Spring is here and it is time to hit the bike again. So, here goes….
Yesterday I pulled the bikes out of storage. Man, do they need some cleaning! Anyway, I couldn’t find my Pro Link chain lube so I had to use a little old teflon bottle I found in my tool box. It worked, but I think I’ll go buy some good stuff in the next week or two. Anyway….
I finally made the Mountain Bike operational and prepared to take it out for a short spin. I figured I would find the Nashua River Trail and give it a look. As I put on my shoes I broke the little string that holds them on. The shoes are great, but I never loved the little ratcheting design to tighten them. So I rigged up a knot and made it work.
The ride was nice. There were several cyclists on the roads. The weather is still great, but rain is on the way. That should give me time to figure out what I should do with my shoe…find some chain lube…and recover. I know my chubby body is going to feel the first ride (at least in one or two areas for sure!)
