Bike Forums - Addiction 2022.1

After the first night back in the hammock, I still have left leg issues. Can't expect an overnight cure. I am the only one who believes it will occur. It's amazing(possibly to me only) that the doctors of the world think they see all know all. The patient is simply a dumb potato to them.

Looks like we could get a real winter storm this weekend.

With a chain prep for wax, I’ve read all of the steps and have a question for you. Have you ever used a citrus degreaser instead of mineral spirits? What about the last step with a solvent like acetone? My preference is not to use harsh chemicals I can’t dispose of.

You could use the same jar of mineral spirits several times. Just let the crap settle out, and pour into a clean jar. Allow the residue to dry, clean the old jar, and use it as the NEXT 'clean jar'.

Maybe. I say my limit is 20F, but 19 is close enough for me to stretch it a degree.

The dreams are, at best, wearisome. And the phase where I realize that what I've been experiencing (mostly from the past) isn't real life now is always disconcerting.
