Mileage: 15
November mileage: 245
Year to date: 2718

Wednesday- leisurely in the a.m. on southern route via Audobon Park and then to Sunergos for new ground beans and a mint tea. p.m. was alright until i was just hit wall. completely knackered i was. crawled home in the dripping mid-50s, but you know what? great ride and great day.

Interesting article showed up on the local kycyclist listserve about where many bikes are made or assembled or built. Tricky business. Seems bikes have been bitten by the same bug as fruit and drugs. It's Asia baby. 'Course, any Surly or Riv owner knows this. Surlys are built in Taiwan, Rivs in Japan and some in the U.S. Peace and keep riding.
