Flatted on my (wet) day to work. Switched over to Schwalbe Marathon afterwards, no flat since.

Let the soul dangle.. simply cruising around without any direction, just finding new roads.

I got the 'bent out St Patrick's day, it was a little chilly but still sunny and clear.

I love this bike.

Also used my Kona on the weekend to go to and fro, riding light and appreciating how well it handles these beat up roads.

Now we have another 8-10 inches of snow on the ground... it was nice while it lasted.

Ha, correct. Braking is fine. My commute is pretty flat, so it's not much of an issue.

Thanks!

I've been buying frames and parts for years but finally broke down and bought my first "new" bike since 1994 - 2014 Fairdale Weekender Drop. After about a month of daily commutes this is configuration number 3 and though I hate the way the stem extender looks it works for my 50+ neck. If you're not familiar with Fairdale (and I wasn't either) it's a pretty cool company out of Austin. I'm loving this - looking forward to touring on it if the weather ever gets warm.

Yesterday, I installed Vittoria Voyager Hyper tires, rated at 37mm, measured at 35mm. They're huge, but they seem fast, and they're comfy.

I am also running 700cx35 tires on my commuter and really like the ride. Almost as comfy as my 26" MTB tires. Of course these are 35MM tires on 25mm rims. No problems with a ittle over 200 miles on them so far........

I really want a Huffy like that.

It looks like spring has sprung in a lot of places... nice to see folks busting out the nicer rides.

Will still be rolling on snow tyres until later in the week here.

:D

Here's mine. Bought it last week and its a blast to commute with so far!

that is a sweet bike my man!

Wow, I can dig it. I went to the Fairdale web site and they make some great bikes.
Thanks for sharing this with us.

Thanks!:)

New for 2015 are the rack and trunk bag.
I grew weary of the backpack.

Very funny, [MENTION=367865]leegf[/MENTION].

I let my wife try Citibike. I had no idea she would love it so much. She signed up immediately and is impatiently awaiting her key.

Nice E46 M3 in the pic, I love those cars. :)

Isn't that Bianchi in danger of someone renting it? Or does the lock stay keyed to a credit card or something?

If the latter, that's an intriguing idea. If bike-friendly businesses installed locking bike racks, and key in and out with your credit card. Charge a dollar for convenient, secure locking - I'd pay it.

It was just a joke, [MENTION=227213]wphamilton[/MENTION]. I docked the bike, snapped a photo, and resumed the remainder of my journey.

Everything but the headlights :)

Clever idea, but it would have to be as convenient as these docking stations but somehow it would need to lock the frame and both wheels.

I wonder how much those stations cost?

A lot, I'm sure.

I want to see these in our country. Underground Bicycle Parking in Japan - Video Dailymotion

The Metro stations around here used to have racks that had two pieces that scissored up after you put your bike in a track. The two sides had rods that went through your frame and both wheels,then you would put your U lock through the whole thing. It allowed you to lock both wheels and the frame with just one lock. No idea how effective they actually were;I saw many of them broken,so I don't know if bikes were taken or if they just weren't maintained properly.

Of course,there's always bike lockers,which most of the stations have now. Better idea since you can leave things like helmets and accessories on the bike,and none of it can be seen without breaking into the locker.

Well at least if somebody steals your bianchi track fixie, you might be able to get the city to help track them by their credit card!

I like the station-less DB system much better.

[MENTION=249656]WestMass[/MENTION], do you love your lights?

Yes! I'm running the Herrmans H-One S Amazon.com : Herrmans H-One S dynamo powered bike headlight : Sports & Outdoors

with the Herrmans H-Track tail light http://www.amazon.com/Herrmans-H-Tra...=herrmans+tail


Excellent lights!

schweeeeet.

Front disk and rear canti's? I don't think I've ever seen that before.
