I haven't ridden my bike in the dirt since the day after thanksgiving!!! I've had an incredible streak of bad timing and missed opportunities. Every time I have commitments I can't get out of, it is GORGEOUS outside. And it's crappy when I can, of course. It has rained the last 3 weekends in a row! WTF? And, the one day that I could've gotten out there, my bike was in pieces (recall the "Sunday, I did not ride, I rebuilt her" thread...).

Oh well, my bike is in the best condition that it has been in, in a long time. And once I fix that damn freehub of mine (THURSDAY), she'll be as good as the day I floated my rent check to bring her home... . (Thanks to Pokey and Hunter for the much needed info.).

So, I have been reading all these threads in veign, knowing that I haven't been on the bike, so I just don't respond much...

(It has been a lot slower on here though... fair weather riders )
