Bicycles

I've been working on a bicycle all morning.  It got a new chain, cogs, cables, housing, tires, and brake pads.  The canti brakes, wheels, derailleurs, and crankset were all sprung/bent/slap wore out.  So were the forks.  I have decided that I really do not like working on old bikes.  There was a time, but it has past.

I suffered on a ride last night, up Rick's and down Steel.  Did I say that I suffered?  It was the first real hard/steep mountain bike ride up the canyon this year.  And it's already the middle of August.  Cross season will not go well if I don't start riding more than once per week.
