Since I’m temporarily homeless now that I’ve arrived in the USA, I’ve decided to lay low until I know where I’ll eventually end up. The jury is still out. In the meantime, there is some mountain biking to summon.
Of course, getting to this point required a bit of maintenance, albeit surprisingly little:
- Wipe frame and wheels with rag
- Lube chain
- Reflect on a job well done
I think the coated Gore Ride-on cables helped to keep things in tune over the years.

Looks like it cleaned up well, only to get dirty again. Such is life.
