Yes it's Tuesday again and time to ride. Some of us have been very busy doing long road rides, worthy trail maintenance efforts, taking FT3 Gen two riders on Epic MTB rides or building super sweet low budget single speeds. Thus the late call out for tonight's ride.
Hopefully I will be riding the new super sweet low budget single speed, but only time will tell. Thus far it is not looking promising, but certainly not due to any lack of effort on the part of Bambi who put forth a tremendous late night push to get it rolling. The Spoke came through big with inexpensive parts from 'upstairs.' So much appreciation and a big shout out goes to them.
Which bike will I ride?

TWO! I finally remembered to put the Ghost Pepper Melindas in my bike bag so I will have a hot sauce offering tonight. Cappy, what parts are holding up the single?
ReplyDeleteStill on hold for brakes. hope to get some on at lunch though.
ReplyDeleteNot going to make it for the ride, but I do plan on biking up for the taco session. Should be a beautiful, big moon this evening. And not just in the Knott Lot.
ReplyDeleteCappy, if you need help with bike wrenching, I've got some time today.
Nice NoCar, thanks for the offer!! Also glad to hear you will be making the roll up! Once again, FT3 collective is in full effect. I will take you up on it. I will be picking up brakes from C-Man around 12:30 and have only 1 hour to install them. Fortunately they are hydraulic disc so it should be easy. I will see you around 1:00pm.
ReplyDeleteWill arrive tonight in time for Tacos not via knobby tires, but knobby soles! Got to catch the start of a basketball game.
ReplyDeleteFor everyone who can't endure not knowing which bike the Cap'n will be riding tonight, it looks like his new SS is in fine working order. Desperate to complete it for tonight's ride, he had to steal the grips off of his daughter's bike.
ReplyDeleteXteric makes 4!
ReplyDeleteMuch appreciation goes out to FT3 Riders Bambi, C-Man and NoCar for the sub 24-hour completion of the super sweet low budget single speed project, a.k.a. Black Knight Number 2.
ReplyDeleteI would also like to thank Pedro, who kicked off this project by buying my fixie. Big ups to Pedro.
ReplyDeleteShould we vote for Pedro as well, according to his stump speech he will "make all your dreams come true"!
ReplyDeleteVote Pedro for belt drive niners

I'd love to join you guys but worry about slowing you down since I'm not used to the snow/ muddy conditions. If you guys are patient enough to wait around for me, count me in! . . . FIVE! @ 5:45 lot
ReplyDeleteAs may have been guessed, I am out today. Back to the grind in SB. Damn it is warm down here.
ReplyDeleteMaybe safety1st can take my place as the slow guy tonight.
