Here a a few cars I came across out riding today.
Note the awesome bike in front of the Lamborghini.
A Lancia not sure of the model.
Awesome badge on the Lancia would look great as a bikes head badge.

Thanks noglider - he's an awesome kid and one heck of an athlete. Just got him up in the hills on a mountain bike last week and he loved it.

I did a quick 30 while my wife & kids were out. The loop went through Valley Forge National Park so I took a few pics.
Got home and was hungry so I pulled a big purple heirloom tomato and a couple of cucumbers form the garden. Made a tomato, lettuce & cheese sandwich and cucumber salad. I love this time of year.....

A few shots from this morning's ride
riding through Treasure Island, FL
About 15 miles into the ride; Ruffy not so Tuffy. A staple? Really?
My friend found something to do with their bike while I fixed my flat tire

I think I need to remove the BB from the weekends wet ride. When I took the chain off and spun the crank I could hear the dirt in there.

That does seem surprising. Just yesterday I rode straight over a gigantic piece of broken bottle. I'm talking inches big and jagged. I thought it would take a chuck of tire with it for sure, but the Maxxis tires have been real champs so far.

Returning the favor to a very helpful C&Ver, I finally finished duplicating the drillium on a pair of first-generation Shimano Dura-Ace chainrings.
I'm not perfect, however, and the drill bit wandered on me twice (anodizing, particularly black, is hard stuff to get the pilot hole going on). Can you find where I touched up the oopses with black Sharpie?
For the black, I had to find a silver Sharpie to do my layout - regular black wasn't going to cut it
After I got my reference points, I began with a small bit to do the pilot holes. I then wiped off any trace of silver Sharpie so I could determine if I had any adjustments to make with the larger bits. I made slight adjustments to some areas as I went along, and I'm happy with the result.
Oh, and this marked a first: today was the first time I drilliumed something other than Campagnolo

That cactus looks like pitaya, or dragon fruit. If it is, it is an exquisite fruit. Keep an eye on it.

In the tires defense the staple went directly in...as if someone took a stapler and jammed it in there and made two nice little holes. I'm going to chalk it up to bad luck...for now lol
I found this pic on my friends facebook last night, apparantly he took a pic of me in tire changing mode ha ha
Me & a young family friend getting ready for a weenie roast and s'mores this past weekend
Ites Gold & Green if you know what I mean
-- they're protective heat sleeves for the glass studio I work at
My co-worker David adding color to some molten glass

Not 5 miles from fender1's Valley Forge pictures, I took this picture on Saturday morning. This a friend of mine that dusted of his 1978 Trek and finally got it out after 20 years. It has a little wheel hop, but rides very nice. Guess who gets to do the tune up and add a few things to make it more rideable?
My ride was not vintage (Salsa Casseroll), because I rode about 20 miles on a gravel trail to meet him and did not want to dirty up the Vintage rides.

Trust me, he heard about it.
Did you ride up to Valley Forge from Berwyn? The roads up to Valley Forge are brutal.

Bike rack at Vista House on Crown Point, Oregon Highway 30.
Would love to make the ride up here and along this beautiful highway someday.

Oneonta Gorge...
My wife is hard core... carrying our daughter through a rather deep section on the way to the falls.
Left my camera with a friend as I was worried about drowning it when I went through... should have packed a zip lock to protect it.
Coming out... soaked through and through.

Tired of seeing pictures of my daughter sitting in a trailer yet? To bad! Today we rode a tad over 19 miles. We took a really nice, relatively new MUP to the local bike shop. After buying some brake housing, we headed back home, winding through city streets. I was thinking that we were going to take the other MUP... but it's closed until August 31st.

They do have a front office for walk-in purchases. I was going to wake up and walk around the corner for some Pw grease this week.
