Thank you Eric for the feedback, that is a Swift. I have another one on my 
'82 Sequoia. They are my favorite saddle for my drop bar bikes replacing 
the Selle Anatomica X. The pics were taken with my Velo Orange Camp Snap 
camera (grainy quality is a feature, I suppose).

 What a nice place to live and do your work.  I was reminded, though, of a 
 similar but not quite as professional episode as this one from several 
 years ago where you were doing a rebuild of a mixte that your "partner's" 
 parents gave her - some Japanese manufacturer, I think.  I recognized that 
 the scenes of your shop are the same as your current video, but it's a 
 "different Eric Marth!"  Pop bottle glasses, dark hair, etc.  What

How's the Swift? Or is that a Swallow? I need a brown saddle for my

Thank you Eric for the video! I waited until I had some free time to that I 
could take it in and enjoy it, very entertaining! I really appreciated the

the books. Here's a link to a couple pics of my work shop in our two car

Thanks everyone for watchin'! 

Marty: The Match Game was before my time but I certainly came up with Bob 
Barker. The $20 corded mic I bought just didn't seem right clipped to my 
shirt so I went for the long mic. 

Patrick: I appreciate the kind notes. Sorry about the SW gardening woes, I 
know nothing of gardening in that clime. I've had my own troubles here! I 
was in a different house about 10 years ago and the garden was a lot of 
work but it was abundant and without many difficulties. The soil and sun

I'm finally getting the hang of things. A groundhog just showed up on the

lettuce while sitting in the raised bed earlier this week! It's fenced off 
but they found a way in. I have to admit it was kind of cute, holding a 
huge piece of lettuce, but it still left me cursing. I'm glad you like the

Lovely garden, lovely shed, lovely workshop. Noted the trellises; will keep
in mind to support my trumpet vines.

I recall trying to start a garden -- various hot peppers, tomatoes -- in my
first summer, 2004, at my present house. Xeriscaped -- water is expensive!
-- but dug up sandy soil and fertilized and mulched in SE corner of yard
against typical cinderblock wall. No good; backyard is south, blasted by
violent summer 5K feet altitude summer sun; even covering the ~6'X6' garden
didn't help. This even tho' I'm literally 100' from the cottonwood bosque.
Next year tried big pots on porch; got a few stunted habaneros; gave up.
(OTOH, trumpet vines do just fine backed up against cinderblock walls in
blast-furnace sun, as long as you give them a bit of water 2X per week.)

I envy all y'all's moist, green landscapes -- until I go for a pleasant
ride at 2 pm in July at 102*F at 4% humidity.
