Bikes: It's complicated.

Riding – I (mostly) put down the torch over the prime riding months and rode a bit more than last year. Separating my shoulder put me out of action for a month and a half of those prime months.
Touring/Vacations – Eroica California, The Palouse ride, and French Fender Day were highlights. The biggest highlights of those rides were meeting up with my Bike Forum friends, both old and new. The PNW crew was ridden with, beer was shared, and any day just hanging out at l'Atelier with friends was a good one. The Ride, Wrench and Grill was pulled off again.

Eroica California:

Bike Collection – Somehow I started the year with only one Gran(d) Sport(s), and ended up with four in my size. The frame hooks hold two (or is it three?) more for future Gugificazione.



Personally, I'll add a 4th category
Torchwork - Made and shipped out 27 custom decaleurs, two full Gugificazione 650b reconstructs, a couple partials, 5 custom racks, and a couple of repairs. In addition a few people came by for frame and/opr fork straightening (which I do for beer, in case anyone wants to know).
