How about having a bike archive so rather than deleting a bike because you sold it or junked it, the bike write up and all it’s pix go to some sort of referenceable archive?

Sold my Fixation this evening. It was a fair deal and I unloaded some stuff on the new owner to sweeten the deal, too. I am glad it’s going to a good owner that will ride her hard like she deserves.

I am now down to 5 working bikes at the moment. It would have been four but after selling the Raleigh I bought a 700c comfort bike with a little squish from Marin that came with a B66 saddle for $105. It has an ancient Shimano Nexus hub that is kaput so it’s my next fixed gear project.

Now, what to get next? I am thinking another 29er after I sell one more bike.

I was passing through East Hampton the other day on my way back from Storrs when I think I saw Eric’s missing pump. Guess it wasn’t working for you if you threw it on the side of the road.

Tried a pair of the Ergon GP1 grips on ‘Goose and rode some rail trail yesterday with my two sons. I couldn’t believe how comfortable they were. Having that extra surface area for my palm to rest on was so comfortable was so nice. I have a pair of Serass ergo grips on my winter commuter and I am planning on putting a pair of the GP2s on the Qball. I think I will need a pair for my ’Horse now, too.
