As we make our way out of the winter, I know every one is getting excited

I just checked my Rivendell account information on the web site - the 55 cm

the Betty last spring was because I had knee surgery last May and
Luckily was able to swap the bars and levers on my SimpleOne indoors over

levers even.
In the garage during summer it's basically feel. Eyeball it then hop on

Took yesterday off work in part to get out on the SimpleOne. Was only the

much. Rode over to Jim Thil's shop where he surprised me with a cool tool
