假日攜帶腳踏車搭乘捷運 7月21日起晚間7點後至營運結束止增加為開放時段

http://www.trtc.com.tw/c/hotshow.asp?id=1391


臺北捷運公司今(19)日宣布,自96年7月21日(週六)起,增加假日晚間7時以後至當天營運結束為止,開放旅客攜帶腳踏車搭乘捷運,進出「淡水至新店線」及「北投至南勢角線」的15個特定車站。臺北捷運現行開放攜帶腳踏車搭乘的時段,為週六、週日及國定假日上午6時起至下午4時止。

臺北捷運開放假日攜帶腳踏車進出,採人車合併收費,單趟不限里程,票價每張新臺幣壹佰元整。開放進出的車站,包括:紅樹林站、竹圍站、關渡站、北投站、唭哩岸站、明德站、士林站、圓山站、雙連站、頂溪站、南勢角站、中正紀念堂站、公館站、大坪林站、新店站等15個車站,不同運行路線換線搭乘的旅客,僅限於唭哩岸站、明德站、士林站、圓山站轉車。攜帶腳踏車未依規定於上述車站進出及轉乘之旅客,將依大眾捷運法第五十條第一項第四款處罰。

臺北捷運公司表示,自93年1月17日開放假日攜帶腳踏車搭乘捷運以來,獲社會大眾肯定,由於該公司新購電聯車已經陸續上線營運,假日車廂內的擁擠狀況稍有紓解。經檢討假日下午4時至7時仍為列車承載率最高的尖峰時間,仍不宜開放攜帶腳踏車搭乘,晚間7時以後至營運結束為止,系統則有餘裕空間運載攜帶腳踏車搭乘的旅客。

根據統計,93年開放假日攜帶腳踏車搭乘捷運以來,累計運量已達36,000餘輛次,93年平均每個開放日運送62輛、94年平均每個開放日運送75輛、95年平均每個開放日運送121輛、96年至6月24日平均每個開放日運送127輛,使用運量呈現穩定成長趨勢。

每日一好話

前幾日,在車店跟某鄉民聊天的時候,學到了每日一好話。

譬如說:看到把 Avid SPEED DIAL ULTIMATE http://sram.com/en/avid/levers/index.php 調的很重,大概是可以拿來練握力那種的調法,就要說他,調的很"札實"。

所以呢,看到偷料嚴重的產品或是偷斤減兩的店家或賣家,我們要說,真是輕量化的極致。

看到年紀跟長相不符的,我們也只能說他駐顏有術了,管他是實際年齡大於外表,還是外表大於實際年齡。 :P

Where was my bike made?


Where was my bike made? - allanti.com

看看你車子的產地。 啊... 我的車子沒在上面 Orz

Or, who actually made my bike?

Revised March 1, 2007
Kerry Roberts is the owner of The Bicycle Company, the parent company of Allanti Bicycle Company, the Bike Pedlar, and The Jolly Cyclist in Nashville, Tennessee. He also provides consulting services to the bicycle industry.

The information contained in this report comes primarily from Bicycle Retailer and Industry News' 2007 Factory and Suppliers Guide, published in the October 1, 2006, issue. Bicycle Retailer and Industry News is the definitive trade publication in the bicycle industry. Other sources of information include trade show and factory visits, technical writers in the cycling media, and bicycle company employees who wish to remain anonymous.


Some bike companies have a few secrets. And one of those secrets is where your bike is made or who actually made it. The bike companies like it that way because many of them rely upon the same factories to build their bikes!

The big picture is pretty clear: most of the bikes sold in the U.S. are made in China or Taiwan by a handful of manufacturers of which Giant is the largest.

Generally speaking, low to mid level bikes are made in China and mid to high level bikes are made in Taiwan.

Bikes are produced in other countries, but Asian factories probably produce 95% of the units sold in the United States. Incidentally, the "big three" (Giant, Trek, and Specialized) account for almost 80% of all bikes sold in U.S. bike shops.

Another part of the big picture is that the sticker on your bike that says "Made in Country X" doesn't necessarily mean what you think! It can actually mean one of three things:

One, it can mean that the frame was made in Country X and assembled into a complete bicycle in Country X. For example, Brand Y actually builds the frame in Country X and puts it on their assembly line to assemble it into a complete bicycle with Shimano components from Japan, wheels, handlebars, stem, and seat post from Taiwan, tires from Germany, and a seat and handlebar tape from China. The sticker on the bike says "Made in Country X" when only the frame and the final assembly were done in Country X (using components from other countries). That's accepted and no one complains.

Two, it can mean that the frame was made in Taiwan (or wherever) and imported into Brand Y's home country of X. The frame goes through the exact same assembly process and receives the same "Made in Country X" sticker. The only difference is that the frame was made in Taiwan, not Country X. This practice is a little more controversial, but it occurs frequently with European brands. In my opinion, it would clear up quite a bit of confusion is the stickers said "Assembled in Country X."

Three, in the case of a frame only, it can mean the frame was made in Taiwan (or wherever) and imported into Brand Y's home country of X for finishing and painting. This is very common with high-end brands - especially European-brand carbon frames. The frame gets a sticker that says "Made in Country X." I don't agree with this. Consumers are entitled to a transparent process with accurate information that is not misleading.

With these things in mind, here is an alphabetical brand by brand run down of the bikes sold in Nashville, with a few bits of trivia.

Bianchi - As I was writing this, it occurred to me that Bianchi and Schwinn have remarkably similar histories. Both were turn-of-the-century family-owned companies, manufactured their own bicycles, were popular brands in their respective countries, fell upon hard times, were eventually sold, moved substantially all of their production to Asia, and have seen a resurgence in the past few years under new owners!

In 1996, Bianchi was sold to a Swedish conglomerate (now known as Cycleurope1) whereas Schwinn went through several owners before winding up with Pacific in 2001.2

Under Cycleurope, which owns 11 bicycle brands,3 much of the bicycle production shifted from Italy to Asia, with the exception of some final bicycle assembly (i.e., Asian frames assembled into complete bicycles) and limited high-end production.

Let me take a minute and address Reparto Corse bicycles, because their "Made in Italy" sticker is a source of confusion.

The historic Treviglio factory - a monstrosity of a thing which used to house much of Bianchi's manufacturing before it shifted to Asia - has a section dedicated to Reparto Corse. It used to be that Reparto Corse (RC) meant the race department where high-end bikes were made. Now it is used as sort of a branding logo to identify the upper-end bikes that get the RC design and marketing treatment.

Many of the RC bikes have a "Made in Italy" sticker, which usually means assembled in Italy using a frame made in Asia. For example, the carbon RC frames are made by Advanced International Multitech (a Taiwanese carbon manufacturer of bike parts, baseball bats, golf shafts, arrows, fishing poles, etc.) and the aluminum frames are made by Taiwan Hodaka.

There are some frames still welded at Treviglio. My understanding is that the aluminum frames with carbon rears are either welded there or, at least, bonded there. I also understand that the frames with foam injection have the injection process completed there, even if the frames come from Asia.

Although Taiwan Hodaka manufacturers many of Bianchi's U.S. models, Fairly and Giant have manufactured for Bianchi in the past.

Cannondale - Aluminum Cannondales are made in the U.S. Cannondale, which was owned by founder Joe Montgomery and his son Scott. Cannondale is now owned by its key investment fund after experiencing financial problems. Cannondale's market share appears to have diminished but stabilized. Because it is owned by an investment fund, it is constantly rumored for sale. The carbon bikes are sourced from Asia.

Colnago - In 1944, when Ernesto Colnago served as a 12-year old apprentice in the shop of Dante Fumagalli, did he have any idea he would become the most famous of all Italian frame builders?

Colnago is, perhaps, the most coveted of all professional-quality bicycle brands - just look at the pages of VeloNews or Pro Cycling and see how many professional riders race on Colnagos!

Frames are still hand-made in Italy, except for three entry level aluminum models made in Taiwan (probably by Giant) and the carbon CLX, which is also made in Taiwan.4

De Rosa - De Rosa is an Italian company that is one of the Italian "big three" that includes Colnago and Pinarello. Ugo De Rosa, along with his sons, have been building bikes for over 50 years. As far as I know, all bikes are made in Italy.

Ducati - Bianchi has announced a licensing agreement with Ducati to produce a line of bikes with the Ducati name. It is my understanding that the frames will be sourced from Asia with the final assembly at Treviglio.

Felt - Felt is a fairly new bicycle company, started by motocross guru Jim Felt. All production comes from Asia.

Fisher - Gary Fisher is the "godfather" of mountain bikes. After struggling with his own bicycle company, he sold his brand to Trek Bicycle Company. Still involved in designing and marketing his brand, Gary is a popular figure at bicycle industry events. He's sort of a cult figure with an unmatched sense of fashion! Fisher bikes are made in Asia, except for the full-suspension rigs (which are made in Wisconsin).

Fuji - Fuji is now owned by Ideal, who manufacturers most of their bikes. Ideal is one of the key Taiwanese manufacturers along with Giant and Merida. Ideal also manufactures for other brands. Topkey of China manufacturers Fuji's carbon frames.

Giant - You may have ridden a bicycle made by Giant without knowing it! Giant is the world's largest bicycle manufacturer with factories in Taiwan, China, and Europe. Giant, a Taiwanese company started in 1972, manufacturers their own bikes - including the carbon bikes, which is unique in the industry (i.e., most other brands utilize other manufacturers such as Advanced or Martec).

In addition to making their own bikes, Giant also makes, or has made, bikes for many other prominent brands, including Trek, Specialized, Schwinn, and Bianchi. Giant's claim to fame is that they have the most sophisticated and efficient manufacturing facilities in the bicycle industry.

A bit of trivia is that Giant owns 30% of Hodaka, a key Taiwanese supplier for many brands such as Bianchi.5

Giant also sponsors the T-Mobile professional cycling team.

Haro - a California BMX company started in 1977 by Bob Haro. All production comes from Asia. Haro owns the Masi brand. Kenstone, with factories in Tawan and China, is a key supplier.

Kestrel - Kestrel, an early pioneer in carbon frames, introduced the first production non-lugged carbon frame in 1986. Originally, frames were manufactured in California. In recent years, production shifted to Asia. The frames appear to be made by Martec.

Kona - a California company with all production from Asia. Kona, founded in 1988, is a very small company similar in size to Marin. Fairly and Hodaka in Taiwan are key suppliers.

Kuota - Kuota frames are made in Taiwan by Martec, the same manufacturer that makes Kestrel frames. Kuota is a creation of Sintema, an Italian manufacturer of components. Basically, they designed the frames, had the frames manufactured in Taiwan, and marketed the brand heavily in the U.S., Western Europe, and Australia. Kuota has been a successful brand launch in a very short period of time.

LeMond - Greg LeMond is the first American to win the Tour de France, winning in 1986, 1989, and 1990. LeMond also won three World Championships and the Tour DuPont. His career was cut short by lead poisoning from a hunting accident. LeMond's early bikes were made by Roberto Bilatto in Italy and distributed by a now-defunct company named Ten Speed Drive Imports. The Bilatto-made frames are somewhat collectible.

After an attempt to have an independent bike company, LeMond licensed his brand to Trek Bicycle Company.6 Trek now designs and markets his bikes, which are made in Asia except for the spine bikes featuring OCLV carbon (which are made in Wisconsin).

A bit of LeMond trivia is that he helped develop the first aerobar with Scott and used it in his amazing come-from-behind victory in the 1989 Tour de France.7

Litespeed - Starting in the 1980's, Litespeed was a pioneer in titanium frame building. As their reputation grew, a steady stream of cycling legends came to Litespeed for their titanium expertise. For many years, Litespeed built frames for famous brands such as DeRosa, Merckx, Basso, LeMond, Tommassini, and others.8

Litespeed was, for a period of time, the largest manufacturer of high-end bicycles in the world. All bikes, including the Merlin brand that they own, are made in Tennessee except for the carbon Pavia (which has been discontinued). The Quintana Roo brand is also owned by Litespeed but is made in Asia.

Look - Look is a French company with frames made in France and Asia. Look is also a leading pedal brand.

Marin - a California company with production from Asia, except for a handful of high-end models. Marin is a very small company similar in size to Kona. Key Asian suppliers are A-Pro, Fairly, and Sunrise.

Masi - Faliero Masi was, in my opinion, the "grandfather" of all Italian frame builders, serving as inspiration to famous frame builders like Ernesto Colnago. Faliero sold his company to Americans in the early 70's. Since then, the brand has had several owners including Schwinn! At present, the Masi brand is owned by Haro (the California BMX company)9 and the bikes are made in Asia.

One of my favorite frames was a made-in-Italy Nuovo Strada that I bought from Cumberland Transit in the 80's. Unfortunately, it was stolen in the 90's!

Alberto Masi, Faliero's son, still hand-makes the traditional Masi frames in the shadow of the Vigorelli Velodrome in Milan. Unfortunately, these frames - due the licensing of the Masi name to Haro - are not sold in the U.S. under the Masi name. Instead, these frames are sold in the U.S. under the "Milano" name.10

Merlin - see Litespeed.

Olmo - Olmo is a prominent brand in Italy. Traditionally, Olmo has been made in Italy. I don't have any information on whether any models are made in Asia.

Orbea - Orbea is one of the two large Spanish bicycle manufacturers. It is sort of like Spain's version of Trek or Schwinn. Bikes are produced in Spain and Asia. High-end carbon frames are made in Asia and "finished" (i.e., painted) in Spain.

From Bicycle Retailer and Industry News:

Orbea builds aluminum frames in-house. Carbon fiber frame production, which accounts for half of its road bikes, up from 20 percent just three years ago, is outsourced to such Chinese specialists as Martec.

But unlike many bike makers who are content to tweak stock factory frames, Orbea does all of its carbon fiber frame design, engineering and prototyping in-house. It builds its own molds for new frames and assembles several dozen prototypes before handing off manufacturing instructions to China.

"We need to keep and develop our own knowledge of composites and carbon fiber, and then to find someone who can work with us to build what we want them to build," Joseba Arizaga (Orbea's marketing manager) said. "We make the molds, the first frames, everything here in Orbea. Then, when we are ready to do mass production, we send the instructions to Asia." 11

Raleigh - A few years ago, the U.S. management team, headed by former Murray exec Bill Austin, bought Raleigh from its U.K. owners. Headquartered in Kent, Washington, production comes from Asia, with key suppliers being Kinesis and A-Pro.

Schwinn - Schwinn was for many years the largest American brand. All bicycles were made domestically until the late 80's.

In 1985, Schwinn management called mountain bikes a "fad" - oops.12 After two bankruptcies, Schwinn is now owned by Pacific, who also owns GT, Mongoose, and the Pacific (and some other brands). Pacific is headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin.

Under Pacific's ownership, the Schwinn brand is returning to prominence. Pacific sells more bicycles than any other brand in North America. However, that includes Pacific brands sold at WalMart, Target, etc.13

The bikes sold in the U.S. are made in Asia, many by Giant.

Scott USA - Scott got its start in Sun Valley, Idaho, when Ed Scott developed the first aluminum ski pole in 1958. In the 80's, Scott developed a bike line.

Eventually, Scott pulled out of the U.S. market and focused on Europe, where Scott is headquartered.14

After an absence of several years, Scott has returned to the U.S. market under the direction of Scott Montgomery of Cannondale fame. Although the company is headquartered in Switzerland, production comes from Asia, with key suppliers being Hodaka and Giant.

Serotta - Serotta is a U.S. manufacturer of high-end bicycles. It competes with Seven and Waterford and is of similar size to Waterford.

Seven - Seven is America's number one custom bicycle brand. Seven Cycles was founded by Rob Vandermark in early 1997.

Rob, previously head of R&D at Merlin Metalworks, decided to branch out on his own and develop a company to build high-end titanium and steel frames. He also wanted to offer the rider custom geometry, without extra charges and long lead times. So Rob assembled a team of experienced craftspeople who all shared a common goal: To build the highest quality, most innovative frames, and therefore provide the cyclist with the best riding experience possible.

All bikes are hand-made in Watertown, Massachusetts.

Specialized - Started in 1974 by Mike Sinyard, Specialized has enjoyed a long-standing reputation for being a leading bicycle design and marketing company.

Several years ago, Merida (a Taiwanese manufacturer) bought a substantial interest in Specialized. Although Specialized is still headquartered in California under the leadership of founder Mike Sinyard, all bikes are made in Asia. Key Asian suppliers are Merida, Ideal, and Giant.

Time - Time produces what is arguably the most advanced carbon frame in the world and all frames are hand-made in France, even the entry level frames.

Trek - It's hard to believe that America's largest bicycle brand had humble beginnings in a barn! Yet in 1976, Dick Burke - with an investment of $25,000 - started making bicycle frames in a little red barn near Madison, Wisconsin. By 1980, Trek built their first manufacturing plant in Wisconsin and the rest, as they say, is history!15

After many years of making its own bicycles in the U.S., Trek moved entry and mid level bicycle manufacturing to Asia.

In 1992, Trek introduced its proprietary OCLV carbon process (Optimum Compaction Low Void) which is still used in its handmade carbon frames. All OCLV carbon frames - road and mountain - are still made in Waterloo, Wisconsin. The all-carbon 5000 (which does not feature OCLV) is made in Asia.

Worldwide, Trek is the second largest bicycle company after Giant (of the brands sold only in bicycle stores). They are one of the most sought-after brands by U.S. dealers because of their strong commitment to brick and mortar bicycle stores (i.e., the brand cannot be sold mail order or over the Internet) and because of their dealer-friendly policies.

Trek owns (or licenses) Fisher, LeMond, Klein, and Bontrager.

Tommasini - Tommasini is a small Italian frame builder in Grosseto, Italy, of similar size to Seven, Waterford, and Serotta. Much of Tommasini's production is exported out of Italy, with their largest markets being the U.S., Germany, and Japan. In September 2006, Irio Tommasini's nieces took over U.S. distribution and are relaunching the brand in the U.S.16

Waterford - Waterford is America's number one steel custom bicycle brand. All bikes are hand-made in Waterford, Wisconsin.

In the late 1970's, a young rider, designer and builder named Marc Muller was hired by the Schwinn Bicycle Company. He brought the experience and innovation from his own framebuilding enterprise and took charge of building the Paramounts, the dominant brand of American-build racing bicycles.

In the early 1980's, Marc moved the Paramount factory to Waterford, Wisconsin and continued building elite bicycles and also created a cycling design laboratory.

Marc and his staff introduced a number of key innovations including oversized tubing (one of the most significant advances in frame design), 26" wheels, cast-in cable guides and a patented full suspension system. These advances allowed them to design and build bikes for National and World champions such as Ned Overand, Marc Allen, Mike Engleman, Tom Prehn and many others.

In 1993, Marc Muller and Richard Schwinn, great-grandson of Ignaz Schwinn, bought the Paramount factory and renamed it Waterford Precision Cycles.17

Marc is now one of the most respected bike designers in the entire bicycle industry. And Waterford, with a one hundred year heritage in bicycle manufacturing, continues to make a winning, world class frames one at a time.

Waterford is 90 minutes north of Chicago. If you visit Chicago, feel free to call for a factory tour.

What have I missed? Let me know and I'll be happy to reply. Again, you may wish to consult Bicycle Retailer and Industry News' 2007 Factory and Suppliers Guide, published in their October 1, 2006, issue. The guide lists which factories the U.S. brands use for their manufacturing.

Reach 入手第一天




Reach Off-road


http://www.hometec.com.tw/prod.asp?catid=2&pid=10



最近拿到了 鴻太科技標榜可以跟大輪車有相同騎乘感的的小徑折疊車 Reach,製造廠是 太平洋 http://www.pacific-cycles.com/



外型是還不錯,跟 KUWAHARA GAAP 很像,,折疊的轉點都是在後避震上,但是 GAAP 處理的比較好,裡面還藏有小輪子,折起來後還可以推著走。GAAP的摺疊式紙要拆前輪就可以折了,前後輪都拆,當然就可以折的更小。



入手第一天,馬上感受到吱吱的感受,這不是松鼠的吱吱,是老鼠的吱吱叫,很直覺的事後避震似乎沒處理好,聲音相當擾人,每彈跳一下就吱吱一聲,爽度減至 50%。


騎回家的過程加速向還算相當不錯,不過因為我是跟 Dahon Speedpro 的感覺來比較,我覺得坐起來的感覺差不多,加速性也不會太差,這是優點。不過照理說,近似大車的騎乘角度,抽車應該也一樣才對,但是我覺得比 SPEEDPRO 晃的還嚴重。 :<


摺疊性:要折疊就必須拆前後輪,這樣的感覺跟登山車沒兩樣啊,僅僅只有車架折疊而已。


因為用的是V煞,所以拆前後輪的時候必須放煞車,但是前煞卡在前叉中,後煞躲在三角下,旁邊還卡著大盤,頗不方便。


摺疊性相當差,很難相信官方說的 30 秒可以折合是到怎樣的程度。

東北角舊草嶺隧道-丟丟咚行走之旅

東北角舊草嶺隧道-丟丟咚行走之旅
'07/05/30 21:54 台灣鐵道網

【台灣鐵道網 / 北部新聞中心訊】最近有許多鐵道迷紛紛相互走報,在東北角風景區有座塵封20多年的鐵路隧道即將重新開啟,6月份要開放給遊客通行,年底並將打造成北台灣第一條利用廢棄舊隧道所闢建的自行車道。

根據鐵道相關資料指出,這條隧道就是台灣民謠中「丟丟咚」歌曲裡提到的「火車山洞」,是當時台灣最長的隧道,工程艱鉅浩大且對北宜交通開發史佔有重要地位,自民國75年鐵道改線後廢棄封閉迄今。

而為配合台鐵120週年慶,觀光局與鐵路局共同辦理「東北角舊草嶺隧道-丟丟銅行走之旅」活動,將於6月2日(六)開始到6月24日(日)的每個星期六、日,上午9點至下午2點,將封閉已久的隧道重新開放供民眾行走,同時在活動期間邀請漫畫人物老夫子代言,此外也將搭配發行紀念車票、文物展示、攝影展及CK124蒸汽火車喜相逢等精彩活動。

「丟丟銅行走之旅」活動路線是以步行方式自福隆車站→舊草嶺隧道北口→行走隧道→舊草嶺隧道南口→石城聚落→海岸→石城服務區,於石城服務區並有國光客運接駁遊客至大里遊客中心停車場,遊客於大里可再前往遊客服務中心、慶雲宮、草嶺古道、大溪漁港等知名景點或於大里火車站搭乘區間車返回福隆。

遊客不必擔心隧道安全問題,東北角風管處開放前已委請顧問公司評估結構安全無虞後才開始進行內部整理,隧道裡還貼心裝置了照明設備,讓遊客能安心行走其中,享受這趟刺激的旅程。舊草嶺隧道全長2,167公尺,隧道南、北兩端出口均以厚4B之磚牆築砌成階梯狀之外觀,形式雄偉,上方以石塊壓頂。二端洞口分別有「制天險」及「白雲飛處」門額,雖歷經歲月的風霜,被燻黑的石額,仍然看得出當年蒼勁的筆跡。

風管處陳梅岡處長表示將持續與鐵路局合作,積極將東北角風景區內鐵道轉化為旅遊廊道、車站轉化為旅遊節點,塑造東北角鐵道旅遊新意象。鐵路局後續也將配合推出「東北角一日週遊券」,讓遊客可以搭乘電車悠遊在風景區內,任您欣賞綿延山脈、灣岬奇岩地形,並可結合車站周邊景點從事海泳、沙雕、露營、風帆、衝浪、健行及生態之旅等多樣的遊憩活動,東北角是離台北最近的魅力旅遊區域,相信各年齡族群都可找到最適合的玩法。

運動後進食更可防發胖?

http://tw.news.yahoo.com/article/url/d/a/070606/17/fg3h.html

英國科學家研究 運動後進食更可防發胖
東森新聞報 更新日期:2007/06/07 00:36 記者:記者陳廣先、劉榮斌/報導

英國科學家最新研究顯示,運動後進食可促進身體產生壓抑食慾的荷爾蒙,從而達到減肥效果。即使在運動後食量比平常多,由於身體消耗的熱量增加,因此不會導致肥胖。

英國薩裡大學及倫敦帝國理工學院最新研究報告顯示,運動後所產生的荷爾蒙能調節下丘腦中,會影響食慾的神經,這次的研究是以實際實驗所獲得的結果,12人參加吃一樣的早餐,一個小時後,其中6個人分配去運動,而其他6人安靜的坐著不動,過了一個小時之後,兩組人又回到餐桌上,而這次他們可以吃任何想吃的東西。

結果研究顯示有運動的6個人,燃燒了多達492卡路里,而坐著不動的6個人平均下來只消耗197卡路里,差別295卡路里,不過研究也發現,運動過後的6個人後來平均吃了913卡路里,而沒有運動的人,只吃下762卡路里的東西。

專家表示過去認為運動可以燃燒脂肪,但在運動後通常會比平常吃更多,因此將會抵銷運動所消耗的卡路里,不過專家特別強調,吃完東西后,最好不要馬上進行劇烈運動,否則腸胃可能會吃不消,而這次研究也證明,運動可以改變人的食慾,從而幫助減輕以及防止發胖,是一種健康和平衡的生活方式。

2007/05/22 小偷猖狂 單車強制烙碼

小偷猖狂 單車強制烙碼


&nbsp;
更新日期:2007/05/22 07:10
記者:記者陳怡如/台北報導


很多民眾都有單車被偷經驗,為降低單車失竊率,警政署昨天決定,將強制自行車烙碼,並要求買賣時將車主資料建檔,以利追查失竊車輛。

催生此一措施的警政署交通組長何國榮表示,單車因為沒有車牌,一旦被偷很難找回來,即使在治安良好的荷蘭,單車失竊率也高居五成以上,台灣一般民眾也知道報案效果有限,導致單車竊案一直是個「黑數」;曾有民間單位估算,全台單車失竊數量高達一千多萬到兩千萬輛之間。

而外界不知道的是,何國榮本身也是單車失竊大戶,三年內被偷七輛車,更慘的是,何國榮上個月才砸下三萬五千元買進一台高檔單車,為防止小偷光顧,新車還特別上了兩道鎖,但車子才騎兩三天,大小鎖就被竊賊鋸斷,三萬五千元不翼而飛。

何國榮氣不過還向派出所報案,之後何國榮為了代步又花三千九百元買了一輛自行車,但前天停在羅斯福路上又被偷,一個月內連續被偷兩次,連身為全國交通最高警政主管的何國榮也很無奈,但他仍強調單車失竊和治安好壞無關,「只能說它太好偷了」。

何國榮指出,近期警政署將邀集自行車製造業者、交通部等相關單位研商自行車烙碼,並要求業者在出售自行車時將車主資料建檔,以利警方追查竊案。

立委李鴻鈞表示,日本為防止自行車失竊,也採取自行車烙碼的做法,車主還可到派出所辦理登記,並貼上警方發給的標籤,一方面恐嚇竊賊,另一方面也可在車子被偷時,方便警方追回。

此外,立法院交通委員會昨天也初審通過「道路交通管理處罰條例第六十九條修正草案」,正式將自行車納入交通運具管理。

何國榮表示,現行交通法令對自行車幾乎沒有規範,騎自行車上路應該走哪個車道、是否要兩階段轉彎、如何穿越馬路、是否要戴安全帽等都缺乏明確規定,嚴重危及自行車騎士安全,以去年為例,自行車死亡車禍件數佔總交通事故近百分之六,肇事比率偏高。

070518 河濱社子島夜騎

三人組很久沒夜騎了,前天跟 N 提到,應該不是比較少去夜市的緣故吧。 XD

這次進出河濱的路線都比較特別,進河濱是從台北市上中正橋,就剛好在橋上又邊有個下去的木造樓梯,牽下去就是河濱了,但是,中正橋上車輛眾多,那邊又剛好是環河快速道路接中正橋的交叉口,非常危險,真是怪異的設計? 就算是從台北縣端過來,依然沒有從橋下可以接到這邊的人行道啊,怪怪怪。 出河濱是回來的時候抬上光復橋,一般我都是上去後右轉板橋回家,第一次上去後左轉滑下去台北市,然後又跑去吃消夜了。這個接口之前有個很慘的新聞是,半夜有位單車騎士從台北要到板橋的時候,在這邊被三個人拿機車大鎖圍毆,掛了沒我忘了,不過血跡斑斑是有的。

因為有 M 的關係,所以速度都拉很高,不過這樣才有鍛鍊到 :P 在大稻埕碼頭還遇到 Yego,一群單車朋友的非單車聚會,看來是吃吃喝喝聚會,好想參加啊。 XD 不過聊了大燈之後就繼續往前行了。

過了大稻埕碼頭之後,就是一串的高速前進,第一段是大稻埕到社子島入口,第二段式社子島一圈,第三段就是社子島入口回大稻埕,都是很好飆的路線。

SIGMA的轉速常常是空白,不然就是飄移在50到180之間,好險到後來回程的第三段有恢復正常,轉速大約可以維持在 90~103 之間,第一段的速度可以維持在 35km/hr 上下,到第三段的時候維持在 32km/hr,騎社子島一圈果然還是比較爽的。不過社子島的後半段野狗遍遍,還是不要獨自一人比較好。

這次的轉速明顯可以維持比較高,其實我覺得姿勢的改變還是很重要,從剛開始騎車的時候我就發現,把太極拳的鬆肩垂肘觀念拿來騎車還蠻有用的,我用鬆肩垂肘加上收手肘的方式通常可以有比較高的轉速,但是問題有二,一是現在用的休息把當手肘收起來之後沒法一直維持姿勢;二是這樣之後當然比較趴,然後大肚子就會常常踢到,久了容易抽筋,所以也難維持久。 Orz

最後記點快樂的,從光復橋下去之後,帶隊到寶興街的小夜市吃點挫冰,八樣35圓,還蠻划算的,M 點的鳳梨雪花冰好像就弱了點,下次再去南機場吃另一家吧。不過我對寶興街這家店的印象是燒仙草吃得出來是用仙草去熬的,草味濃厚,加上湯圓是現煮的,我很喜歡。夏天好像就沒這樣的規格了。

070516 河濱夜騎

這次好像沒甚麼可說的,就是很輕鬆的夜騎,短褲涼鞋排汗衣,放鬆心情愜意騎,騎到大稻埕而已,可以說的大概是來自彰化寶珍齋的桂圓蛋糕,不知道是不是跟新竹的混在一起了,記得以前吃到的是一盒12個盒裝,這次拿到的是單個包裝,味道還不錯,不過熱量非常的之高,因為是最後一點的關係,就算是晚上12點還是把他嗑掉了,罪惡感深重啊。XD

070513 至善路 + Speedpro 見聞

07:00 出發
07:40 至善路 burger king
至善路-碧溪-萬溪-至善路-雙溪河濱公園-百齡橋-百齡橋左岸-延平河濱往南-光復橋


這次最有趣的,莫過於看到三台 Speedpro。

第一次是一對才子佳人兩人都騎 Speedpro,在東吳大學門口遇到。第二次是在河濱道,某位女生騎的。

再隔幾天晚上去中社的時候,我也忘了是哪一天,總之就是中社上面沒燈的那天,也遇到一台 Speedpro,都是新版的,中社山上遇到那台後變是 105,TT把,握起來還蠻舒服的,怪異的是他裝的卡踏一邊是卡踏一邊是正常踏板,但是因為重心的關係,永遠都是踏板面在上,這樣要上卡的時候還要在那邊踢踏板,把卡踏面踢上來,相當浪費時間,總之就是一個怪異。不然 TT 把握起來真是舒服啊 XD


再之前遇到的 Speedpro,一次是在信義區,忠孝東路要往南港方向,一男一女,男的騎 Speedpro,女的印象中好像是 JetStream。


印象最深刻的是在洲美橋下,遇到一家人,爸爸是騎最低等級的 P8,媽媽騎JetStream XP,三個小孩通通騎 Speddpro XD 這是我第一次同時看到那麼多台 Speedpro,印象怎能不深刻呢。 :)


倒是很想找台 Speedpro 一起比看看啊。

三加一越嶺行

  今天早上六點半有自動起床,可是沒有任何約定的騎車行程,又是回床矇頭大睡。想到昨天從中央騎到觀音海邊的燈塔,實在是騎不過癮,中午,M傳訊來說下午要不要騎車,當然說好。通常這種沒有特別約定的騎車行程,最常去的路線就是沒去過的路線,崇德街接研究院路這條路上次從南港方向錯過,這次就決定先從崇德街開始。

  本來約15:30,可是今天待在盆地內實在是不智之舉,要下不下的濕氣,悶熱的要命,那是一定要上山避暑的,早點出發,還可以去平溪吃個芋圓冰爽一下。於是就暫訂路線崇德街-研究院路-南深路-雙菁路,14:30六張犂集合,能找的人只有兩三隻 MSN 看不到人,最後只有兩個。

  家裡到六張犁約半小時,只有兩個人機動性高,到了後不停留,馬上接上崇德街,前行沒多久,沒想到才過了一個紅綠燈,馬上進入人煙稀少的山區,用不到五分鐘,就進入了示範墓區以及極樂墓區。一路山風颯爽,風景陰涼,配上最寂靜的喧囂,寧靜中只有飛輪的聲音伴著有點輕鬆又不太輕鬆的山路蜿蜒而上,塵世悶熱感頓消,果然來這邊避暑是對的。

  說輕鬆又不會太輕鬆的意思是,小輪徑就是應該要用高轉速來爬山,齒比輕,當然轉的輕鬆愜意,不過綿延的山路好像騎都騎不完,後段到了回教區那邊,坡不陡,不過綿延的還蠻長。到了半高不高點,右邊是往木柵路四段,下去是動物園那邊。我們選了左邊接研究院路四段,翻過山頭,沿著溪流下滑,更是涼快,右下是北二高,對岸就是等下要去的南深路了吧。

  崇德街加研究院路大概騎了半小時多一點,到中研院跟胡適公園的路口右轉舊莊路,下個路口再右轉南深路,馬上會有一個小陡坡,穿過北二高後,過紅綠燈左轉就對了。第二嶺南深路是最悶熱的路段,樹蔭少,又是盆地面,每次都是下午來,西曬的陽光又大又悶,維持一貫高轉速,左邊是垃圾掩埋場,只想快速通過這最透明的味道。十五分後,到了山豬窟就是高點,才開始會有山風襲來,深南路下是又寬又大,一路下滑,享受征服高點後的餘韻。

  下到底左轉106,右轉第一個自然橋,到底左轉接深坑外環道(文山路一段),到雙溪口便利商店,從南深路上山開始到這邊又是一個半小時。因為太熱,今天在便利商店就先吃了冰棒,明治布丁大雪糕 Meji Purin Ice Bar($15),便宜大碗,口味熟悉不踩地雷,M買了橘子口味的冰棒就直說地雷連連了。碼表也到這邊才開始有動作,sigma 的線還真是容易鬆掉啊。 XD

  補給吃完冰,左上雙菁路往平溪行進,這條路不知道是不是因為芋圓的關係熟的很,我最喜歡的路段是隧道的前後,剛好可以回首來時辛苦路,青山綠樹風景好,一番滋味上心頭啊。加上一次掉鏈,鏈條還在地上往前磨了兩三秒,到公車亭大約三十五分鐘。下滑到菁桐車站,再小上白石腳,就可以下滑到平溪了。左轉石板橋進老街,小爬石板路,十字路左手邊倒數第二家就是我們最愛的平溪芋圓。

  幾乎每次經過都要來上一碗,沒吃到就好像沒來過平溪,不廢話,一停好車就來碗綜合芋圓地瓜圓($30),一樣便宜大碗,冰涼恣意,手工的芋圓就是那麼的Q,糖水也煮得頗有古風,這樣一盤,可以補充糖份澱粉碳水化合物,還可以稍微止餓,暑氣全消,不愧是上山來避暑的啊。

  餐畢,討論晚餐該吃甚麼,啥?其實好像在崇德街就開始討論晚餐了 >\\\< 好吧,是討論該走哪條路下山,想到平溪這路,大概就是汐碇汐平沒騎過,汐平就在旁邊,十字路口左轉,沿著鐵軌旁走,到底的柏油路右上就是汐平了,看了一下路邊的指標,大約 17.5KM,比從雙溪口上來的 14KM 多了三公里多,應該還好吧,四點二十分出發下山,應該差不多。

  一開始的確是不算陡的路,而且兩線柏油路面良好,少了重車的喧囂,多了兩旁的苔痕階綠,又是翠山微風,路旁還有不少看來可以泡涼的水池,讓我們對汐平的印象大好,哪知越騎到山裡面,坡是越陡,陡倒是還好,不過就是五指山萬溪產業道路的等級而已,最可惡的,是秀麗的山色背後,是一連串欺騙人的爬坡。每每看山勢應是快到高點了,轉過山凹,又有高高點,有道是「一山還有一山高」,這種心理的煎熬,大概只有第一次騎這條路的人才有享受到的權利吧。

  最後到了最後,終於爬到了真正的高點,大約在 6.5KM 處,果然這是風櫃嘴等級的,山頂的半邊稜線,讓我們想起了102公路,下個月一定要找時間再去一次,那種雙邊稜線加上可以遠眺太平洋的遼闊感,可沒幾個地方有,之前去的那次是我第一次破百(去年中秋第一次環島前一天,之後每天破百XD),大概就騎了 13xKM,欠缺補給的經驗,幾乎是一路抽筋上102,根本無暇欣賞風景,這事一定要再去的。說回汐平,真是一條不錯的路線,路線平整不說,還有翠綠山峰間雜黃土奇峰,還有溪水可玩,好路好景好玩,值得推薦。不過癮的下山後還可以直接到汐萬路上五指山看風景啊。

  下汐平後左轉新台五回市區,本來打算到松隆路吃紅趜牛肉麵,沒開!永吉路30巷烤肉飯,沒開!基隆路蒸籠坊,又沒開!餓死啦,氣死啦 >_<~  後來想到基隆路明月湯包,到了時候居然還剛好有位置,還向外的可以看顧車子,兩人點了湯包一籠($100)、煎餃一盤($100),M加點乾拌麵牛肉清湯($120),其實那個麵應該是乾拌麵加上一盅牛肉清湯,麵普普,牛肉清湯倒是相當不錯,味道鮮甜,半筋半肉的牛肉塊三塊也煮個夠軟爛,不過煮過頭的纖維感有些人就是不愛吧,像我就是。湯包也很不錯,鮮甜肉汁有完整包在裡面,內餡的肉末也很功夫剁的很碎。還有隔壁點的巴掌大的蔥油餅($40),一上桌我就聞到蔥香,應該也值得點。

  飯飽後,當然要還配個甜湯,N說臨江街通化街口的青島豆漿店的豆花($30)很不錯,衝去,有開!可是說現在還沒到夏天,沒賣冰豆花 Orz 只好轉戰附近的余記杏仁豆腐($40),雖然吃起來沒有以前吃的那樣有著濃郁的杏仁香,不過也堪慰藉肚皮了。

  今天總計爬了崇德街、南深路、雙菁路,最後意外加了一條風景秀麗的汐平,三嶺加一峰,騎得很爽,吃的也很爽囉。

106乙墨魚香腸

  話說上周六要上班,隔天本來可以輕鬆騎車的,沒想到天公不做美,一早六點就下起濛濛細雨,只能忘了約好的單車行程,繼續回床矇頭大睡,睡到十一點,起來才發現,地居然是乾的,雖然天空沒太陽,但是明顯就是不錯的天氣,馬上上網一約,就跟N約去106乙,上華梵大學。

  先到師大集合,然後爬軍功路到動物園,到石碇雙溪口,突然發現,平常休息的便利商店後面溪邊,居然多了一條紅色的吊橋。此時天空也滿布烏雲,小雨兩三滴,卻澆不熄騎車的熱情。

  繼續往石碇老街挺進,到了石碇老街當然要先來碗傳統熱豆花($20),專做豆腐的老店,兼營豆花生意,不能說有多美味,但是用料非常的純,豆花滿滿一碗,熱到燙手的薑湯倒是喝不夠,最後都會剩下一堆豆花。

  吃完豆花,天空開始飄起不小的雨絲,打電話詢問山上的天氣,應已是漫天細雨紛飛,本來要去的文山黑豆花今天也沒開,真是一點動力也沒有。不過,既然來了,淋點小雨又何妨,續上106乙豐田道路段,騎約三、四公里,就可以看到石碇馬告香腸的看板在右邊招手,引誘意志力堅強的騎士們,當然,才剛剛吃完豆花而已,還沒消化,先衝為上,回來的時候再吃吧。

  一路盤旋而上,從石碇鄉騎上坪林鄉,紛飛的細雨,在騎士的眼中根本看不見,頂多看到水滴沿著安全帽沿左搖右晃,想把他撥掉,卻又馬上生成,乾脆不理。一直上到華梵大學的路上,細雨造成的山霧籠罩舉目四周,配上秀麗的山色,細雨將身上的熱氣帶走,一點也不炎熱的騎乘,再快意也不過。從160乙左上轉進華梵大學的路上,霧氣更是恣意的瀰漫四周,頓時心中響起「山嵐雨霧無間處」的句子,心中想找個跟心境有關的,還要有部首對應的下句,卻想也想不出來,還是盡情的徜徉在山嵐雨霧中享受吧。

  話說文山黑豆花沒開,華梵大學的福利社有賣粽子,可是一問之下也沒有,嘿,出來騎車起可沒補給,我們還有備案,馬上下滑去石碇馬告香腸,這香腸是為了因應國道五號通車,人潮都被吸到宜蘭去,三種口味是店主自行研發的,他有三種馬告、紅糟跟墨魚,來了當然先吃N推薦的墨魚香腸($35),現烤的墨魚香腸果然一級棒,墨魚跟旗魚漿混合的黑色中,現出白皙清脆的墨魚塊,烤的酥脆的表皮,似乎還可以想像正在烤時的滋滋聲響,在這邊還遇到一位騎 LiteSpeed 跑車的騎士,果然英雄所見略同,一起在這邊享用可口的香腸。

  吃完香腸,乘著細雨,一路滑回軍功路口,路口的包子饅頭店又冒出令人垂涎的陣陣熱氣,剛好補給的時間也到了,本來想買的芋頭包沒了,只得買一個包子($13)跟最愛的葡萄饅頭($10),也都蠻好吃的,以後又可以當作新的補給點了。

  晚上又到樂華夜市吃了有名的蚵仔煎($45),那個味道跟小時候的記憶一模一樣,好吃,好像好幾年沒吃到蚵仔煎了。巷子裡怪異的無雙涮牛肉湯剛開店準備營業,不過已經點了蚵仔煎了,只好下次再說了。吃完往後繼續逛,又有人買了甩餅來嘗鮮,看起來似乎不錯,不過保留實力,只好下次再說了。

  這天最爽的,莫過於遇到那場山嵐雨霧,騎得舒服,聽說本周N再騎一次,因為大太陽,還得熱到在涼亭休息呢。還有,還有,墨魚香腸,千萬不要錯過了。

五指山四線連走

今天下大湖街,果然口味太淡,下到大湖山莊好像才10點半,有股淡淡的不滿足,所以跑去mj推薦,好樂適附近的巷內吃重口味的羊肉麵,湯肉俱佳,半筋半肉配上清燉或是紅燒湯,配上細拉麵麵條,沒有騷味的清淡湯頭,遠在巷口就可以聞到,相當推薦。下五指山,除了披薩,又多了一樣選擇。

不過這樣騎其實在不過癮,加上實在不喜歡下大湖街(太陡),下次還是再加上汐萬路,從汐止繞回來好了,或者是五指山四線連走應該也不錯。

好了,來說說五指山四線連走規劃,從大湖街開始,沿長青路上五指山,下萬坎路到萬里,接台2是5台1台5經基隆七堵到汐止,然後爬汐萬上到五指山,下萬溪產業道路,不要下到至善路,接萬溪右線接碧山路到內湖,接成功路,南京東路就可以到羊肉麵,粗估大約100kM。

錯過的風景

錯過的風景

  可還記得第一次上平溪停了幾次?一共有幾個彎道?有幾條可愛的黑狗?路邊的小販有開嗎?數目櫛次鱗比的樣子是否有印象,山坳裡面飄過的白雲能看到幾次?除了汐平,路上還有別條可以到汐止的路走過嗎? 姑娘廟的廁所長什麼樣?有賣什麼補給品?

  在某次跟車隊上莫內咖啡的時候,等到我停下來的時候已經是莫內了,突然回憶起第一次走106的時候停了三四次,公車亭的等待,可以順便欣賞山上豢養的健壯黑犬,隧道前的猛喘,剛好能夠回首蜿蜒上山的辛苦與快樂,如果,當初以為平溪要多練習才能爬的上去,等到體力練好再來上山,那上面的風景就全都錯過了。

  如果當初體力練的太好,連平溪老街都錯過了,那永遠也不會吃到那朝思暮想的芋圓,那個比九份還好吃,人少免排隊,還有可以坐下來休息的地方,現在平溪芋圓早就是我上平溪的動力了。

  速度太快,容易錯過風景,依序漸進的進步,不但可以欣賞到沿路的風景,也可以往前看到更廣的世界,其實,是可以吃到更多不同種類的東西啦。 :P

下陽明山後的另類選擇

每次下到至善路,都只能跑去中影吃漢堡王,或是至善路口的開封包子,這次從騎完巴啦卡,多騎了中湖戰備道,從冷水坑、平等里下到至善路後,看著漢堡王,實在沒什麼胃口,我比較喜歡求新求變,一樣的東西很難滿足啊。


看著大家都跑去點漢堡餐,心裡卻沒啥動力,突然 Mj 有了去 COSTCO 的主意,二話不說,衝吧,多衝個十分鐘,可以有熱騰騰的 PIZZA 還是很吸引人的。

costco pizza 下陽明山後吃飯的豪爽選擇
大 pizza 只要 300,熱狗加渴熱無限 50,牛肉捲 69,這樣就吃不玩囉。



85500011
拋棄 burgerking 投奔costco pizza 果然是正確的。

巴拉卡迎春

巴拉巴拉卡這條縣101 接縣101甲的山路,是眾多車友眼中的好路線,唯一的缺點,入口太遠了,從我家到101入口的7-11約一個半小時,從自行車道紅樹林站前幾十公尺,右側有個涵洞出去,然後轉上登輝大道,三個上下坡之後可看到 7-11,在 7-11 一定記得要補給水跟食物,雖然二子坪停車場現在有小賣店了,不過爬了十幾公里的上坡,弄點麵包犒賞自己是應該的啦。

轉進 101,一路往北新庄,遇到警察局的三岔路往右,往左是北海岸的三芝,那邊有家三芝小豬有好吃的土司麵包喔。三岔路右上開始是縣101甲,目標是指標 10KM處的二子坪停車場,猶記得上次第一次上巴拉卡是騎不能鎖死的雙避震Gaap,一整個 Orz ,一路抽筋,這次終於用 Speedpro 雪恥了。 從7-11出發大約是八點半,到二子坪是十點,還遇到功率剩下 50% 的縮拉一起喇賽。 XD

今天天氣難得的好,氣溫也稍微回升,不過因為我已經感冒上身,不敢輕忽,上用毛帽覆頂蓋耳,脖子用魔術頭巾保護鼻子跟臉頰,這樣的效果還不錯,以後都可以這樣保暖。上週因為保暖不夠,才騎河濱到新店,雙頰就凍傷了>_< 所以這一次,死都要包好。

在二子坪吃了一包energy-in,還有一個小7買的派司麵包後,繼續上路,往前滑下遇陽金左轉,到這段還想起去年p自坡的慘烈,過小油坑下坡後的髮夾彎,彎上右側,急陡坡!!! 這就是中湖戰備道,請記得迅速變到最輕檔。從二子坪後的兩膝蓋內側凹陷處的抽筋還沒好,就來這超陡坡,真是不要膝蓋了,一度很想下來牽車,二度很想下來牽車,三度很想下來牽車,只是看到陽光閃耀的坡頂,想著再一下就到了,然後硬撐著,不知不覺就到了,幫 No5 照了一張紀念照後下坡滑到冷水坑遊客服務站,才發現膝蓋內側那種抽筋的感覺消失了,這是越用越好嗎? XD

之後一路延菁山路、平等里滑下去吃午飯,一路上櫻花滿山綻放,騎車的季節就是該從櫻花開始啊。去年也是這樣,從櫻花開始,到秋天的金針花結束,梅花的季節,則是在家養肥補眠。 :P

**** 下面算食記 ****

每次的據點都是漢堡王,好吃是好吃,不過吃久總是會膩,於是 Mj 提議到 COSTCO 吃比臉大披薩跟肉汁橫溢牛肉捲,於是穿過自強隧道,左轉內湖路轉瑞光路,穿過內湖科學園區,多走一點路到 COSTCO。車子可以停外面,有一長排座位,還有七八張固定式的桌子,有人在外顧車,有人進去買,沒卡沒關係,從[出口]繞進去,或是說要買披薩就好。大披薩一個300,松子青醬推薦,熱狗50附飲料無限暢飲,牛肉捲70,披薩真的很大,三個人嗑不完,只能攤在座位上休息。

今天,有好天氣好太陽好路線,最後來個好午餐,心滿胃足的滑個一小時回中和,到家已經是下午三點了,滿足。

台北聯外橋樑人行道將開放自行車通行

  為了考量自行車族的權益,並提高台北縣、市連絡橋樑人行道的整體使用效率,台北市多座與台北縣的連絡橋樑,將開放人行道通行自行車,而為使自行車能共用聯外橋樑人行道,台北市水利處整平人行道路面、加高橋樑的護欄,讓自行車族可平穩騎乘其中,並避免跌落橋下。目前北市水利處已完成4座橋樑的自行車牽引道工程,包括新店溪沿線的永福橋華中橋福和橋以及淡水河沿線的台北橋牽引道等,若履勘順利,農曆年前自行車族可望通行於此4座橋樑上;未來還規劃增加華江橋光復橋的自行車引道,讓民眾可以騎自行車到處趴趴走!

from: 輪彥 單車誌電子報 第128期



  希望這些自行車引道能做的體貼一點,不要弄個天橋就了事。像洲美橋自行車引道社子端就是一個非常不好的示範,我在那邊不知道他多少人牽車上去了,陡俏的天橋,在旁邊鋪上水泥,就說他是自行車引道,乾脆去學催眠術比較快。比較好的坡度示範應該是大直橋新弄好的自行車引道,坡度剛剛好,適合牽上去或是騎上去。但是,天橋上面鋪的東西就很差了,一堆坑坑洞洞,或是金屬面的裝飾,下大雨的時候,就很容易滑倒。

  光復橋北側目前有天橋可牽下去,算是台北縣往北的重要通路,只是常常覺得要繞華江橋下那一大圈很煩,我通常直接騎經西園路過龍山寺才轉進自行車道。

加裝行李架,不用再驗貨物稅完(免)稅證明

  因應日漸盛行的休旅風氣,許多小客車及小客貨兩用車常加裝固定式置物架,以放置自行車等休閒娛樂器材,由於其加裝價格多數低於貨物稅起徵點,為簡化稽徵作業及汽車變更登記程序,財政部決定放寬規定,同意監理機關於受理小客車及小客貨兩用車加裝固定式置物架的變更登記時,免再查驗貨物稅完(免)稅證明,以免增加徵納雙方困擾。

加裝行李架,不用再驗貨物稅完(免)稅證明

   為避免廠商先以低價車身裝配繳稅進口或出廠後,再行改裝車身或加裝設備,以歸避賦稅,財政部早於1993年便已發佈規定,已稅車輛或底盤改(加)裝車身或 加裝設備價格(包括設備及裝置價格)超過7千元以上,應補交貨物稅;為反應物價水準,財政部將課稅起徵點調高為1萬元,自2007年3月1日起,車主進行 車輛改裝,包括裝置自行車置架等費用,只要不超過1萬元,就不用再補稅

迫降莫內團

這是我第一次進去莫內喝咖啡耶,上次進去的時候,大隊已經走了 :Orz

真是有夠冷雞雞,從動物園跟到石碇的時候,跟的很勉強,就知道大概飛不起來了,只好緊急迫降到莫內咖啡,從石碇上平溪滿肚子冷空氣弄得非常不舒服,好險也終於熬到莫內咖啡拉肚子。
迫降到莫內吃吃喝喝拉拉賽賽,果然是正確的抉擇啊。

冬天還是要注意保暖,邊騎邊流鼻水真痛苦。
