Posterous dies on 4/30/2013 so I've moved all my content and switched to Blogger.

Inspecting River Carnage on the Fixie

Short little test ride on the new Stoopid Rear Wheel #3.  Uneventful...except for the thwarting of web forum naysayers.  As much as I've searched it on Google, I've never read a forum that said, "Go ahead!  It's totally safe and cool mixing hub and rim spoke counts." On the contrary, all that I've read warns you not to even try it.   Bah humbug!  Of course you can lace hubs and rims that have different spoke counts.  You just need different length spokes, patience, and faith in your stoopid idea;-)


Anyway...



LHR>Levering>Jogging Jelly sighting near purple playground at Avalon Orange Grove (he was talking about Cleveland going to the Superbowl so I sped away toward...)>Lost Lake (the river that Mike photographed this AM was still flowing, but not as deep)>Gristmill (lots of debris and more than a few sections where the streams are running down the paved path...COOL!  Also spotted a MTBer coming out of Vineyard tunnel...APPARENTLY, SOMEONE'S TRAIL CONDITIONS CONTINUUM IS MORE LIBERAL THAN MINE;-P)>BonneBranch (rode past CdW but all the lights were out and Barry White was playing, so I kept going;-) )>103>Monty>home
