So, like, I'm just whining now, tune out if not interested.
Sitting here at work. While the other option (unemployment) doesn't appeal, I *could* be doing the following:
Bleriot:
- give it a good bath (bucket of hot soapy water, and those Park bike-cleaning brushes)
- clean and lube the chain
- lube the pedals
- pick glass out of the tires (another handy bike maintenance hint)
- swap on the Michelin Axial Raid tires (rumored to be "faster" than the Panaracer Nifty Swifty)
- swap on the non-generator-hub front wheel (oops, which wheel should I put the Michelin on?) for the upcoming daylight-only long ride (Chico Wildflower Century, in case anyone is wondering. If I show up on any bike BUT the Rivendell, the trash-talk will be intense)
Lemond
- give it a good bath
- clean and lube the chain
- lube the pedals
- pick glass out of the tires
- ride it 10 more miles, so it rolls over 10,000 miles
Gitane
- install handlebar tape
- mount fenders and rear rack
- ride it further than 2 blocks; relearn how to use downtube shifters
