Two towns over to the farmers market in Collinsville, CT for produce, meat, and brunch. Farthest I’ve gone on the ‘55 Vette. Stock 18T cog on the Sturmey, 35 lbs on the rack, and another 85 tied to the axle (10 less on the way there). I was running 55lbs in the tires, and rear felt like it was deflating. I won’t say it was a walk in the park, but we made it, and I’m a better person because of it.

The verdict is in: As I suspected, an old middleweight Schwinn is really all the bike I need.

I don't know about you, but I have about had my fill of triple digit nights this year.


Of course, in 4 months I am going to be having the single digit nights. I prefer the 80's.

Mrs. friend and I rode Casey Key Rd this morning. 11.5 miles round trip. I rode my Western Flyer and she chose Mr. Bernie, our '64 Typhoon w/ 2 speed kickback.

The tiki bar at the turn around point was closed for vacation! No Mimosas for Mrs. friend!

Nice.

This sure looks a lot like a Westfield built Elgin.

It is. Repainted by the original owner. Came off a property that has been in the same family for 200 years. I just cleaned it and changed the wheels. Added the light. Rides nice

Very nice!

Didn't ride it far. Looks like the sweetheart sprocket has to go. The extra washer needed for the chain ring to clear the frame causes chain misalignment with the rear cog. I do have another smaller chain ring - just had my '' heart " set on the sweetheart sprocket. Boooooo.

Rode the Northern Rail Trail today,on the '48 Western Flyer. Beautiful scenery, this bike rides very well with the new tires. Through the tunnel into another dimension. Checked out an excavator. Stopped at Potter Place Railway station and General store. Then hit a covered bridge. Then out of tunnel and back to reality. Awesome afternoon for a ride.

I picked the Elgin Tiki Cruiser again, and wore a Sears September shirt for the occasion; to the Circle City Ride in Orange, via the Wedge in Newport Beach.

Almost 60 miles today; It rides great!

Did you ride from Franklin to Potter Place? That’s a good ride.

Started at Lawrence St and rode to Eagle pond Rd. Not sure the miles but didn't seem like a real long ride. I need to get a taller seat post for longer rides.

Another long ride today on the Elgin Tanker Rat. To the coast, south on PCH, Newport back bay bike route, inland up San Diego Creek past UCI to my flip point, then back outbound to Balboa Island, across Newport Bay on the Ferry, down to the Wedge, up the coast to Sunset Beach, then another flip, back down the coast and then inland to Costa Mesa via the Santa Ana river bike route. Very lIttle wind and cooler. 63mi on a metal seat. Excellent day going long.
In order of record.

Goat head got my front tire. I could hear it tapping against the concrete. When the steering started to feel “weird” I knew something was up. I stopped under a light, pulled out the goat head and heard the rest of the air come rushing out. Didn’t take long to get it rolling again with a spare tube and tools under good light. Good spot to stop.

Fun rolling home on my semi-flaccid hand pumped front tire, getting pushed by a tail wind.

Morning ride into work on my '56 Jaguar. A brisk 48 degrees. Awesome ride wanted to keep on rolling. But....
