Was just on the road for 5 days. Seattle to Toledo. Going to check out some local bike culture this weekend with an eye out for zones.

Brand new 2022 Hex still in a box. Hoping to open it and bed in brakes and freewheel next week. My other poor bikes basically got sandblasted with road grit for 2000 miles then a few hundred more of hard rain. There is rust on both disc rotors on the simtra now. Got brand new pads and rotors and a bleed kit but lots of non bike stuff to deal with first.

Finally got this finished up. Out for the first spin today - I’m old and out of shape, but this thing is fun.

Apparently it is considered a vintage antique in these parts... I will find a new bike someday, aint paying $10,000 for one..

Yo Mikey! I have a Marino too! We should get together and ride our Marinos...

Feels like I haven’t posted anything in a bit, so..
Since I can’t find any info on the original tensioner for this bike or find one that is how I want.. Repurposed a broken shimano cage I had laying around into v1 of a chain tensioner for the FTW. Actually works a treat, pretty light too. I’ll eventually whip up some parts to laser cut, hopefully make it spring loaded but that’s down the road.

NIcely done. Kind of like the 74 Kingz but with jockey wheel.

 

[BenR]

Chemo is done. Feel like a dead donkey dick. But it's okay.

 

[Indy]

Glad to hear!

 

[bentmettle]

The done part! not the donkey part...

 

[Blackstick]

What's the plan now Ben? Glad to hear it's done, but man I know it can make you feel awful

 

[Swoofty]

Off the current topic, but... there's a free old Cannondale 'trials' bike on Pinkbike if anyone's interested https://www.pinkbike.com/buysell/3263713/

Also - congrats Ben! fingers crossed.
