Dark as always and alittle cool, maybe 56-58 degrees. Rode my new "old" bike for the first time today. A yellow 70's C.Itoh. It was kinda reckless of me actually since I had done very little work on it and some cleaning. It was actually a smooth ride. Front and rear derailleurs need adjusting and new brake pads are needed. The bike chain was kinda loud and made the neighborhood dogs bark. Two of them actually got out of their yards to show their displeasure at the loud bike and give chase.
I think this will officially be my work bike and "junker". This one will be named the "Phoenix". She had a hard life but I'll make a decent ride out of her yet.
