Welcome to #Checkin for Sunday, September 29th, 2024!
Why howdy there #Checkin people, it’s Rod again.
On today’s menu:
Not much, other than Michaelmas, National Coffee Day and National Biscotti Day. Ooh, coffee and biscotti. I can do that!
I plan making a Dutch Baby for Val’s breakfast, and then heading over to the bicycle collective to see what I can get done. I'm taking my project over to see if they can help me sort out the chain line. It's a modified 42T Shimano Dura Ace on the front and a 22 on the Nexus 8. I don't know what it will take, but it's way off line, much wider at the chainring, and I'm trying to use a single speed fixie chain. Do I need a narrower crankset or a spacer on the rear? I don't know which, but hey have volunteer professional bicycle mechanics there who can steer numbskulls like me in the right direction.
Yesterday I had the pleasure of having breakfast and hanging out with Rod and Annalisa again at Liberty Station this morning, and I didn’t get photos of them or us together. (sigh) They’ll be on their way back to Nevada, soon, so I won't see them for at last another month.
I already miss their faces.
Last time the kids were in town, I talked about the bike collective, and how I'm able to bring my bike and use their tools, but that means I only get to work on my bike on Sundays, so this time they brought me a bicycle mechanic's beginner toolbox. It contains much of what I need to work on my bike in the way of using the correct tools. All I need now is a good repair stand. Before finding the collective I wasn't getting much done using my regular motorcycle tools. And now I get to work on my bike at home with the right tool for the right job!. Cool beans!
I wonder how survivors in hurricane Helene's devastating pathway are holding up. I've heard from friends in Florida and Georgia, and they are okay, just some downed trees and temporary electrical outage, which doesn't seem to be the case elsewhere. We really have to stop burning things for energy.
As usual, the topic is open.
