Sad they have to put such a disclaimer up. Nothing tastes better than cold fresh well or spring water IMO. Especially on a hot day!

Still ew. She was making noise about the Caledonia before understanding its tire size issue. She may go for a Topstone; I may get my steelie. We will see.

i love your bike.

I love it too, it fits perfect and rides beautifully.

Nope, but what I mean is there's no band or even hymns at church to perform in public.
And yet big bicycle makes the bicycle worse by added gears that aren't wanted or making them fatter.
A bugle with valves.

Spring/mountain water is good. I filled up at a couple spots back when I was a cyclist who ventured into Blount County.

They have gotten markedly better in the relatively short time I've been a rider (Di2, TT frame design, superior gearing choices, wheel width, power meters). Going back more than that decade brings a whole lot more.

Autumn is in the air.

I wore my long-sleeve summer jersey this morning for sun protection.

Tomorrow will likely be fake miles, based on the forecast.

My hat’s off to you! 3D modeling in autocad gets me frustrated. And I say this as a person that started with AutoCAD R14 (if anyone remembers that far back :50:).

Eeeeeeeeeeek :twitchy:

PS: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEK! (i just saw the photo too).

We bought raspberries at the farmers market today.

Fancy

Eat at your own peril.

That Adamo saddle tho...

And a triple berry pie.

...is a great saddle, but the saddle and bars are intended for diametrically-opposed riding positions.

We're getting hurricanes now that usually hit in September.

I think my Gunnar might be considered modern steel. It's True Temper OX Platinum, tig wleded with sloping top tube. It's about 4 pounds in size 62. I have a Kestrel fork on it because that's what they had lying around. I haven't ridden it much since I got the Seven in 2012 but I took it today to the old club and did 60+ miles with 4200 feet of climbing. It's way more comfortable than the Seven but harder for me to climb with, partly because it's 21 pounds without pedals.

I'd post pics but Photobucket is holding my pictures hostage. It was free when I signed up, wtf?

I've heard you can't reliably patch a latex tube. I've tried the peel and stick patches on butyl tubes and had one blow off on a descent when the wheel got hot, had another blow off while the bike was in the car and I was driving on a hot day.

:twitchy: It's obviously a prized bike converted to a townie by a now older and less flexible rider, but :twitchy:. That's a odd placement for the cable holder for the alfine shifter and it must be odd having your hands that far behind the front axle. It now probably has more wheel flop than a recumbent with tiller steering. Still if it means that someone can keep riding then overall it's good.

You all must be getting bored. And it's not even winter yet. I go away for a hike and come back to find more than ten pages added. I can't keep up on a bike, and now I'm struggling to keep up here.

Google search took me to WeightWeenies forum (shocking, right?) and multiple posters there say that usual butyl patches CAN work on latex tubes. So I suppose I can try if/when I get a flat. Assuming, of course, I overcome my lazy mechanic tendencies and actually put my summer wheels on the bike.

Time to ride.

Try to.
