Well the title says it all, I got my new bike back form the factory warranty service, and it is better than new. Best thing is for the last few days here in Portland, the weather has been cold with daytime temps in the mid 20's F, and night time temps hovering in the high teens. This has not stopped me though. You may have noticed that I am a Blue Eyed Red Head, and my last name ends in SEN, so 20's and sunny is a nice fall day for me! I live up to my genes, and love cold clear weather. I went out tonight and rode for about 2 miles and other than my hands getting a bit stiff, I love it! Now I will need to get some gloves and tape up the vent holes in my helmet, and maybe wrap my face in a scarf, but other than that it is a wind breaker and jeans, no mater how cold. Sorry to ramble on about this, but I really, really do love cold crisp, clear weather. On the cloudy days around here, I get S. A.D. and just don't function.
So, look for some pictures of the bike, and in a few months a new skinny Contax with no beer belly!
