Lemme, guess, someone's chromosome came unraveled and called you to glue it back together? Almost the same thing happened to me! Stripped stem bolt came undone but I didn't have any glue...

Turned out to be a tale told by an idiot, if you catch my meaning.... Still, I didn't wear the brown shorts....

@bikingshearer - Yes. We're on for Saturday. I'll be there. I'm thinking it will be a Colnago day, but I may pick something else.

I'll be there. Not sure what I'll be on. I'm thinking the Ironman, but I may change my mind at the last moment.

Another great ride! Even though it was 94 by the end of the ride (and the hottest on the two slogs up Sand Hill - before 280 and after 280) there were some cooler segments, some shady spots to stop, and sometimes even a pleasant breeze!
Anyone take pictures?
See y'all next month!

Hey Ryanl092. The water bottle cage is a King Iris cage and the mount is something I got on Amazon--search for "handlebar water bottle mount".

Wow! It's November already. I was hoping that I would have one the the 1940's British bikes that are multiplying in my garage ready, but I'm not even close (Damn 1" head clips). Since I'm focusing on British bikes right now, I'm thinking it might by Bob Jackson's turn to see the road...
