Wish I could say that spring is here! The weather has been crazy as it can be this time of year. We have been getting a lot of precipitation. It is coming in all forms also. It is very wet here with a very high water table. We are trying to get the house ready for JJ's graduation and have not been able to work outside. Hoping this will change this weekend. Here is a picture from Sunday, April 10, 2016.
It snowed for really hard for a couple of hours.
We had some Wild Turkeys visit us a couple times in the first week of April.
On The Bike Front: I finally got the expander cog I had ordered back at the start of February. The one I ordered became unavailable which delayed the order. They then replaced it with a higher end model. It also came with a 16 tooth cog.
42 tooth expander cog.
You can see the 16 tooth cog in this picture.
These crank arm protectors also came in the package? They went onto the Vortex.
So I installed the expander cog on the Sram cassette that I had for the Access 29er. I removed the 15 and 17 tooth cogs from the cassette and put the 16 tooth in it's place. The wheel was reinstalled and ran it through the gears. It shifts really well on the work stand. Hope to get the bike out soon for testing.
This week finally brought sun shine and some dry weather. The builder was out and got our deck started on Wednesday. They finished it on Friday afternoon.
I will post some finished pictures when I can get some. I worked in the yard all day today. We almost have all the wood burned up now from the old house. That will get wrapped up next weekend.
Tomorrow we will celebrate Dad's birthday with family and friends. He will be 69 years young!
That should bring everything up to date.
