I want to ride my bicycle
After weeks of searching I found a reasonably priced frame to build a single speed bike for Helen. The bike is about one year younger than Helen is and the components are non-standard so if the frame is the right size I'm going to have to do a bit of research to source the size right parts, find adaptors or refurbish the originals. At least the bike will be several kilos lighter when the pie plate comes off that rear wheel! I'll keep you posted but try not to bore you (too much).

After two weeks away on the west coast Helen flew back into Reagan National Airport on Tuesday evening so, as the airport is close to my office, I spent a long day at work so I could pick her up. This also meant I spent a little bit more time with her which was important as I left home at 0400 the next day for a two day trip to Massachusetts. Massachusetts is a bit further north than DC and the temperature is much lower; for example today it is 27°C at home and 17°C here in Pittsfield. So instead of being hot in shorts and t-shirt, I'm cool in long trousers and jumper.
