#fixed conversion

I was taking home some hot and sour soup for my conference call last night and was reminded of the trickery about carrying tall spillables in a front basket. On my old grocery getter, Ye Blacke Death, I had multiple web harnesses. On this one, I only had one webbing to start with. So I could barely keep the thing upright. I started with the net over it and a second lashing to keep it moored to the basket in case it flipped (lots of rough road) but then switched to netting the entire thing to the side. It was still a bit unsteady for my tastes. A good reminder to have the second webbing handy. Anyway, never spilled and it worked out fine.  Side note of amusement: A woman about a half block away asked me what I charged for delivery. _________________ Chief of Ninja Group SUPEESU.

I'm not saying I'm DOING it, I'm just admitting its tempting. The plan for this bike is to build it up with period Campy. I have all the parts. The entire ride is ready for assembly, just waiting for time.  But I see a sweet, sweet frame in the shoppe and my almost irresistible instinct is to build it up fixed. It doesn't help when you have all the resources. I just threw the wheels on for science. Anyway, I resist. But Yayo better be ready when this bike is! _________________ Chief of Ninja Group
