Resurrection and the king
The monkey is back, with some fun new additions. I got a hall pass from work this morning, to take M to the dental surgeon, and managed to fit in an early test ride. I may need to modify the XXL Surly cable hanger for more tire clearance. If it weren’t for said space issues,…

The Canyon knows me
“Bad” weather here in AZ this weekend, rain all day yesterday and last night. Snow above 6500′. 3″ on the rim at 7k. Time to go see the ditch in another of it’s many moods. This one was taken as I left, but does the job. Everytime I walk into the ditch with appropriate fear,…
