Faculties are closed for Midwinter Recess and meaning this weblog is simply too. Nonetheless, since 2024 is The Yr Of Paring Down, I’m profiting from the downtime to stock and assess my velocipedal holdings as they at present stand. So between Monday and Friday I’ll make a radical accounting of all my bicycles, not together with those belonging to different members of my speedy household, or elements and frames stuffed deep in a storage unit, which is to say it gained’t be very thorough in any respect. However, it is going to be a kind of full image of all fully-assembled bicycles at present owned, operated, and often ridden by me. It will enable me to find out whether or not or not I must proceed divesting or buying because the case could also be, and is totally for my very own edification. So when you’re welcome to learn and remark don’t count on to be entertained, although actually you shouldn’t expect that anyway.
See you again right here Monday, February twenty sixth.
I Love You,

Miscellaneous notes: I beloved this bike from the start, however including an enormous ring and drop bars (and fenders) actually unlocked its full potential. It’s not a street race bike and it’s not a mountain bike, nevertheless it’s good or nice for just about every little thing else, and since 2020 it’s probably my most-ridden bike. If I may save just one bike from a fireplace, earthquake, nuclear assault, or Black Friday stampede it would probably be this one. As a bonus it’s eminently reconfigurable and could be made kind of road-y, trail-y, commuter-y, and many others. as want be, and it’s appropriate with most of my spare elements, except the 650b wheels, although today after all tires are extensively out there in that measurement.
