Holy heck, Joe, it’s true about helping me out of mechanical messes. That has also been a group effort here on this List. You guys are all wonderful and I ought to give you half my kingdom. I’m pretty sure there was a collective sigh of relief when I finally put the last piece of my Clem L in place.
I’m back to Just Riding now, and aiming to get back the feeling like my new bike is an extension of me. I haven’t taken to this bike as quickly as the Clementine or the Betty; I think it’s a little long. Hoping I get to where I won’t notice, soon. I had to order a new long wheelbase bar for my bike rack, since the Clem is over 48 inches 🙄. It arrives soon. Keith - how is your Clem coming along? Did you switch racks? Did you sort out the issue? Or are you just living with a floppy front load?
