I ride road bikes too. A 1979 Dave Moulton! Original owner. Do I care if I get dusted? He-ll no! At least I'm still out there. You're a bit over the hill too.
Love seeing the real steel out and about! Im back on my MASI this week, 75 miles so far. The Fast Friday ride will be done on it. I'm liking it. It's heavier than my carbon Canyon bike, but I climb as good or better on the MASI, way better downhill at speed on steel. I rode alderpoint from 36 to Garberville on Sunday on moto. Then home thru Covelo and M4 to the valley. Alderpoint would be fun to pedal on.
I'd enjoy checking out that area one day. I've mapped a few touring routes through there. It looks really nice. I think your Masi will hang with the group no problem. These bikes are fast, and the handling on the descents are superb.
@@Henrywildeberry The climb up Alderpoint rd from Garberville, would be memorable. It is steep and very curvy in spots. Its kinda like a paved trail in some spots. As the climb starts to flatten some, there is a sign to the right, for a road going thru Harris, which is an old general store and some folks living out there. Its Bell Springs road and its mostly gravel with some pavemento here and there. 45 miles of Bell Springs, and it drops down onto 101 11 miles north of Laytonville......its a cool road and would be fun to pedal. In Laytonville you can take the left to Dos Rios, for more fun on gravel.................Poonkinney rd is a left after Dos Rios and more gravel that pops out maybe 2 miles west of Covelo. Ive been riding these roads for years and years.
Hi Tedyeo it's a Leyzne Road Drive in size large. They come in three lengths, small, medium, and large. The pump pegs on my frame were spaced for the large. I added a small spring inside the pump to keep it from poping off the peg. I haven't lost one yet.
Thank you. Enjoyed watching. Am more and more and more and more ..and more aware,just how very much,humans are led along the road of ‘must have the latest,new,less user friendly product! Bikes having gone full speed into this,especially over the past four years of the greatest wealth transfer in history. In order to appreciate the pleasure of bike riding ,simple elegance and beauty of the bicycle and all its associated pleasures,not forgetting health benefits,one does not need the latest Carbon,Electric,Soulless offering……just saying!!
I couldn't agree more! Shimano is now selling mechanical cable actuated Deore model shifters for $22.00. These are very good shifters too, durable and reliable. The difference in effort to shift with these in comparison to a new electronic group to me doesn't warrant the cost of electronic. To me part of the pleasure is making it simple and seeing how well it works. You can always go out a spend a fortune and have something nice, but with bicycles you can make one without having too. Thanks for the comment!
Do you think they’d mind if we take one grape (as he eats his fifth one)? I switched to metric because the distance numbers are bigger (helps with my fragile ego). However you get cheated on the climbing numbers. It’s a trade off.
That busy highway section stressed me out a little. You two know how to keep it cool.
Thanks! I just wanted to get off that road a fast as possible.
I never get over just how loud the traffic is on busy roads.
Y’all got me in the first two seconds. ❤
Glad you enjoyed it! Eddie knows how to have a good time.
Ms Cools is legit cool. Good to see you both riding around NoCal again.
Classic steel out on the road. Nostalgic
Henry, your Conalgo just pops!!! Great to know the bikes history and you being involved with it's rebirth. Music was great as ever buddy.
Thank you! I'm really enjoying the bike and the classic style.It rides like a dream.
Sit down for lunch, and up pops a new HW vid with (imo) peak Van Halen. Life is good😊
It's chocolate with sprinkles.
Paused the vid 10 seconds in to give you multiple thumbs up for the intro song alone!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻!
Now, back to the show...
Awesome! Thank you so much.

Road ride in the Fall in Sonoma County can't be beat.
It's our favorite time of year. The leaves are just starting to change color, and the weather is perfect.
늘 자연과 함께 라이딩을 즐기는 모습 멋있습니다❤
It’s referred to as Brix for the measurement of sugar content. I too thought it was “bricks”

Ms. Cools ate 2 so I figured if I ate 5 they would throw me in prison and let her walk.
