? In these ways it very much reminded me of its Portland, Oregon contemporary, the Pittock Mansion.
I wanted the bike to be an updated version of a French Mixte Porteur bicycle that is shown in Jan Heine's "Golden Age of Handbuilt Bicycles."
My wife loves bright yellow, like sunflowers. I'm very happy with the color too.

Shaun and Dan's very decorative corbels are now in place on the façade. These are near copies of those on the original building on Elvet Road in Durham. The only difference is that our corbels are 60mm wider to accommodate the width of the concealed structural steel that we have needed to use in order to safely re-create the curve on the building’s gable end.
Post ride admiring. Yes, I'm prejudice about its look. I felt like a popsicle by this time. // I thought of using North Road bars on this bike, inverted, but the top tub is quite short. When I come to a stop there's barely room to stand between seat and bar.
With sub-zero temperatures as low as -22 with the wind chill, the calves’ water and food supply freezes over, leaving the animals to suffer from thirst in addition to being inadequately protected by their plastic huts.

Riding a front-loaded bike takes a few minutes to get used to, but it works fine once you're familiar with it. Front loads have the advantage of being easy to keep track of while you ride. Often front platform (or porteur) racks are much wider than rear carriers, which makes them especially good for carrying bulky, low-density items, like a big package of toilet paper.
This rack I'm not entirely satisfied with. I don't feel the rails around the edge offer much additional functionality. The holes between the bars are so big that just about anything will fall out -- it can't function as an easy to use basket. At the same time, the rails prevent me from easily strapping down items that are larger than the platform. I want to find a wicker basket (maybe picnic style?) that fits in the front perfectly. Either that, or swap it out for a simple platform.
I was sad to hear they were tearing down the old brick children's hospital that has been out of use for years. But instead of tearing it down I was told that they are converting it into some custom condos. but before that happened I had to sneak in and capture some history
I consider the Village of Morton to be a "suburb" to Gainsborough, because there is no "green belt" between them. Indeed, strictly speaking, the left-hand or Southern side of the Village's principal road - Front Street, seen here - lies in the Gainsborough Parish.
The two houses seen here are interesting: closest to the camera is St. Oggs, named, of course, after the name author George Eliot gave to Gainsborough in her classic novel The Mill on the Floss.
The building beyond is Number 16, Front Street, an Eighteenth Century house, which carries a Grade 2 listing.
I'm very pleased the way this shot turned out - not bad, considering that I used the fairly poor Kodak Gold 200 film in a camera that is well over 70 years old.
This is a location I'd love to take one day sans cars.
