Another Bike Done

 
This has been a tough week.  Very busy at work and I could feel a cold coming on at the start of the week.  It hit me hard on Wednesday and I ran a bit of a fever until Friday afternoon.  Missed two days of work and felt miserable.  Actually starting to feel normal as I write this.  First time in three days.
 
I did manage to finish JJ's old bike today.
 
Done and hung up.
 
So all the bikes have been cleaned up and updated after Ore to Shore.  Only took a month and a half.  Have some parts listed on eBay and a few more waiting in the wings.  Also trying to sell the tandem.
 
While setting around Friday afternoon I did an eBay search and found a great deal on a White Brothers Snowpack Carbon Fat Bike fork.  It should be here by Tuesday.  Just a couple scratches on one of the fork legs.  The Green Machine is going to love this upgrade!
 
So get on your bike and ride.

Summer Vacation: Day 10, Heading Home.

A lighthouse for Michelle.  A mouse in a tuxedo! We got back on the road and stopped at another rest area.   Very cool! Brendan made a friend. The were not to bad. Our next stop would be St. Ignace.  We wanted to eat at Clyde's Drive In.  However, after arriving the place was packed.  So we went to B.C. Pizza again.  After lunch we made our way to Castle Rock as we were not able to climb it on o...

Independence Day

Another busy weekend and celebration of our country's independence.  I got a short ride in on Friday morning.  We then were preparing for a wedding.  Barb and Steve, a couple at our church were getting married and the ceremony/reception would be at Dawn and Reuben's house.  Reuben performed the ceremony and I was asked to do the photography.  This worked out great as I had purchased a used Sony DSLR camera on eBay and got to test it out.  It was a very nice ceremony and celebration with our church family and friends.   You may kiss the bride!   We then stuck around and all of us went to the fireworks at the Clio Park to cap off the evening.  We got home late and went right to bed.   I slept in a bit on Saturday morning and got up to watch the start of the Tour de France.  It was a good stage with a sprint finish and a bad crash that took Mark Cavendish out of the race.  I then ventured out on a 23 mile ride o...

Brendan's Last Birthday Party

So today we had another party for Brendan's Birthday.  We also celebrated MacKenzie's birthday today (hers was yesterday).  We had Michelle's parents here also.  This was about the 6th birthday celebration for Brendan.  Michelle made some really cool cakes for the two of them.   Brendan's Turtle Cake     Mackenzie's Owl Cake   Everyone arrived and we had a great meal and watched the Michigan/Michigan State game.  Very close game with Michigan pulling out the win in the last seconds.  There was cake and ice cream and the traditional Happy Birthday song.
