This is the 100th post on the Peripatetic Pedaller, after almost 2 years since the
first post. Not too shabby, I guess, for the mostly incoherent peregrinations of a bike nut. To show my appreciation for my loyal readers (both of them) I'm planning to print and give away 2 copies of a wall calendar with my photos of trails in the Klang valley. Well, the photos that don't suck, at any rate. The alarming thing is that I went through my mountainbiking photos of the last 3 years, and can barely fill a calendar with photos-that-don't-suck.
But that's not the real motivation for this post. Introducing, the soon to be announced, Ricoh GXR. In a word, WOW.
See the video here. Lenses will likely be expensive, due to the attached sensor, but this looks like a truly pocketable large-sensor compact camera system. I'll take one 24-70 and the 28mm f1.9 when it comes out, please. Photo from Dmitry.

Congratulations Joe, on your 100th post. Contrary to what you said, your posts are nowhere near incoherent and the mountain biking photos that you took do not suck, period. I think you're just being humble, but that's okay. Having said that, can I also have a copy of the wall calendar (I'm also a loyal reader of this blog, you know).

You are the most loyal reader of this blog, if not the only reader of this blog.
FB me your address and I'll post the calendar to you in about 3 weeks' time.

Joe..
I do not know much about photography's jargon, technique, tricks and tips but your photos are simply awesome!
I like this the most http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3194/2791704625_db3c869a61_o.jpg

Congrats dude!!
On the 100th post! hope it does not make you feel older :P By the way, i think the word 'suck' doesnt apply in your dictionary. It is either veryyyy bad (which is not all the time) or verry gooood (which is most of the time), nothing in between.
If ur calender goes on sale, lemmme know where i can get it, so i can post it on my office wall letting me know, to work as hard as i ride!
Cheers.
Johnny
Me too!!
Joe,
Congrats on having enough steam for a 100th post! I'm going to do the opposite of the rest and tell you ur posts suck! But of course I'd be lying.. NOW can I have a free calender..? Haha
Btw, best post IMHO, is the one with ticks in the scrotum.. nowhere else but here.

When I think of blogs in general, I think "Why would I want to waste my time reading someone's truly banal and boring rambling replete with bad spelling and worse grammar?"
Yours are none of those, and as a result are well worth the time spent reading. I never fail to come away without a laugh or a little new nugget of knowledge. So thank you for taking the time to write them.
