19/30

A delivery of bearings this morning meant I could get the Pompino and the Soda back on the road. Yay. New rear hub bearings for the Pompino (and a thorough clean of the drivetrain) and a new NDS HT2 bearing, middle ring and drivetrain clean for the Soda.
Once that was done I headed off into the sunshine on the Soda for my first ride in shorts this year! It was nice having gears again for easy spinning up hills. Shortish route - up to the Pike, down the Ice Cream Run, back up and the down through the gardens followed by a play about in the woods looking for downhill runs. Very pleasant indeed. Back home to a huge bowl of risotto :)

Wow think I saw you today. I've been reading your blog with interest - don't think I could do 30 days in a row. I was on a spesh roadie in a purple jacket.

Chris, yes :)

Trio, yes, that was me! I'm not sure I can do 30 days in a row either!

I don't think it was warm enough for shorts either. I had mis-judged the weather and worn a light baselayer and a jersey so ended up with my jacket on.

I'm sure you'll make 30 in 30 now you are so far through it.
