So, perfect riding weather today when I got off work...65 degrees, sunny, crisp! With anticipation I geared up and rushed out to the parking garage. I was finally out of there!

Free!

Crud.

Flat tire. No stuff to fix it. (Bags are not on the bike right now).

Had to take the train home.

Oh . . . Joy . . . .

Had the seat all to myself though....what with the full leather, motorcycle helmet, and my making "Vroom, Vroom!" noises while twisting imaginary throttles on invisible handlebars.

Sigh.

Had to put a new rear tire on the Valk...

Oops, sorry...had to "renew the tyre" (it's an Avon don't-cha-know).

Had 4 (four!) nails in the other one. Stranded it in the parking garage d/t.

Blech.

Let's see . . . gotta break it in . . . scrub off the mold or somesuch nonsense...

Balmy and 73 degrees out there....hmmmmm...

50 miles?

100?

200?

Do I hear 500?

Sold!

:D

Lots'a construction going on, on our building right now. Also drive through that darn "high 5" construction every day...

Don't know. Annoying.

they were building a new condo building right across the alley. went to get it fixed, when they said 5 nails- I said replace- I am having the same slow leak on the front, I have the new front tire leaning against the end of my bed. The construction is done, I will replace the front when I can walk the alley and not find any nails.
