My back pack came open a couple of days ago and I surmise that it's because I had the zippers at the top and the wind caught them in the tiny gap between them and forced them open. I now close the zippers and put them on the side so the wind can't force them open. Haven't had an issue since.

Today I removed the rear wheel and replaced it with another rim that I picked up for free from a local member. The old dunlop tire was toast and the kush was very sloppy. The new rim is silver instead of black and the Kush was nice and tight. Cleaned the chain and lubed it up, tightened to 1" of play and aligned it.

Going to swap over the front tire to the silver rim this weekend, maybe.


Took the front sprocket cover of and cleaned in there. Going to have to get a new front sprocket at the end of the season. Going to hold out until then and maybe change the sprocket sizes.

Also decided to check the front tire pressure as it felt a little sloppy this morning, 11psi!!!!!!!

Pumped that 'ish up to 32 on the front and 36 in the rear on the new tire.

Hoping I don't have a slow leak on the front and will monitor it.


Took it for a ride around the block and, WOW, totally different bike now.
