Just moved from California to Sequim Washington, and there is alot of riding going on here. I have 2 bikes, both mountain bikes. I have an old Diamond Back Ascent and a 2009 Hardrock. I am currently converting the Diamondback to a commuter bike. My wonderful wife just bought me new tires, lights, and rack for Christmas to start the project. Any advice would be welcome. Will post some pictures soon.
