What have you been riding lately?

I know, I'm very happy with my garage. Always a requirement for Matti

I'd love to have a garage! But being single, making an average wage, and living in Copenhagen, I don't expect to ever have one.
Hence bikes parked in the living room of my 3rd. storey flat-share, and using a corner of my room as a workshop.

I'm incredibly fortunate here in Canada, vast expanses, good roads, and a garage in every driveway. If only we had better public transport!

How do you like those grips? I bought a few pair but haven't installed them on anything just yet

They are used but very very nice. Shadow conspiracy brand - they were $2 at a swap.

O the cars are so nice where they don't salt the roads for winter.

I bought 4 sets at an LBS that was going out of business quite some time ago. I'll use them at some point

The Coppertone Fastback, second one in. We had 3 Fastbacks, a '64 Sting-Ray, and a Flamboyant Lime Collegiate on this ride.

I've been doing a lot of single speed river riding lately, with Big Red and the Crossroads Sport. Latest was 30 miles yesterday on WV's Greenbrier River Trail. Lots of wildflowers in bloom, and the weather was mostly sunny, cool and breezy pretty much all day. Great cycling weather.

Nice bikes, @wvoldguy . Any information or build thread, especially the Crossroads?

One of my favorite riders. Completely original and rides like new.

Not really a build thread, but a few progress pics: https://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/i...ialized-crossroads-sport.113191/#post-1170105

Knicked the green tires from the free to me fixie. Put them on my old Cannondale. It's just an old cad2 but I paid forty bucks for it like 12yrs ago and converted it to a street hybrid with 38c tires, upright handlebars and a suspension seat post. Sticker bombed it a little last year. It's my "normal" bike so I had to personalize it somewhat. Threw the old Bontrager tires on the white fixie, makes more sense for the flip-flop wheel to have a unidirectional tire and really I'll probably pass this bike along. Besides why do I need a fixie? Rode the C2 all afternoon...

GC.

Shakedown ride on the new gravel unit. Making slight tweaks to the seat and bars as I went. Added cages, Specialized seat, Shimano SPD pedals, ano top cap, and swapped a bunch of hardware for stainless

I might wind up swapping the cranks out for some Shimano units or the hollow tech ones on the shelf

Ever do a build thread on your Cannondale ? Here is the H300 I pickled up from a LBS back room...

An as it is now...

I have been riding it lately. Pretty dialed in for me except on account of it being a small frame I can't sit as upright as I'd like and my shoulders and neck suffer for it. I have some of those handlebar extensions... How do you like them?
