James, depending on how grandiose of a photo project you're looking for, do something like a project 365, 52, or 12 on IG. I did a 366 back in 2016-17 (didn't start on Jan 1) and found it was great to get me to look at everything with a different eye. Always looking for the picture that tells a story or will bring joy.
Regarding the Peloton, if you already have a bike that fits you, perhaps look into a good indoor trainer. Lots of them have power measurements now and either Garmin or Wahoo can get any bike connected for cadence (or even power with Garmin). Use Zwift to gamify the workout. When I used to ride, a lot, I would look at indoor workouts like putting money into the bank, that I could withdraw later. I feel the same now about running, outdoors, on the road. It's not the most enjoyable, but it's putting money into the bank that I can withdraw later, doing stuff I enjoy...
Keep up the good work guys!
I've been eyeing the CWC pocket watch for a while. Just for something different. Might have to make it happen this year.
