so i finally finished my new road bike...
it's an old bianchi frame joe, adam and i found last summer in a trailer park. we talked to the owners for a while, then joe bought it, somehow crammed it in the trunk of the mercedes and took it home where it was dismembered. i ended up with the frame and turned it into an awesome free-wheel single speed. joe gave me a couple wheels, a stem, brake calipers and a seat. the rest i scrounged from the bike collective, disorderly house, fishers, cyclesmith and wasatch touring. there were snags along the way, mostly because bike shops aren't open 24 hours, but it finally came together, and i LOVE it! i rode a lot this weekend - so much so that my butt was still a little sore monday, but i suppose that's par for the course, especially when i haven't ridden in quite a long while. i need to take a photo and post it. in the meantime, let's start planning this summer's rides to the gallivan summer concerts and midnight films at the tower and the saturday morning farmers market, etc... :)
