What did you do to your bike today? (v2)
sal, a man-deer:
put my directors back on, and switched the animal stem off with a solid.
Also put some clear eastern grips on, but I don't like them much yet.
Considering painting it soon, and I got some nice leather from the dump that I want to recover one of my premium fat pivotals with like this guy did...

I am pretty impressed with the finish. Used leather from an abandoned sofa. The centre piec aint the best job and the stapling and gluing aint tip top but better than an off white and torn cover...

but the shoe-goo-style adhesives I've tried are crap and I can't figure out how to make it look normal even if I do get it to stick. Thinking I need some staples...
streetStreet:
I started stripping paint off my forecaster and might leave it a bit roughed up cause it looks good.
Dead End:
Road my touring/cross bike over 100 miles in the past few days. Bombing through a ton of rails to trails in the countryside.
Dick:
Actually rode it today. Bailed on a few tricks so I felt bad for it.
torontoflatlander:
Thanks to a debilitating cough, I've polished up the bike today and that's all I've been able to do to it for the past 3 weeks. FML. (yes, first world problems)
