Faculties are closed for Midwinter Recess and which means this weblog is simply too. Nevertheless, since 2024 is The Yr Of Paring Down, I’m making the most of the downtime to stock and assess my velocipedal holdings as they presently stand. So between Monday and Friday I’ll make an intensive accounting of all my bicycles, not together with those belonging to different members of my instant household, or elements and frames stuffed deep in a storage unit, which is to say it received’t be very thorough in any respect. However, it is going to be a kind of full image of all fully-assembled bicycles presently owned, operated, and commonly ridden by me. This can permit me to find out whether or not or not I have to proceed divesting or buying because the case could also be, and is solely for my very own edification. So whilst 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,

Milwaukee
Use: Street rides, mixed-terrain rides
Garments: Bikey
Miscellaneous notes: If I might solely have one street bike, this could be it; it’s a pure street bike, but because of the medium attain brakes it suits fatter tires and/or fenders for added versatility. Happily, I can have a couple of street bike, which implies I can maintain this in what I’ll name “gravel mode” (bites tongue), with dual-sided pedals and wide-ish, treaded tires, which is how I’ve been driving it these days. Simply because the Jones empowered me to chop my different mountain bikes unfastened, the Milwaukee is why I knew I might let the Litespeed go, because it’s each bit the street bike the Litespeed is, however with extra tire clearance that by no means comes on the expense of “efficiency” (bites tongue).
