Clown Bike and the first Wednesday night Ride

Wednesday Night rides on on again.

Meet Larry, your daugthers new boyfriend.


New, redesigned Surly Pugsley



riding to work yesterday
Did the wednesday night ride yesterday. The temps were in the 20's with a semi hardpack trail. Had some mechanicals with one of the bikes and there was a lot of hiking going on. Got back on track and kept riding for a while longer. Got in a solid 3 hours of exercise. The Pugsley is the new one that Surly redesigned. The dropped the top tube, giving the rider more standover height and they also came out with another anomaly of a colore. Is it Green? Is it Brown? Nobody knows. I polled people, including the wife who is really good with colors, and nobody was able to give me a straight answer. I am ditching the 135mm spaced fork for the adventure model which is lighter and runs a standard 100mm wide hub.Should be interesting to build this up. Larry is Surly' s new tire. I think it will work good in all conditions. We'll see.
Best,
Ari
