Cycling 2017

I'm going to post my cycling jaunts here, and I invite others to do the same, if desired. Perhaps we can encourage one another, enjoy shared scenic photos, and share experiences. If no one else joins in, that's OK with me. It will be a journal of my pedaling, if nothing else.

I typically ride with my son, who will be 25 in a few weeks. We ride rail trails in and around Pittsburgh. Western PA is quite hilly, but rail trails afford us gentle, if never ending, slopes, and terrific...

So, what will it be this month? Haunted Bookshop? Autumn Evening? Maybe a nice churchwarden in preparation for sitting the cold months out in a nice chair with a book. Whatever it is, lets see it all here!

Newbie from Croatia checking in

Hello people,greetings from Croatia!
I am 40 year old and a 2.5month newbie in wet shaving.
I am also proud member of croatian wet shaving forum brijačnica.com .
Our forum is full of links to B&B so I asked myself why not to become a member myself.
I started with Wilkinson classic Derazor,and now I use Fatip Grande Testina Gentile.
I am currently in a phase of search a holy grail safety blade for my face,so after testing whole bunch of blades I hope I 'll know that answer in a year

How long should you use aftershave balms

I have a tube of Hugo Boss Pure that I got from my father after he passed away. That has been four years now and I don't know how long he had it before he passed away. I used it yesterday and it still smells good and I had no irritation or skin break out.

First straight razor shave

So, I just completed my first shave with "shave ready" straight razor.

It was given/traded to me by B&B member - his own words: "freshly honed to best of his ability". I have nothing to compare to at this point so I can't say how sharp this razor is comparing to other straights. I did the "arm hair" test before and felt that perhaps I had to cut hair on my arm a bit closer to the skin than recommended (probably a good thing for someone on his first attempt?)
Razor is "unknown" brand, and...
