Who rides a bike?

[MontyMo]

Great news! Don't be as stubborn as I am. I almost got stuck on my trainer after 'climbing' on it when my wife was gone

LOL That is too funny. I could see myself doing that

I see your bikes and raise you an engine.

bah, anyone can ride a motorcycle. Although I haven't since the last time I laid one down at speed.

Thought I'd keep you up to date. Under strict supervision my by phyical theropist I was able to get back on my Computrainer. Low watts and Low RPM, but I am back on my bike!

Broken Femur day 34: Unbelievable. On the trainer! Five minutes, 60 RPM 65 watts!
So excited!

hrm, indoor torture device..ermmm trainer. Check.
Fan, check.
Laptop to at least keep yourself occupied as you virtually ride, check!

Glad to see you're on the mend. I do recall, all too well, being awful excited about 5 minutes!

Finally got completely done with it!
Here's everything from where I left off:
Got everything on, and shortened it a bit more. Brushed it down-

Taping up and getting it ready for priming-

Priming-

Painting-

Adhesive pad strips finally came in. Ready to go!-

I love the way it turned out!

That rack looks pretty sweet. One thing though - Any time a rack contacts the frame - there will be rub. I have that problem with my racks - my fork now has some rub marks where the rack touched the fork. I went low tech and got stickers to put over the contact points on the bike. Better to have the stickers get beat up rather than the bike.

Also two new additions to the family. A dirt jumper and I got my wife a Carbon Santa Cruz Nomad. My kid rides the red Strider - highly recommended instead of training wheels. The White bike is my Kona Downhill bike mentioned before.

I have my own rolls(hundreds of feet) of stoneshield(the material that ZAGG uses for iPhones/iPads/others) taped on my bike and on the bike rack(notice how it's shiny? That's the material). Looks like clear tape. You can see some of it on my bike in the last pic.

Nice - so where do you get hundreds of feet of stoneshield?

LOL that was so long ago. I currently have been mountain biking on my upgrade 2013 Trek Wahoo and I road bike on a 1993 Specialized Allez.

Yes...this thread has been "quiet" for quite some time (5+ years). But the photos still look good.
