Surfing the Inner N8

Carolyn’s dad just came over and spent half his Saturday fixing up our new bikes.  Since we got the cheapies–essentially the equivalent of “Sam’s Choice”–they needed a lot of work.  Fortunately for us, Steve has knowledge about and experience with bike repair, and he likes helping people.  So that worked out just right!

Carolyn’s bike has cool motorcycle-esque gear shifts.  If I had those, I’d be tempted to stick a baseball card in my spokes to complete the effect.

We took them for a test ride and they work much better, though I think we might need to adjust hers a little more.  I’ll try to post pics of them on here soon so you can laugh at–I mean, admire them.
