By tradition, today there will be many stories and photos. Let's go!...

New wheel bearings front and rear $60...

Smoothly we come to an end of my story about Morocco. Today, it's Marrakech and then we go towards the ferry and Spain. Also I'll write some tips when planning a route for this country....

One of the most popular dreams among those who travel around the world is to open their hostel. And we, perhaps, will open a tire workshop)))...

In Morocco, you need to stay in riads - hotels located in old houses, with very beautiful oriental ornaments and motifs. You can find a super option for 60 euros....

It turned out that entering Brazil = entering the summer. We did not even have time to undress, the real heat at 27 degrees crushed and melted us so that we could not get together for two days. Acclim...

Bars did end up coming yesterday. Got them and the riser "on" after work last night. Bike master "super bike" bend 7/8 and outlaw racing risers. In my opinion a really nice setup for only ~$55 for the...

Work, snow, and family obligations took up most of my weekend. But I was able to get a couple important steps done....

Rethought how I was going to trim that part for the lower dog bone mount. New plan in pic below, old in the last post....

Today I didn't make any progress on the bike. Physically that is. I did how ever pick up a very key tool for completing this project....

So, all in all things are working out well. I'll work on my bearing and rear shock issues next. For now here is how she's looking....

Although I don't have a frame jig, I can make a decent try at keeping the new rear some what centered....
