BTW, will be 71yo in 4 months from today and I just purchased a used DAY6 Journey >>>

https://day6bikes.com/journey/ ONLY with 7 speed and rim brakes like white one pictured

Woke up on Monday, got out of bed, put lights on the bike and went for a ride in my PJ's. At 5:35AM I saw a FIREBALL and reported the sighting when I got back home. It was reported being seen by 41 other people with 2 good videos and the "SIGHTING" was verified. >>>
