drevil: Lighting upgrade already done. The rear had been a B+M incandescent Toplight, long ago smashed. That is an AXA Riff found in the reflector bin at the shop. The OE Basta halogen was just inadequate in output and beam, even by yesterday’s standards. The front light is now a B+M Eyc Plus, minus the switch & tail light wiring needed for a dynohub. The bike’s wiring to a rear sidepull generator was too nicely integrated to mess with. Though the OE generator wouldn’t power the LED front beyond a flicker. Bearings felt funny, so… a B+M sidepull dyno last used for my Trek was put into service. Mission accomplished.
The mystery cylinder’s a little small for a hamster, though…

Today was the first day I’ve felt good enough to get back on the bike. Went back to the scene of the crime of almost exactly one week ago. I’m still pretty black and blue but I can actually ride better than I can walk, which made me happy.
I saw these rocks when I wiped out and thought I was well to the left? The only logical explanation I can come up with is that there was a troll hiding there that threw one of them into my front wheel. This time I built an elaborate teak spirit house at the entrance and put bowls of rice and incense in it. Rode through both ways no problem.
You rode this? Looking at that broken up concrete… You’re a braver man than I am, Gunga Din.
