Monday is World Carfree Day
See if there are any events in your area. There aren’t any in mine. In fact, there isn’t much going on in the US at all for World Carfree Day. WE WON’T LET THAT STOP US, WILL WE? Mark and I will go carfree on Monday. (Mark, in fact, has been riding his bike to work most days, which has been a really good thing lately because a lot of gas stations here STILL DON’T HAVE GAS. At one point during this artificial gas crisis, Asheville’s average gas prices were the third highest in country, behind only Alaska and Hawaii. WTF.)
The sekrit projekt bike is coming along. The 90mm stem wasn’t enough, so I went up to 120 mm. Now I’m waiting for a setback seatpost to arrive to put my ass back farther. And I need to assemble the buckets, install the front rack, and Dremel the fender stays down to size so I can install the fenders. Which are ugly. I hate them. But without further ado, here is Chuck, the no-longer-sekrit projekt bike:
Out of the box!

Assembled!

As of last night!
