Riding wise, the year has been disappointing. I did get a handful of memorable rides in, but had wanted to do so much more. A bit of disappointment at having to miss the final Cirque du Cyclism, but such is life.

Acquisitions and progress... it was epic, and may well have cured me of N+1 temptations.

Got my Competizione back from gugie, painted it and built it up. I also acquired not one, but two Raleigh Internationals (in copper no less). One from eBay in my wife's size. The other from SLOAR in my ideal size. I got the Argos up and running after a false start. Also picked up a great local deal on a single speed wheelset to replace the one that's presently on the Viking Trackmaster. Thanks so much gugie and SLOAR. Additionally, I had more than my share of help sourcing parts from the trade and WTB areas here. This is the greatest community I know of (CR is a close 2nd)

All I have to do now is wrap up remaining projects, and get out to ride more... (hopefully after a move to a much more riding conducive area).
