Thu Aug 13 00:53:19 UTC 2020 - I'm writing this from kindle thanks to the wonderful kterm program and a jailbroken kindle. It's weird using an e-ink display with the console. I should try out a gemini browser next.
Mon Jul 27 14:53:10 UTC 2020 - I'm still riding. This past week hasn't been that great for it though. I took off my old brake levers and put on some newer 80's Shimano SLR aero looking levers. The brake cable is routed along the handlebar instead of coming out the top. I had to order some new hoods. Of course, Shimano makes them slightly different for each model and I can't get the originals anymore. They almost fit. I also took the Nitto stem off my fixed gear and put it on the Catalina. It still looks like I'm riding an ancient bike.
Sat Jul 4 15:07:06 UTC 2020 - I am trying to psych myself up for another 50km bike ride. It's getting very hot and humid here and I feel like it affects my time.
I've only been getting back in to riding over the past month or so. My main road bike is a '66 Carlton Catalina. It's had a few upgrades over the years. Instead of being stuck with a 60's technology groupset, it is now sporting 80's tech. I've thought about swapping everything out to modern indexed shifting and 700c wheels. At least the 27' wheels are alloy. I had to get a strap mounted waterbottle cage mount just to carry water. At least the old lugged fram is a fairly comfortable ride on the rough roads around here.
