    Thanks all.

    I?m guessing some of you, like me, keep the bike inside during the winter. But that garage floor real estate is precious for those of us who take on home renovation winter projects. My bike helps me by becoming a coat rack, a saw horse, or a place to lean pieces of drywall.

    This week?s theme is Double Duty.

      Ha. We did some cleaning out last winter. There were so many old blankets and sheets on my bike that if the garage roof collapsed, the bike probably would have been unharmed.

          Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

              I wanted to go for ride.
              Wife wanted to take doggie for a walk.
              So we went for ride, all of us, to a park, to take doggie for walk.
              Double Duty.

              No, "Double Duty" is not a reference to the load on the suspension system.

                      Are you sure you didn't chase off a brown GK to get that spot? I'd swear I've seen that peir before.

                          Roger Burque has a good observation. That be Grand HAven State Park, just inside the main enterance, campground on the right, beach/pier ahead. GH pier is quite unique/recognizable by the beacon tower inner light and the big blockhouse enterance light. Lake Michigan does have appearence of ocean, in that cant see across it (60-90 miles) and takes up view all the way to left and right (175miles).


                          about same spot, (but closer to campground, and time of year that campground empty)

                          Norm, I recall your visit a few years ago. You need a return visit sometime that I am home.

                            Dog in carrier, on wifes lap.
                            The math could be applied to load on the suspension (I have learned to adjust suspension before she comes out of the house, not while she is standing there).
                            Or the could apply math to remaining length on the seat (which would involve a negative number).
