Went on my first bike ride of the year. It was nothing special really. I do not have the tenacity to put the bike rack back on the trunk of the car, load up the bikes, and drive down to see what the Tow Path looks like in the middle of an Ohio March, which may I remind you there is still snow visible on the ground in parking lots and other assorted places that do not get a great deal of light. Eddy, Deanna, and I all went down to the store and to the park. Patty was at a friends house, so she could not have gone. I wish I knew what the name of that store, but I really do not.

I checked everyone’s air pressure. I have some tuning to do on the brakes on both of their bikes. Eddy’s bike I am not so concerned with, since I believe I will be replacing that this year. I do not feel his bike is the right size for him any longer. I sprayed their chains and gears with WD-40 and I think that took care of some of the rust. I did not take any pictures, but honestly all I would have been taking pictures of is the neighborhood that I see outside my door every day.

I can not find any of the water bottles I bought last year, and I am beginning to think that even if I were to find them I would not necessarily want them any longer. I still need to get thinner profile tires for my bike, because the whole mountain bike tire thing really isn’t going to work for this street/path riding.
