I've been out of circulation these last few weeks, with highs and lows. Two Sundays back my daughter married the fellow she's been with for some 6 years - definitely a high! The next day I tested positive and spent a week mostly sleeping. I started creeping back into the world last week although I didn't test negative until Thursday. So no riding yet, but wrenching always makes me feel good so I put some bursts of energy into finishing a summer-long project of stripping my Falcon for a repaint (the first and possibly last time I'll do this). I'm in the home stretch, getting down to the last stubborn little bits. Thankfully the fork is full chrome. I've decided to take on the finishing using spray.bike products for priming and painting and a 2K gloss clear coat. Transfers are on the way from Cyclomondo. Pray for me.
