At the #KWLUG meeting. Turns out it's our 25th anniversary! There is cake!
Here's the panel of the founders: Adam, Bill, John, Cedric, and online Greg, and Marko.
Edit: Should have mentioned @kwlug@thecanadian.social
Also, that's only half the attendees; the others are safely behind me. And at as many online.

We want the (good) funk...gotta have that funk
Swiss cheese, olives, salami, vanilla, beer, chocolate, yoghurt, coffee....all delicious and all possible because of fermentation.
If you're into getting fizzy with it, this week's food column is about fermented foods and how to get into ferments at home!

#BikeNite A1: I'm back in #WaterlooRegion for a change. The big non-cycling happening is "driving".
I've needed to go to Burlington/Oakville about once a week for the last few months, and I'm so fed up with driving.
The trip is about 100km; I used to drive more than that to work every day. I don't know how I used to manage it.

One month to the close of nominations for the municipal elections. I don't know what bothers me most:
-Incumbents who have not yet declared if they're running or not;
-All the ridings with no candidates;
-All the ridings with only the incumbent;
-Candidates who registered on 1 May whose websites still say "Coming Soon!";
-Incumbents with no online presence;
-Incumbents with websites not updated since 2022…

We're super lucky to be surrounded by productive, fertile land, and that local chefs and farmers forge relationships. But there are a handful of local restaurants for whom farm to table means growing some of the ingredients they cook with.

This weekend it’s the Ribfest & Craft Beer show at Victoria Park in Kitchener. Did you know that the City of Kitchener is running their Bikecheck valet service? You can park your bike there, knowing that it will be safe and supervised the whole time.
Even better, our free @CyclingGuide@cosocial.ca mobile app can route you directly to the Bikecheck facility! 😀🍻🚴🏼♀️❤️

It's pick-your-own season. With lots of farms letting you harvest your own fresh produce, I spoke with ABSOLUTELY LOVELY farmers about their patches and the Ps&Qs of PYO (hint: there should be more in your basket than in your belly)

Lots of updates to #WaterlooRegion's municipal candidate info!

It's just over two months into the campaign with less than two months to the close of candidate registrations (21 August). I'm a bit alarmed at how many positions still have no candidates, and the many incumbents who have not declared whether they're running, not running, or still thinking it over. It's a big disservice to others who might consider running if they knew the incumbent isn't.

#BikeNite A1: Posting from #Burlington, Ontario right now. Probably won't be able to answer more than this question before I have to head bsck to #WaterlooRegion.
Track stand? I can't even ride no-hands! And there was the time I fell over with the bike just trying to dismount. That was the time when I decided I was old.
