Foiled: I was looking forward to assembling the new Cannondale bike today, but because the frameset and fork came with the wrong crown race, a tiny but critical part of the steering system, I was unable to proceed. I was hoping to have it together for the WBL ride this Saturday winterbikeleague.com, now I'll have to re-assemble the cracked Team Genesis bike and hope it will last for one more ride.
Spared: I thought I was going to have to re-build the relatively new rear hub on my MTB, but as I was cleaning it up I discovered a small vine was tangled between the cassette and hub, and when I got it out the hub was fine again.
Thanksgiving: There is no family get-together this year. All my nearby brothers are at their mother-in-law's houses, Rachel is with her boyfriend and his mother, Bev and Ruth are playing cards and drinking wine... I guess I'll go back out to the garage and put my old bike back together.
