Rain, Sleet or Snow, hop on your bike let’s go!

my buddy has a 38 Schwinn that was his only transportation for a while. his crank was loose so he asked me to fix it, I have never seen so much dirt and junk in a set of bearings. took it apart and cleaned everything up and put it back together for him. I'm sure his hubs are equally a mess, but I didn't mention that since I don't really feel like fixing that.

bikes don't like a lot of wet weather riding. neither do I

Stuck with Fat franks in snow, no bueno.

I love these tires to death but they just don't cut it in the snow.

Here's one from yesterday's ride after we had the rare occurrence of some overnight rain.View attachment 929708
And the ultra rare occurrence of a full double arch rainbow.
I can't even remember the last time I saw one of those.
Maybe when I was backpacking in the Sierras.View attachment 929709
It was so big, that there was no way to get a picture of the whole span from where I was.
Sometimes you forget just how beautiful Mother Nature is.
It's nice to be reminded every once in awhile.

Marty, I’m a huge fan of this bike..such personality!!

From a few days ago before I got my snow tires back on.

5:30 PM: It is about 32 degrees and we are waiting for the 4 to 7 inches of snow that they are forecasting to arrive after midnight.

2:30 AM: Getting a little snow now. Out for a ride before work. I like riding on nights like this and making the first tracks in the snow. Everything is quiet and peaceful.

I have to get to school some how and my Allpro commuter never lets me down, even in 13 degree weather.

We had freezing rain last Friday night that brought us both down into the concrete but she held pretty strong.

Just a little wound to my pride but she didn't flinch.

13 degrees!!! You, sir are a Wildman.
