And that's number 3 of the new new phone holders printed.
This one sits in the front basket of my 27 year old 🚲.
It's a Dutch Batavus with a Yamaha PAS on NiMh battery.
Nearly 3 decades old, and (only) on it's 4th battery since new.
Bike still in use for local shopping, hence the basket.

New phone = new phone holder(s)
Fortunately there's a #BambuLab printer at hand,
so the first one printed was the one to fit on stem of my 🚲
Currently printing another one to fit in the car radio DIN aperture.
PETG-HF, so hopefully better temperature resistant than PLA.

No thank you.

Today, I rode 2 nearly identical routes:
the 1 st one on my old 🚲
the 2nd one on my SerialOne PAS bike
Turns out I burned MORE calories on the e-bike, never expected that result!

That's technically the "best" one can do in this game: all but 1 boxes crossed. (*) I've had higher scores ( due to bonus system), but this result is the most rewarding.
(*) Game stops after 2 colours are out, so by taking out 3 colours in 1 go the maximum possible is 4 colours.

So Microsoft's Copilot is offering me the weather forecast bilingually. I guess I should take it as a compliment. 🧐

After several weeks of unavailability, the Bambu Lab warehouse in the EU has finally got some PLA Basic starter sets back in stock.
So I ordered one, since it is a big saving (€40) over the regular price of 4 spools.

Used Onshape to design a phone holder to fit over the stem of my bicycle handlebars, and a camera mount for the front luggage rack. They have done the job since I've bought the bike 21 months ago and survived for nearly 6000 kms by now.
