Re: [RBW] Of Bikes and Bread

Sourdough pancake recipe attached. The pancakes are on the thin side and far tastier than the norm, and making them includes feeding the starter. My wife is a sourdough nut--crust, crumb, size of the holes, whole wheat...always experimenting and rarely completely satisfied. It's all great

Good research and decisiveness, Reid. Looks like you acquired a Toyo (or Waterford?) Hilsen for less than Cross Check money. The photos aren't well shot, but the frame and paint look nice. Seat tube decal might be slightly marred if I'm seeing that properly, but that will save you the trouble

Gah, Philip, we’d be 400 pounds and diabetic if we did that. I do not know how the settlers brought their starter along, but I know they slept with it at night to keep it warm. There’s a guy somewhere in the PNW who died many years ago, but his starter lives on. He used to have a mail-order

That’s awesome! Shame the school can’t provide a vegetarian cheese sandwich or something on Hamburger Day. How often do you bake bread? It looks from the recipe like the starter rhythm could work without discarding any if you baked twice a day? Or no? I’m not suggesting we SHOULD, just

[RBW] Re: Narrow-wide 1x chain ring question

If silver is a priority a basic (not narrow wide) non-pinned and ramped ring will likely work just fine. If you end up dropping chains frequently adding a chainkeeper would help keep it on. Clayton Scott HBG, CA On Wednesday, January 1, 2020 at 5:54:56 AM UTC-8, tc wrote: > > I'm

I wondered what you've been up to! I've tried a couple times to get my "starter" started using recipes off you tube and failed miserably will try again in a month or two. I was trying to figure out what the difference between a sourdough started and yeast for pizza dough!? I'll try your recipe

[RBW] Re: Narrow-wide 1x chain ring question

IME oven cleaner was not strong enough to remove the black finish from a Raceface chainring, so someone recommended lye, which is serious stuff. I never ended up buying/using lye, but it's probably a strong bet to remove a finish from an anodized part. Also IME most or all narrow wide

It’s the Goldilocks dilemma, Mark :) I could set up most of them to be most things, but I like bikes set up for specific things. If Homer is fast enough, it’ll be a drop bar quick bike that fits me a bit better than the Ram. If not, and it clears my preferred tire, it’ll take the Sam’s

Hi Mark, We will indeed, if it ends up being too large. I had the seller send me a photo, though, and it looks like he was measuring to the lug point for the 67cm number. Center to center is spot on at 65, to my eyes. At the price I offered, I figured it was worth the risk, so we shall see

Re: [RBW] 69 cm A Homer Hilsen for $1100 on eBay (not mine)

I see the seller changed the title description from 69cm to 67cm. Did you ask him to measure it again Reid? I think you're safe with it being a 65cm, it just didn't look that big to me but that could be do to the bad camera angles. If ends up being a 67cm, let's talk. -- You received this
