Back In Business



Rode the XO-2 down to Kaladi Brothers, this morning, and had my coffee.  For some reason, my world just seemed a little wonky, with this bike out of commission.

All good, now.

What is it about certain bikes (or guitars, or pocket knives, or whatever) that make them take a special place in our hearts?  I have plenty of other bikes to ride, so having this one down was not affecting my mobility, at all.  Yet, I felt compelled to get it sorted , ASAP.

Do you have a favorite ______, for which you have no explainable reason to hold so dear?

  1. Yeah when my yellow Schwinn is down it gets priority treatment even though I may be riding another bike at the time. I just do not feel right unless it is available.

Sorry about the word verification. I know you hate it...I hate it, too. But, the Spambots are suddenly coming out of the woodwork, and this is my first line of defense against them.

So, all humans are welcome. Spambots can go to Hell.
