Between Memorial Day weekend and Departure Day.

Lots of planning, packing and bike work in the margins of our days.

Jeff and Joshua have been participating in bike repair workshops and open shop nights at West Town Bikes.  WOW.  They have learned a ton and repaired things we didn’t know needed fixing.

I, for one, am tremendously grateful.  The bike I was riding had wheels rubbing the brake every rotation in addition to the gear shifting problems.  I’m glad to know that my need to “pick up the pace” was tied to legitimate issues, not just my poor physical condition and age!

Looking forward to having all the bikes in top working condition for our trip.
