Tonight I got my bike back from West County Cycles. I dropped it off there on Wednesday after my ride for its 30-day checkup. They found nothing out of the ordinary, and talked to me about maintenance that will keep me busy after my rides. However, those things’ll keep my bike in good order for a long time, and that’s what’s important.

Tomorrow, I’m planning to ride with my cleaned and tuned bike, and I’m hoping to click off another 20-30 miles. Kinda depends on the weather. It’s supposed to be hot, hot, hot tomorrow — 98 for the high, with a heat index of 110 — but I’m hoping for a reasonably nice morning.

BTW, Beck has named my bike. Sio named the truck Smokey, so Beck has named my bike The Bandit. Yep. Smokey and The Bandit.

Wouldn’t expect anything different from me, would ya? 🙂
