Took my Leader to work for some cleaning and repacking of the wheel bearings. A lot less funky noises now. And it cleans up nicely too. Then a short lunch ride today.

Took a ride out to my local spot-Quarry Lakes...

Then rode over to the Niles District to check out the Essanay Silent Film Museum (Charlie Chaplin) but it was closed...

Essanay Film Manufacturing Company, an early motion picture company, had a studio and back lot located in Niles from 1912–1916 at the canyon's western mouth. The canyon was featured in many early films, some by Broncho Billy and it was here that Charlie Chaplin filmed one of his most iconic movies, The Tramp. The Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum has exhibits, screenings, and events remembering its heritage.

Niles City Plaza...
At the center of the Niles District, the Niles Town Plaza revitalizes the quaint downtown by employing a railroad depot theme, which includes the newly renovated depot building, freight building, caboose, embedded railroad tracks, amphitheater, stage, seating areas, and central water feature.
A unique water feature pays tribute to the Nile's historical film role, which starred Charlie Chaplin in his early Hollywood career. Each of the spinning film roles depicts a historical aspect unique to the Niles community.

Great day for a ride!
 
Same bike, down to Newport, then back to carpool garage.
Always having fun.:D
On my way home, a goat-head got my rear tire.
I am going to try Tru Goo as suggested; but this bike is still due for some maintenance, so I'm parking it until that's done.:(
My contractor friend came and picked me and the bike up and took me home.
I only had to push it about 1/2 mile.:)

Bad news is that I broke the stem on my '32 Simmons, so I won't be able to ride it in tomorrow's Tweed Ride.

Silver lining is that a local guy who really wanted my Bianchi swapped me this clean refurbished Dunelt, plus a little pocket money :) Seems more fitting for the occasion, and I've been Brit-Curious for a while now.

I rode it to the Library to return a book, only to find I forgot a few overdue videos... Guess I'll have to go back.

"I rode it to the Library to return a book, only to find I forgot a few overdue videos... Guess I'll have to go back."

That was deliberate and premeditated.
I do it all the time.[emoji16]
