First time teaching my neice to ride without training wheels. Liv Adore by Giant, I scored it at the local bike kitchen for $20.00 Took the trainers temporarily(?) off and she got a few seconds of coasting onm She will need a new bike soon because hers is a bit small for her. |

Today I rode 56 miles round trip to the Philly Bike Expo. I had a great ride down the Schuylkill River Trail and into the city. I stopped in at the new Philly Rail Park and snapped on the Philly version of the High Line. Nice place.
I also got some cool Philly socks, https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...40206e24f2.jpg Philly Rail Park https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...29ef9fccee.jpg Rocky against the Philly skyline https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...8d39b3c442.jpg Bottom message |

It is a Cesare track bike from the 1990's. It was retired from racing and my friend gave it to me as it was sitting in his garage never to be raced again. I added brakes, bottle cage mounts and ran the brake cable through the top tube. I also made a custom head badge to memorialize my son. I have about 25k miles on it and love it. I did 5 Bike MS rides this year. More pictures on the build at: Memorial to Matthew R. Dille
Ride Safe, Joe |
Beautiful day today, went out for 30-ish miles on the FG.

Took the IRO into the woods a bit over the weekend. Confirmed this gearing is way too high. Need to pick up a smaller chainring and switch it to drop bars and then it'll really be ready to rock.

Another day, another ride. My usual weekend fun run on mixed road/gravel through the Sumas Prairie.
This is a section of the original Yale Road that stretched between New Westminster and the Fraser Canyon built during the gold rush of the mid 1800's. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4915/...89678a18_b.jpg A rest break at the original Arnold train depot. Arnold was a small farming community nestled beneath the shoulders of Vedder Mountain adjacent to the CAN/US border. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4899/...0cc5df05_b.jpg For some reason I call this one "Fish rides bike". An omage to the recent Sockeye Salmon run. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4832/...3087e133_b.jpg And an end run along dike systems and woodland back home. Depending on the route it can vary between 30-50km's of fairly flat and small roller hills - but with predictably common strong headwinds. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4907/...4ecff798_b.jpg |
^^ Great photos and excellent prose.

Wow! I would love to ride that path. That is beautiful
The Silver Comet Trail is the 2nd longest paved trail in the US. A photo thread is at https://www.bikeforums.net/southeast...il-photos.html The photo below was taken the same day. Seemed like I had the trail all to myself. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...067c57a7fe.jpg -Tim- |
