maich bicycle

Autumn is nearing in Hania. The weather has definitely cooled down, although there could be anotehr heatwave coming at any time in the near future.

This bicycle hasn't been used in a while. It's probably been left here (at MAICh, a graduate school for agriculture students in Hania) by a former student, to be used by a new student next year. All the leaves will start going red soon, which will show up the autumn flavour of the season really well.

  1. Ha, funny bike. Lucky you, getting cooler.
    I think our thermometer got stuck at 31 for the entire summer. But today I bought a bag of milk and it was stamped September 3, YAY! August will really end.

  4. Cycling is supposed to be friendly to the environment, so I suppose the colour fits.

  6. Great! I photographed a bike a while back festooned with plastic roses but a real plant growing through a bike is wayyyyy better. All your photos are so lovely. I am hoping to visit Chania to stay at the monastery at Chrysopigi and your blog makes me even more determined.
