I took my Clunker for a ride today.



Then I rode the bike. ;-) This was my second ride. I rode the first section of the Tualatin Valley Scenic Bikeway from Rood Bridge Park to Fernhill Wetlands, then took a slightly different route back, about 24 miles in total, brining me up to 60 kilometers.

I forgot that there were some adjustments I wanted to make after the last ride. The only thing I did was re-inflate the tires and ride, so I had to deal again with the slightly out-of-adjustment bottom bracket, slipping gears, too far forward saddle, and as you may notice in the pictures gradually increasing saddle tilt, not to mention still no kickstand. :-O



This old building is one of my favorite sights along the TV Bikeway, and a fitting backdrop for this bike.


Oak Knolls Winery and Tasting Room.

A lot of farm land on this route


Put a bird on it!


Wetlands


I overcorrected the saddle tilt.


'Merica!


Sun power!

I'm hoping I remember to make the mechanical adjustments before my next ride, but even if I don't this bike is definitely growing on me.
