Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I'm considering asking Mrs. Doug28450 if she wants to go for a bike ride on a MUP that we have never ridden before on Saturday morning.

I replaced BB30 bearings at the bike shop the other day. It was less than $100.

To avoid it you need some Loctite stored on the same shelf.
