What bike did you ride today?

Got out for a New Years day ride through downtown and the College. It was nice and quiet out, kinda cloudy but not too cool. I'm sure liking the 48 tooth chainring on the '61 Skyrider. I've been getting some kind comments about the patina and overall look of this ride.

Went out earlier today on my 48 year old Speedster for a comfy 18 mile ride, breeze and sunny near 80 F.

You don't need a traffic vest with that bright paint job!

It’s a new year and my teenage son will still ride old bikes with me...it helps when the ride comes with a burger! Ha ha!

Started off the New Year with the late-20's/early30's Ward Hawthorne Flyer converted to 26" wheels.

Sort of a shorter ride on the 38 rollfast with the 2013 cranky kiddo. We turned the bikes around and went home when she refused to wear a mask. The kid's growing up and changing as we all do through life, but I think the lack of social interaction is frustrating for her. I'm sure we'll have much better rides throughout 2021.... but we are off to kind of a rough start. Snapped a pic of the bike when we got home.

I went on a great bike ride today, honest. went to my favorite place in the world, Niles, California. I bet I took 50 pictures, towards the end of the day what I thought was the "28" wheelie bike kids" riding into town was the "grown up BMX'ers club". must have been 200 of them. all kinna crazy BMX inspired single speed bikes. youngsters too, but a few original issue BMX people looked like they snuck in. (50 year olds) it was crazy. I did not know this bike phenomenon existed.... not a cantilever frame anywhere to be found. if there were gears there I did not see them.

I don't have photos because my PHONE sucked up my batteries to the point where I can't load pics to my computer....you will just have to believe me.

Here's to hoping this year is not as busy as 2020 was for me.

Didn't ride the last couple of days because of a large amount of rain.
Also, it was darn chilly. A scene from yesterday.

This photo is from 30 miles west of where I live, very early this morning.

Anyway, in keeping with my night riding theme, here's to a year of great rides for everyone.

Still cold out.

I like to get in a New Year ride on my oldest bike as soon as I can. Since my new year starts on the 19th, I love to ride my 1919 Arch Frame Mead Ranger whenever I am able in January to commemorate another year in the rear view mirror.
