Just about ready to send the bent back to Taiwan..

About 8 weeks ago...Had fallen 4 times...On the right shoulder...On
left side...on my forearm...etc..eat gravel was my moto..
But gradually it started to work for me..Learned to plan my stops.
Got away from sudden steering moves just because the bent moved
around a little..Slowly...4 mile rides then 8 mile, 10 mile and
yesterday I did a 17 miler, with clip-less pedals on!! Had to be
really careful at the stops...Kept the left foot clipped in and
used the right to touch the ground..Still working on that, bottom
line...The bent is great! Lay back and enjoy the country..except
for the freaking occasional vehicle..slip on the mask to keep the
dust out of my lungs...Oh, btw..did I mention my rides are on dirt
and gravel?..I put a knobby on the front..20 x 1.7 and a semi cross
over..26 x 1.9 on the back..Work great on the township roads..
cheers! everyone..safe travels..
