Zen and the Art of JamisAllegroA3Bicycle Maintenance

(You see what I did there, right?)

Today being Sunday, I did my early ride and then brought tools, towels, lubes, etc. up from the basement for some very basic bike maintenance out in the driveway.

I hosed off 2-3 weeks worth of road grim--collected on the frame from riding after rainstorms, cleaned and lubed the chain, pumped up the tires, and oiled the derailleurs.

I was hoping to have the new fenders here to install, but that didn't happen.

I'm also waiting for the Reebok face masks I ordered to wear while riding. I'm hoping that helps to moderate the cold air I'm now breathing, along with filtering out any mold spores, per Patrizia.

Anyway, that's about all I've got, as far as REALLY exciting stuff, lol.

Otherwise, gonna write some checks/pay some bills, see if my son is still interested in assembling the bike shed that's currently blocking the back of my driveway, and whether my daughter will consider going halves with me to replace some plumbing that's become a recurring problem.

I guess the excitement is all in one's perspective, lol.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend...
