Colleges are closed for Midwinter Recess and which means this weblog is simply too. Nonetheless, since 2024 is The 12 months Of Paring Down, I’m profiting from the downtime to stock and assess my velocipedal holdings as they presently stand. So between Monday and Friday I’ll make a radical accounting of all my bicycles, not together with those belonging to different members of my instant household, or components and frames stuffed deep in a storage unit, which is to say it gained’t be very thorough in any respect. Nonetheless, will probably be a roughly full image of all fully-assembled bicycles presently owned, operated, and usually ridden by me. This can permit me to find out whether or not or not I must proceed divesting or buying because the case could also be, and is fully for my very own edification. So when you’re welcome to learn and remark don’t anticipate to be entertained, although actually you shouldn’t expect that anyway.
See you again right here Monday, February twenty sixth.
I Love You,

Miscellaneous notes: I cherished this bike from the start, however including an enormous ring and drop bars (and fenders) actually unlocked its full potential. It’s not a street race bike and it’s not a mountain bike, nevertheless it’s good or nice for just about every thing else, and since 2020 it’s presumably my most-ridden bike. If I might save just one bike from a hearth, earthquake, nuclear assault, or Black Friday stampede it’d presumably be this one. As a bonus it’s eminently reconfigurable and will be made roughly road-y, trail-y, commuter-y, and many others. as want be, and it’s suitable with most of my spare components, excluding the 650b wheels, although nowadays in fact tires are broadly out there in that dimension.
