Uniglide? I've modified modern 'Hyperglide' cassettes to run on an old 600 hub and it was super easy. I miss that hub, it was virtually silent when coasting. A ~4 hour period spent riding in the rain ruined the driveside bearing races though 
Speaking of, how do you like the Tempo?

No problem with coffee because I drink it strong. We usually ate supper with a couple other couples and I’d make everyone order after-dinner espresso whether they wanted it or not and drink all of the extras.

You are an animal. At this time in my life, the idea of anything longer than 4 hrs is not a pleasant one. With the return of sailing and starting to do TTs again, I am backing down on the volume and trying to concentrate on quality and polarization, or at least that's what I'm telling myself.

I rode today with one clubmate. She has an S Works Tarmac with Red ETap and disc brakes, deep crabon wheels. It’s a gorgeous bike but prolly costs 5-6K. I would not mind riding one, but mucho dinero.

My ride today was at a pretty decent pace for the time/distance (and the wind we've been having didn't help), and I'm feeling a little wiped. Time to recover.

If I was mowing on the tractor today, I might need my sweatshirt again. 
Anyway, this is kind of interesting.

I use a Stihl. Most of the time it's pretty good, but there have been times where it didn't want to re-start after I turned it off for a few minutes.
