Choosing a bicycle? Advice from Jose Rizal: “I do not want a deluxe bicycle; what I like is a sturdy one that can run on sand and on these bad roads, and does not cost more than 100 pesos.”https://opinion.inquirer.net/134225/pandemic-rizal-frontliner-halaman-and-cyclist

As was explained in another video, the route planning was done with Google Maps, and they only used #Maptiler and #OpenStreetMap to visualize the route for the opening segment.

Oh well.

the #PlanTito is getting away with not watering the pets today.

While watching the opening scene of the "Tokyo by Bike" episode of "Life Where I'm From", I noticed a vaguely familiar map of #Japan on the screen: It's #OpenStreetMap! 🎉

While they didn't say if they used OSM to navigate by bike here's a visualization of a similar route on #Brouter using the #CyclOSM layer

Do you know that #Mapillary has committed to not keeping the unblurred imagery you submit to them?

This used to a privacy concern, but I'm glad that they finally addressed it. I'm not sure if #OpenStreetCam , which competes in the same space, has many any categorical statement on the same issue.

Bakit nasa "teen books" section 'to? 😅

Wine pairing: a good red, some cheese, and a good book.

Also, a good way of ending a day after today's house chores. 😅

Do you track new notes made by certain contributors to #OpenStreetMap ? I do, especially those I've found to have contributed useful ones in the past.

Some contributors are keen to add notes (but not edit OSM directly) and so I use : https://my-notes.osm-hr.org to revisit their notes every so often.

Check out the episode, "Maps and other Fictions"
