put some black leather stuff on my dark grey bike all the slush making my front brake squeal and stutter. by the time I got back home the caliper had nearly unscrewed itself from the frame.

It snowed and stayed cold for a week so I ordered a pair of conti top contact winter II's (and one contact spike 120) and as a result all of the snow has disappeared, making sure I never get to play in the snow. The least-great great lake was pretty though.

The other day, someone posted a picture to the local trail riders' group that was simply breathtaking. It was vertical aspect, which is usually strikes 1 and 2, but since it was a bike path going over a little bike path bridge over a creek billowing with fog, which my area has been dealing with for a few days since the deep freeze ended and the humidity and rain melted away the ice. Just a beautiful picture. Now... I'm not as good of a photographer, but I was finally able to ride my bike today because while I don't mind riding in the cold, the last couple of weekends have been the kind of dangerous cold that I'm not equipped for. But, I did get a lot of fun river fog pictures, a barge, some bridges, the usual stuff I get. So, here's the one I didn't share. That's Melvin Price Lock & Dam in the background. This was my first 25 miles this year. Cheapest bike Giant makes, I think.

NBD - did my first ride on this during a 200k. Was really comfortable and I'm happy with 95% of the component choices except for the handlebars. Kind of want to get flared handlebars but the nice thing about these is that they allow for aero bars.

Did some drivetrain upgrades along with the 36cm Wiggle bars before they stopped shipping to the USA. We’ve got AXS front and rear derailleurs, a 12 speed HG cassette, a KMC chain, and 11 speed SRAM rings. None of this is officially compatible but it works great.

I've still got one of them rim brake bikes too. Been meaning to replace it with a new supersix but keep buying other things instead. like last season it was a hardtail xc bike and right now i'm working on a replacement for the major jake. But maybe once the new bike is finished, I sell the jake, and sell my old car, a new road bike will be on the table for this year. Guess I'll keep riding this in the meantime New bike gonna be cool. Just don't have an eta for the frame better than "probably before the end of april" yet.

I am far too lazy to take off the saddle bag, bottle cages, and Assiomas to get the fancy weight, but it's about 16.5lbs. I have some Dura Ace C24s tubs that can go on to really lighten it up but short of doing Mt Washington again racing on tubs is for the birds!!

Last year's project built up from what looked to be a NOS frame with mostly used bike coop components. Already sold as I have too many bikes.
