bike trip 2008a

Jul 11, 2008 23:21




i built this upside-down touring bike. it is far and away the best bike I've ever owned. i got it as a frame and fork with some rust damage. i de-rusted and rebuilt it. it is full of bike nerd bits and pieces. i disabled 4 other bikes to get all the parts together. my previous #1 bike, the Raleigh Gran Sport in the background, got it the worst. it sacrificed a wheel, a rack and a seat. i'll put them back! or things comparable. i promise.

the frame used to be this, for something a bit classier, check the  previous page.

we're going to bike for a week. Sorta like this.

we leave tomorrow. in a car. then we take a boat with a casino on it. then we bike.

uncannily i happened on a flickr album from a couple that did the exact tour, last year.

oh, and i ran a steady 9.5 miles today, and the last mile, i ran in 6:40. negative splittin'. that's hot.

i'm afraid my iphone is erasing my everything. beep beep beep it says. it seems like all the apps suck. anyone have a good idea for a decent iPhone app? i'll do it.

bye!
