'Nother non-epic ride this afternoon in 70*F Rio Rancho (next door to ABQ), NM, opn the '99 Joe gofast -- the first time I've ridden it in a long time.
I've been thinking of putting Compass 1.5s on it (it would require a wheel rebuild, from 571 to 559), or perhaps having derailleur and brake bits brazed on and a custom rack made to make it a derailleur equivalent of the '03 Curt commuter; most of my riding is detours built around errand rides anyway. Anyway, I took it out for an hour of hills and wind in northern RR -- wind in my face as I stood on the longish hills. It has 23 mm Michelin Pro Race tires and a 75" gear (and a 65" bailout, but I rarely use it). What fun to ride a light (17.5 lb) bike with very light (200 gram tires, 370 gram rims) on hills! And of course it fits and handles exquisitely. I think I'll keep it like it is. -- Resumes, LinkedIn profiles, bios, and letters that get interviews. By-the-hour resume and LinkedIn coaching.
