Bummer about the out-of-commission commuter. On the bright side, maybe that will allow you to give some love to the other four that they wouldn't ordinarily get?
As for it pushing back the MTB conversion, it's worth it, since that bike pays for itself.
****************
It's another super-windy day here; 24 mph gusting to 40+. Wanting to save my legs for the club ride tonight, I took the gravel eBike for commuting duty.
- 2 miles to work
- 5 miles to run an errand and go home for lunch just now
- 2 miles back home later
- 28-35 miles tonight for our club's Moderate Monday ride (15-17 mph avg pace)
Tomorrow will certainly be a rest day commuting by eBike again. Or maybe even scooter.
My lunchtime errand was to pick up some nice sporty prescription sunglasses that are suitable for riding; they're Maui Jims.
