You need to stick the teeny-tiny bike onto the workstand!

a nice pair of Ibex El Fitto riding knickers, which I have wanted for a long

I'd rather have the big bike; nice. What is it? I'd have to swap out the
stem, though -- that looks at least to be a 120, I use an 8.

Merry Christmas Ray!
I have just returned from my 10 mile ride around Palo Alto and Los Altos...
I need to work on my fitness so I can come ride with you next year! :-D

anything like it. However, I was expecting to see more pe

church and then the 8.4 miles to Mom's; quite enough for this

How do you like that taillight? I'm tempted to buy one (assume it's a
Spanninga), but I have one on my Electra that looks like that, and
it's not very bright.

I agree it's not that bright. The big red rectangle is really just a
reflector and there is a small non-blinky light below it. I think it
looks good but I have the blinky on the bag for extra visibility.

Speaking of, yesterday I did a beautiful ride on my Romulus from San
Francisco to Cupertino via PCH, Skyline, Sawyer Camp Trail, Cañada, etc.
Thanks to Ray for the Sawyer Camp Trail recommendation, it was just awesome!
Apparently it's often very busy but it was fairly empty on Christmas Eve. :)

I've got that workstand. Very nice, easy to use, sets up and collapses
quickly and easily. Plus, it's extra sturdy. It holds my Xtracycle with no
complaints. The biggest problem I heavy bikes is, well, hoisting them up
there.
Happy holidays!

A ride on the trainer and a run on the treadmill was all I could muster for
yesterday or today. Blizzard conditions with 45 to 50 mph gusts made me
thankful for my wood stove. One of my daughters is snowed in at her

Like Dave said, "I've got that workstand." I'll bet that tiny bike is pretty
easy to lift up into the stand as well...much easier than your Quickbeam.
The first thing folks always seem to ask about my QB is how much it weighs,
so
How much does that tiny bike weigh? Are you going to be able to

@TTM: Santa's definitely looking out for you!
Great Christmas breakfast @ my mom's, then presents at mi casa, then a ride,
then dinner back at my mom's (she's two miles away). Finished up playing
games and reading with the kiddo.
Wonderful ride to my favorite out and back hill climb. I really
Prior to selling my lovely Ahearne I managed to score a near perfect
Quickbeam frame and fork. The previous owner had the paint bead
blasted off (the original QB orange), then made the effort to
carefully sand away most of the surface colour irregularities in the
steel. The result is really sharp.
Wow!
Are you sure you want to put decals on that ride? It's absolutely
gorgeous as-is.
Congrats!

I treated the leather wit proofride and then put a number of silicon spray
coats onto the fabric. The tweed isn't going to be as waterproof as the
canvas.
I'm with i.e. Sure looks good sans decals!
