Can I also say, I'm really digging everyone's bikes!!!!!! Really nice stuff. I'm totally jealous. LOL. I had not really had my eyes set on 10 speeds until I rescued one from the garbage the other night.
Although it's not a 10 speed any longer. Someone turned it into a fixed gear.........

I think this is a hat trick of the three most recent challenges. Any bonus for being out in the annoying drizzle? 
Shout out to PNW for making Soda Pop Fenders.

I'd like to see "sport in the background," that is, any kind of sport/game going on. Hockey, tennis, disc golf, kids whipping snowballs at each other, whatever.

P.S. Santa is a rather common female name around here, so in theory I could ask one of them to take a picture with my bike
Too bad there isn't one among my closest acquaintances.

I wasn't even thinking of inflatable ones. I might have on in my neighborhood. I forget now. I've been seeing a lot of decorations though.....

Fire station. Wanted: Veteran tree
Here, a fire station. If you look closely, you can see fire trucks behind the gates.
Next mission: a big old (veteran) tree; diameter at breast height should be roughly one bike length or more

I can't say I've seen many large diameter trees near me. They probably all got cut down to make wooden Santas.

You would be blessed indeed. Unless you had to chop it down. Then not so blessed. Tree guys are charging an arm and a leg around here because we have this bug called the Emerald Ash Borer and it's killing ash trees by the droves. Lots of houses with woodpiles around here. We have 7 trees that are all dead and have to be cut down. The guy came and did one of them already..... He's an old neighbor and does odd jobs and not a specific tree guy. I think right now if we had tree people they would be charging in excess of 5k. I kid you not. The neighbor got a quote for 2 trees it was 2k. The prices for their work has gone up tremendously cuz there's so much work right now. I'm not sure if it's like this around the country but it's pretty sad. Especially on my book. I've negotiated some cash and 4 guns in trade to get this work done. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...........
That's my rant for today.
Fifty six, I freaking love your bike.
