I’ve been lazy in adding new pictures… Got a new camera last week, more pictures on the way!
These pictures were taken in early May the day after I picked up the bike from FitWerx. I immediately added fenders, racks, handlebar bag mount, a kickstand, and other odds and ends: bottle cages, computer, frame pump, rear light.
Yes, I’m using a kickstand, it’s amazing, and more to come on that front…

I'm done now, so there isn't much going on here. I used Twitter to publish updates during the ride, which worked out very well - highly recommended!
