By contrast, Mrs. GeneJockey and I have managed to get through an entire year of my W'ing FH without substantial issues, which is also saying something.

Mrs. rjones28 mostly does herbs in whisky barrels. Many of them are over-wintering in our bay window under a grow light. We also have a blueberry bush. She's thinking of adding strawberries to the mix this year.

The crocus were looking pretty good here, until they got all covered with snow.

Shifting got all sloppy on the Battaglin yesterday. Turns out the rear wheel slipped in the dropout, because the chrome dropout and the chrome Campy QR skewer don't really grip well unless you torque the thing down. I'm considering attacking the bottom of the drive side nut with a file, maybe crosshatch it or something to it grips better. You'd think Campy would have thought of this. Perhaps they didn't account for my massive guads and my ability to throw down a 900 watt sprint.

I think the last bike I had with horizontal dropouts was the Landshark which I sold in 1992, or so.

I gotta wonder how many sprinters pulled their wheels out or alignment back in the day. I mean, if I can do it, imagine what someone with actual power could do?
