I've been missing my rides as my bikes didn't get back from vacation until a week after I did due to me leaving my car out there and flying back. I did bike commute on my old Nishiki a couple of times but it's not the same as riding my nicer bikes. That dang old Nishiki doesn't even have braze ons for water bottles. It's Camelback or nothing. Usually I choose nothing because I'm not going far. It's got me thinking of converting my 90s MTB to 650B so I can at least take along my water bottles.
It was a bit nerve wracking to know my bikes were in the care of others but anyway, they made it home safe and sound on Saturday evening.n Unfortunately had plans all day on Sunday so was not able to ride. :( On Sun, Aug 24, 2014 at 7:25 AM, Michael Hechmer <mhech...@gmail.com> wrote: > As I wrote the subject line of this post it occurred to me that this list > includes folks who are into rondenee riding and certainly don't need to be > encouraged to ride more, and may even be happier riding less, but this is a > post about riding more... often. > > Here in Vt. we have just emerged from an extensive period of cool, rainy, > funky weather (sorry to have to share that with Ca., & you in the SW) and I > haven't been riding much.
