This morning was pretty dreary, with very wet roads until well after lunch. Nonetheless, Fred Radnor (Witcomb fixed gear/road conversion), Rick Cool (mystery bike, originally salmon color with nice chrome lugs), and Your Obdt. Svt. (Roma Sport tracker w. FB HF hubs, Magistroni cranks and rainproofing all over (rust)) showed up and rolled about 20 mi round trip on the W&OD. A good start on which to build; don't forget next Saturday's ride at 10:00; contact wbingham@imf.org for details. Let's ride!
