Corwin: tangent, but related: will you please post a photo or photos of
your Hon Solo?

I bought, modified, and rode one for several years back before my daughter
had her license (and took over my car), and when I had to chauffeur her
around. I'd put the HS in the boot of the compact, drive her to her
piano/drawing/skating lesson, and then go take a ride for the hour or so
wait.

I first set the HS up with a (Ritchey, IIRC) bullhorn, then with an
original-edition Moustache bar; neither were comfortable for more than a
few miles, but then I didn't ride the HS more than a few miles.

I geared it at about 70", and I fondly recall Catie's skating lessons at
the top of the long Tramway hill: I'd spin-out the HS downhill about 4
miles to the Sandia Indian casino, then stand and grunt it back up. Or I'd
take it down the adjacent neighborhoods and get my climbing in going up and
down steep residential streets.

But it was never a fully "comfortable" setup and I sold it on once Catie
could drive herself in my car.
