awesome scenery out in the hills, great photos, spring is late here as well, the warm weather should be showing up soon. I hope. My bike is coming from Mike next week, looking forward to using it. What broke on your one-off? Anything I should be concerned about? Have a great day

only thing with the one off is just 4yrs of wear n' tear taking it's toll. I blew a DT-Swiss freehub body - Go Shimano! i coulda fixed it out of my junk box! - Garro.
Beautiful flowers! Thanks for sharing, Steve. Happy to know real spring has come in Flagstaff.
Yes, all the junk box has Shi*mano freehub body. I wrestled with UG one for my FH7400 yesterday.

Garro's Mystery Flowers!
MF#1 Platystemon californicus aka Cream cups
MF#2 Baileya multiradiata aka Desert Merigold
Penstemon pseudospectabilis aka AZ penstemon (apparently in only pseudo spectabular)
MF#3 Melampodium leucanthum aka Blackfoot Daisy
MF#4 will remain a mystery unless you think it could be MF#1 in bud.
Good plant challenge. I had to seek help from Mar on these. I'm going to add cyber-botany to my resume!
Sheesh Steve...those flower pics are making me homesick all over again! Bonito!
