Rode the 41 DX badged Majestic for 28 miles today. It almost felt like autumn in the forrest with steel Gray skies and mid 40 temps.
The NOS 10 tooth Morrow rear sprocket with driver makes it a much better bike over distance than the 9 tooth.
The hubs are 100 percent fresh serviced and now rolling on new Duro tires as well. It’s like an entirely different bike. My first scratch build from a frame.

Dropped down off the paved path behind Bowman Field today to check out a creek bed, found a lot of concrete rubble.

There were so many different types of concrete, with mesh, rebar, cast iron plumbing, commercial fence posts, terra cotta, even some wadded up sheet metal that might have been a car at some point. Must have been the municipal dump.....right next to the creek bed, no wonder it's so polluted now.

Speaking of purification...Next stop, the Reservoir. I hadn't been in a while.

Llllove the gateway here at Sacred Heart!

Got about 12mi in today. Unfortunately, it's back to the drawing board for this drivetrain. First and second gear would only engage when they wanted. Either the chain would ride high and completely slip around 2nd when in range on the shifter, or slip and chatter trying to rise onto 1st. I just don't think the reach is enough on this derailleur to handle a 32t cluster. On the straight stretch back home, I laid the hammer down in 5th and had visions of a knee replacement in my near future after the chain slipped. I downshifted for a hill where 1st actually engaged. Went to put the hammer down again after leveling off and the chain started slipping again, only when standing on the right pedal, weird. When I looked back down the chainline, I noticed that I was in 4th gear, even though I was at the forward stop on the shifter, WTH?? This was where the picture above comes in to play. Anyone else ever have a cable twist out like that on a ride? Crazy to think, the length of a cable end is almost exactly the difference between 4th and 5th gear. Third gear was the only safe spot for the chain it seemed.

I moved some of my storage around with bad weather in the rear view for the season., of course I rode the bikes beforehand.

With work ramping up it was nice to have some time to clear the mind on an empty playground.

Rode a ‘47 Shelby Traveler today

Light rain most of the morning.

Some Skunk cabbage starting to bloom along trail.

Got a flat ( first one in a while) 1/2 mile from end, didn’t feel like fixing so I walked.

Took the "stationwagon" out to make deliveries and pick ups

Loaded up and ready to roll

At the work place

Dropping off the first delivery, freshly painted "Spring time" gnome.

Then rolled up to the market

Picked up some Ada's ho ho pies for my daughter.

Delivered some empty jars, exchanged them for full ones. Some beets and Chow Chow for me.

Ho ho pies delivered to my daughter. Riding back home.

RIDE SAFE GANG!

Two Trips to Sunset Beach, from the river mouth, and home for 52 miles today.

Busy path with lots to see; or avoid. LOL
