With the approaching riding season I get caught up in the pleasure of prepping the bikes. Wheels are trued, brakes adjusted, new tires mounted, just a lot of getting caught up in this little thing of getting things just right.

Today, I have some free time that is given to waxing. The '88 Cannondale Criterium has been neglected in this act of shining joy. I built this from a frameset, hand sanded and repainted to perfection. It's crazy how little the concern over this bike's shine until late winter. Ahhhh, that's better. Next!

How often do you wax your bike(s)?
