Up at USC again so did few miles thru East LA on the 78/9 Spitfire 24 before it goes in the for sale section. while waiting in the Eye Institute saw this federal prisoner with 2 guards so wonder who he might be?

I got out today. I continue on with the 700c wheels. The wheel builder shop is closed due to covid.
The guys tries hard too, but some unexpecting bloke came in & later tested positive. Wheels won't come as soon... Bummer.

Also I got hit by a car today. I was on a downhill sidewalk going 5-10 mph. A car pulled out of a blind alley. My rear caliper brake did not have the grip to stop me. I did not hit the ground but my left leg got pinned between the car and my bike. Bent my seatpost, bent my rear wheel, but I rode the final mile back to my start. Whew, I got lucky.
I was on the sidewalk to stay clear of cars & traffic and I get nailed by a car lol. Ironic
Front and rear brakes will be used after todays lesson! A coaster brake would of worked better to skid steer.

Wow glad you are OK. Does seem ironic.

Rolled up Coyote creek against a heavy wind to the smallest skate park I've ever see in Cypress and then sneaked back on Carbon creek ( locked gates ). I was thinking it's kinda sad I'm always riding something I'm selling because all my keepers are buried so the white 80 was in front of the pile today!
