The weather let up enough on Saturday to provide a primo ride opportunity. I am not sure what has gotten into her but, the wifer wanted has been experimenting with my old single speed bike over the last week. She decided to change it up a little and see what all the hubbub is about. We did a little bike maint so she would have a better working bike than what I had been dealing with over the past couple of yrs. We swapped out forks from my old geared bike onto this bike and then replaced the brake housing, cables and pads so they feel brand spanking new.
The wifer decided she wanted to tag along on today's ride so off we went. We parked down by 9 mile and rode up to Thompson Park where we did the lower loop, then upper loop, then headed up to Pipestone pass where we caught the CDT over to Beaver Ponds and took the connector trail over to Blacktail. She hung in there for a good solid 20 mile ride on the singlespeed - not too shabby for her 3rd time out on it...
It was a nice day to be out and it was even better considering it had been a few days since I had been able to put rubber to dirt....The wifer decided she wanted to tag along on today's ride so off we went.
