Big Blue, with the Twin Peaks of Mount Meeker and Long's Peak in the background.

My usual resedential routing jams are still snowy, so I used the greenway for a bit.

Beautiful mild summer’s day for a shakedown ride on the ‘39 Roadmaster with its new skiptooth setup. I spent an hour dressing the sharp edges of the Ichi bikes sprocket. It runs way quieter now and should improve more once it breaks in.

Skip tooth looks great on that frame, such a neat juxtaposition with the Nexus. Really nice beach shot. I'm soaking up that sun

Is that a "Pixie" chain ring? That's a nice touch. I've been wanting to do that to one of my bikes!

Thanks, it’s a Schwinn Stingray chainring 36t. I’ve found that 36t (with 20 t in back) is as big as this old man’s knees will handle for 20-30 mi on gravel with SS , and I don’t walk up hills.

Head to head Worksman shootout:

Both are solid rides, but in my books, blue is the winner. Dislike one wheel drive on the orange one, the drive wheel spins when I stand to pedal or turn at speed.

I think I finally worked out how to gear a 3 speed correctly. I matched the gearing of 2nd gear to that of my favorite single speed bike. I now have 2 very usable gears in 1st and 2nd with 3rd being a long overdrive. The front sprocket I left at 44t but dropped 2 teeth on the rear sprocket to a 17t.

First ride with the family this year, it was 10c out and we decided to get out for a ride.

Early morning ride to the bay before work to beat the heat. The scenery is so beautiful in the morning and I ain’t talking about the beach! This candy colored beast is so comfortable with the ape hanger but also fast with a nexus 4 speed out back. Will be putting more miles on this one from now on.

I have been enjoying this one lately.

Rode this ’80 Schwinn Cruiser after going through it for a friend. It hadn’t been ridden in a long time but like most old USA steel, it rides great now after some TLC, a few new parts and fresh grease.

I went for a ride up to a park with the family while my daughter was in town to bounce some balls around. We were all on different builds that I had made.
while putting the bikes in the rack a guy on an old cruiser looked at Fixed Pain, and asked “how many bikes is that”. Lol.
I had to think but said four.
