Parts Update

This morning I received and update from the seller on the expander cog.  Sounds like they lost it in shipping and are sending a different one.  Plus it will be red.  Looks like I will be putting it on the Vortex after all.  Best part is the seller initiated the communication.

When I checked the mail today I found a package for me.  It was the Gear King 36 tooth cog that I ordered for road use on the Vortex for the summer.

Looks nice.

Hoping it fits better than the 30 tooth that I recently installed?

Temperature got well into the 50's today and should hit 60 or higher tomorrow.  Forecast is above 50 through the weekend!

Maybe spring is here?

Summer Vacation Day 4: The ER

Day four started out with beautiful weather.  We had breakfast and Michelle took Brendan fishing.  I decided I would take a ride on the bike and do a little recon for a family bike ride. I set off east to ride toward Rapid River.  I rode around the the edge of the bay and took a few pictures. Dunes on the edge of Gladstone. This was around 4-5 miles out of town in a small subdivision. The photo above is of a small river I crossed, unfortunately I cannot remember the name.  I thought I found a bike trail that would be nice for all of us.  Unfortunately it was swampy and not kept up.  I headed back to Gladstone and met Michelle and Brendan out on the fishing dock. I sat with them for a while and Brendan caught this. This is a Gobi.  An invasive species of the Great Lakes. After a few minutes I started back to the house.  On the way I started to have some chest pain.  After showering it had not let up. ...

Summer Vacation: Day 8, Marquette

Day out started out cool, cloudy and windy.  It would stay like that the entire day.  After Michelle got up we took a little walk in the park by the bay.  It was very cool and returned to the house.  The plan for the day was to go to Marquette to visit Raymond and his family and have dinner with them. I received a text from Raymond that informed me the weather was not good there and it had not been for the entire week.  It had been very cold and windy.  He told me to bring warm clothes and we would probably be inside. We arrived at there location just after 3:00pm and it was cold and windy.  They told us it had been worse earlier in the day.  After talking for a while Angel started to make burgers and hot dogs on the grill.  We walked down to the beach with Raymond to discover that the beach was not really there.  The water has been so high this year and the waves were coming in so hard there was no beach.  They said they h...

New Year Has Passed

  Our New Year vacation ended when we went to work this morning.  It was a really nice vacation.  On New Year Day I had planned to do a ride to kick off the New Year.  Unfortunately I slept in and then the morning passed.  I decided to get on the trainer and watch the start of the MSU game.  It looked like they were going to get blown out.  Then things changed in the second half.  What great game and come back by MSU.  Michelle's family then came over and we watched more football and ate left overs from New Years Eve.  It was a very low key day.   On Friday I was able to get out for a nice 13 plus mile ride on the Green Machine.  It was a beautiful day.   I was on a false flat of the biggest climb of the day and seen this view.  So I snapped a couple pics with my phone.     On Saturday we started to do some housework and we woke up to some snow.  The roads were covered so I took t...
