Thanks. I need to get out more. Saw two foxes and a bald eagle this trip. Heard a few owls, including screech owls.

And a raccoon got into one of my panniers the first night even though there was no food in it.



Bonus photo of Lucy. She served as a speakeasy during prohibition.

yes, those are RH naches pass 1.8 or so. actual measurement is 41mm on the rims. I also have a set of Rat Trap Passes mounted on another set of wheels. It rolls pretty good for a clunker. I have been riding my Canyon pretty much the last year and finally decided to take the xoxo out for a couple of rides the last couple of days and had forgotten how nice it rides.

they also measured around 41 mm initial install - have grown a very small amount since then

I like the naches better than the RTP.

Sunrise Ride

I`ve been riding down to Lake Michigan to catch the sunrise quite often this summer. It never grows old.

Gull sitting on one of the docks at boat launch. Taken about 30 minutes before sunrise. The sky above was like a pastel painting.
