@skinnylatte A clarification on the purple urchins: we want to remove them from areas where they are decimating the kelp beds because the starfish (one of their predators) are diminished, but in other areas they are fine. One example is Pillar Point tidepools in Half Moon Bay. There’s no kelp right there. Yet people think they need to pick off the nasty purple urchins. Yes, the urchins can be harvested (with a state fishing license) but they don’t need to be eradicated.

I came across a local crafter making merino beanies DYED WITH PURPLE SEA URCHINS (urchins are super invasive and we need to remove them asap for the rest of the animals and kelp) and of course I’m going to get one -
New bike day!@skinnylatte I’m in love myself. I’m surprised I got a Tern. Was really sold on a Gazelle. But then I thought about being able to put my feet down at stops and kept looking. Got it at Avenue Cyclery, where I once bought a bike about 40 years ago.

New bike day!New bike day! Tern NBD, which I guess means No Big Deal (it is though), but it also means New Bike Day. Ta-daaa!
I was debating names: Ternip, My Tern, Seagull, Albatross, etc. But I think I’ll go with Sooty Shearwater, since she’s a nice sooty color.
@kimu and @bikemonterey, thanks for your input.
