I Finally got around to the work on my road bike I've been meaning to do for a few years. It went unused in Como as I was out of town a bit and used my mountain bike on the trails in town. I updated from the old school 27" wheels to an old 700c wheel set I put new bearings in as well as new tires and tubes-my first trip into presta valves. I also got rid of extra metal by cutting off the bars and brake levers. So, I'm set to get back on my old tall frame Raliegh (36" stand over)...and for the World Naked Bike Ride on July 27th-I'll be the one with the naked barbie doll on back.
