Keri's bike as it sits - i actually have the stays & the dropouts all fit and mitered & just need to tack them on. i'll get around to that later today after breakfast & stretching - my back is killing me this morning.
a pic of the headtube miters during an alignment check - tight!
Mc D got me an action pic of his new Rohloff bike. in his words:....... I LOVE MY NEW BIKE!!! first real ride on it went rode up and over the hill behind the house, way up onto the next hill (pretty much to snowline), around Dog Valley (Toolie's final resting place) and back up the first hill's backside and descended on home. 7.5 hours, 50+ miles, 9000' climbing. refilled water from snowmelt and depleted all of that by the top of the last climb. the descent was a pleasant 4000' jeep road and single track run all the way home. the bike handled perfectly, was totally comfortable and quite responsive. thanks again!
Tracey got her frame back from Spectrum Powder Works - looks killer! can't wait to see some pics of it in action cruising the Rockies.........

Steve, if I haven't told you lately, I love you and all that you do and are.
I know that sounds pretty gay, but you're a hero.
