Picking up litter is good - thank you. Also thanks for asking the question. I think a lot of people may be just home alone and not like Kevin.
Universal healthcare for animals yes. A truly advanced civilisation would find the ownership of an animal by another (a pet) abhorrent. Animals are rational beings and have their own will, therefore we have a moral duty to care for them and not exploit them or keep them captive.
No idea about piracy …, but Kobo is definitely your go-to for any file format.

I understand using generations as an aid to statisticians dividing populations but using generations to generalise behaviour is weaponising age in a way that shouldn’t happen (as a test swap out a generation comment for a body type or your homophobic slang of choice)
It’s a fair question and you don’t say what your bike is so it’s hard to answer, but in general your (relatively modern) bike is tougher than you think and it will be fine. I’d say practise your slow speed and tight turns in a car park - that will help going up. Coming down, use engine and both brakes to slow before the corner - take it easy (especially if it’s damp/cold) and you will enjoy it. And you will be fine. Source: rides in mountains sometimes.

Good call for the early rest day, and kudos for fessing up to the badass photo (although in truth the whole journey and all the photos are actually badass). Nice report. Please write more while you wait for food - it feels like one of my trips and the story is almost as good as being there. Except the beers.
Source ch.ch “Velos und Mofas dürfen an Ampeln bei Rot rechts abbiegen, wenn eine schwarz-gelbe Tafel das ausdrücklich erlaubt.” Das macht Sinn.
