2fat

The fat tire bike is finished and I’ve been riding. This bike is a lot of fun. The traction and cushioning from the big tires really makes new types of riding possible.

24″ bike and ride

The sun has been out and the trails have been dry so I removed the fenders from the 24″ Diamond 18 speed bike.

 Tonights ride started out sunny and ended with thunder and rain.

  

 My bike takes me to where I should be.

 It was a good ride.
