Took DevilWing out for a cruise on the Farmington Canal Trail. Finally got some riding pics and video:

here's the video:

It was a good ride. However, one snag. The left pedal disintegrated about a mile into the ride:

I just put the pieces in my pocket and rode another dozen miles on just the spindle.

I have to replace the pedals already but I am looking forward to putting dozens, hundreds, thousands more miles on this thing.

I was having a hard time trying to get the broken pedal back together, and I wanted to take the bike for a ride with a working pedal and not just a spindle, so I found a replacement with the pedals I pulled off the girl's higgins I am working on. This pedal spins smoothly.

I kinda like the way it looks. Now the question is whether to replace the left pedal with the matching one, or to leave them mis-matched.
