Busy busy

Busy with life and not doing too much bike-wise. I did get out last weekend, and I've been fooling around with a front rack on the Fuji. All the discussion over the KOG list about the Kogswell Porteur has me thinking about front racks and I had this one in the parts pile. It isn't as elegant looking as some of Nitto's offerings, but the price was right. It was a great map platform last weekend and once I get a mount rigged up it should be a more stable bar bag platform as well. The new hub and rim for the Quickbeam arrived, so I hope to go to a local shop and pick up some spokes this weekend, and I'll be set to venture into wheel building.
