Exactly, I love to wash the bike in my favorite mankini! Pics coming soon!

Got soaked on the way back home. I did enjoy splitting lanes all the way from the ballpark to the 14th Street bridge while everyone else was stuck in traffic Wink

Went on a long, work sponsored ride.  Now I need to go get some degreaser and chain lube.

Finally got off my ass and put the Seven together today.  Took it out on the W&OD for about 15 miles before realizing that I forgot to check the torque on the cranks.   bang head  Luckily another rider had an 8mm bit on him, so I was able to tighten it back up and get it back home.   waytogo

I wish, but something tells me that would raise a few eyebrows ripping down the W&OD in one of those.   Evil

Seven rocks! Damn, manno, you've got good taste (and $$$) in bikes. The closest I ever got to seven was Independent Fabrications. Steel, though. Still have the frame, and I share blood with the guy who welded it.

Lemme know when ur ready for a ride. Though I've got a single (48/16 ratio) I can still move along at 12 MPH average. Plus I can swap the hub and go freewheel for some whoopee.

Dude, Indy's are nothing to scoff at!!  Those things are super sweet rides!  I wanted one for a long time, but ran across a deal that I couldn't let pass by on the Seven.  Is your Indy a Crown Jewel?  Let's get that thing put together and go out for a spin. 

I used to ride this Bianchi, but sold it to get the Seven.

ah the famous white carbon bianchi interesting.

and you got an "odonata" to replace it.  i wanted to get an axiom years ago, should have as they were much cheaper back then when the company was just starting out in around '99 or so.   laughingdp

The L'una was a great ride, but was just a hair too long for me in the TT department.  Had it for about three years, then let it go when I saw the deal on the Seven (it's actually an Id8 ).  I was a knucklehead though and didn't keep the Eurus wheels from the Bianchi.  I bought them in Italy and didn't pay all that much for them, but when I priced them here in the states?   Shocked

Of course - because you just restocked the fridge after the last debacle...

Some people are like Slinkies. They're really good for nothing; however, they can still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
