Rode 10 miles with my son (on roads), finished the complete breakdown of my M80 and am looking at a pile of parts that will magically come back together with a singulator, Mr. Whirly crankset and some other goodness to make a 1999 Raleigh M80 1x1 on Synrgy carbon-fiber spoked hubs. Should be sub 20 lbs.

Also swapped out the POS Jett that was on it with a friends Judy T2 Long travel so I can use my BB7 on the front. I cried a little when I saw a nice used set of Mavic ceramics on sale for $70 and realized I missed being able to buy them from the guy locally by less than 5 minutes.

Am taking a professor (and friend) of mine on a 15 mile ride tomorrow to show him how to get to the uni via bike. So that's 3 people I've converted from 100 percent car dependent into somewhat responsible bike commuters - this year.
