115. The very last thing in this trip: i was photobombed by this adorable creature!

That's it for this time.
 
My last joyride through the Moscow on my Sur-Ron. It was a nice warm evening, at the very end of the summer 2023. I've rode after that, but just for a commuting or for a test purposes. So it was the last time in my life where i just set my eyes to a horizon and ride without a certain goal.

81. You can see my actual apartment building in the reflection.

And that is all i can give you, i'm afraid. I've posted all my e-bike rides here in this long thread.

I'm gonna post something in my Dzen blog and my Telegram channel, but not much. And i'm gonna try and answer the following posts and questions in this tread, while i can.

What is blue stuff?
 
What is blue stuff?
Looks like a blue colored PVC granules (or some other polymer, google up "blue polymer granules", there would be a lot of a similar images). How it's got there - is a complete mystery to me!

Thank you for taking the time to document your travels... reminds me of some of the good times I had working in Xhanty-Mansisky in the oil business.
 
So many empty roads in a major metropolitan city. Why?
Mostly it's a mix of luck, deep knowledge of the city and patience :LOL: Moscow roads are notoriously busy most of the time, it's me, who hunting for a places where one can still find an empty roads. A time of a day, the day of the week, a roadworks - all goes into account. Sometimes it's unfinished road, sometimes it's the new unpopular route, sometimes it takes me several minutes of waiting until the road is clear enough for me to take a shot. Hence the different image of the Moscow streets in my photos!

Very nice.
🤝 Thanks!

Thank you! Actually, i've visited Khanty-Mansiysk for a short time during our epic trip to Salekhard and back in the spring of 2011. The majestic oasis amongst a vast frozen tundra!

Looks like bulk plastic (polyethylene, polystyrene, etc.). That's what almost all plastics look like before extrusion.
I'm totally agree with you. The mystery is how it got there in the first place 🤔
