 Here’s a snapshot from this morning’s ride. Can’t resist stopping at 
 the CalTech campus because of the variety in architecture. 

 New Leo is fully dialed in. Such a joy to ride.

 Well, I guess I'm back up for starting the thread.

 We haven't had much winter weather here, meaning no real snow, yet. 
 A couple of days ago we had a beautiful, sunny day, temps around 40, 
 and 
 (for us) not a lot of wind. I took advantage and did the 
 round-the-city-mostly-bike-paths loop. This is on the Hank Aaron 
 trail. 
 American Family Field isn't seeing much use these days, but it's just 
 a 
 handful of weeks before pitchers and catchers report down south.
 [image: IMG_1825.jpeg]

 A bit more blustery and a bit of sleet yesterday, but I managed to 
 sneak in a bit of a ride. Today pal Kurt and I did a 100km effort. 
 Forecast 
 was for temps around 30 and some sunshine. You can see how that turned 
 out. 
 I'll take 100km on 1/1, though! Kurt's riding his Gunnar Sport. I bet 
 that 
 bike has over 30,000 kms on it, including an epic 200km on a bitter 
 cold 
 January 31st, to get him an R-12 just under the wire.

+1 on that Paul. Jock puts 'em together right!

Jock Dewey, That bike is a vision of the perfectly proportioned bicycle in 
my opinion. Uncluttered, though there is a place for utilitarian racks, 
bags, etc. on bikes for other uses than the pure joy of riding. A lot of 
thought went into it, obviously, from the quietly understated color to the 
wheels, fenders, even the Acorn bag!  (Great backdrop too! How about a 
"Dewey bikes" calendar in 2025?)
