I got my book and my bearings from James on the same day! Almost like Christmas! I read the entire book at work last night... I now have a different perspective on this bike!Joab

Good perspective I hope?Originally posted by Joab View Post
I quickly thumbed thru my copy and set it up on the fire place mantle like a display. I'm trying to hold off till our bike trip to central Oregon in June to read it. I'm not a big tv watcher while on vacation. I think after a whole day of sightseeing on the bikes, a good soak in the hot tub.... Kick back in the easy chair with this book and a couple 12 beers outta be the way to spend my evening unwinding.
