wow, looks like a niner

but it's not.

ok, coulda used some fenders...

started misting when i got to the end of my driveway, this morning. while it might have been nice to have fenders and raingear, i needed the easy spin on my 32x16.

not enough people saw this view of my bike, today... oh well, i had a hoot. not bad for an old man who didn't train.

hard to lube a freewheel's innards (and know you really got it). get the wheel spinning, turn the crank backwards, spray lube, and hope. sadly, the free wheel sounds worse immediately following this treatment, but it gets better.
