After years of absence from cycling..... I almost accidently rediscovered my cycling passion. I also found as much I enjoy cycling.... I also find pleasure in wrenching on bikes. After buying a (then) new bike... I proceeded to buy and fix-up or restore every bike I missed owning.... since my teenage years when I had new 1963 Schwinn Varsity.

Some bike I sold at real profit.... some I practically (or literally) gave away. I made enough... with buying, fixing, owning & selling the hobby was at least self-supporting. A yellow Trek, and a Red Cannondale... were too sweet to let go.

They all fit but other, newer, Trek fits like young skin.... and is my daily rider. I was exploring different bike fits when I found it. It felt too good not to own it.

The Gravel Grinder in my foul weather bike... which I am fitting for a little bike camping as well. I bought the gravel bike because it drew my interest.... with big tires and disc brakes. And it's price. Brand new it was a real value.
