A Ride to Jacksonville

[redbirds_imp]

Cycles of Jacksonville sell all their bikes with nitrogen in the tires. If it makes a difference I certainly can't tell. The tires seem just as subject to temperature change variance as air filled tires. The most important thing is to have an air drier in-line for pressurized air.

Our roads around here give little opportunity to test the real performance of tires. A trip to the mountains will be a good test. I have not even had the bike out since my last report. Too many projects around home, painting mostly, but we intend to ride some today. There is a road near home with a few good curves. I'll take that one today for sure. My road out front is in terrible condition. The road grader guys (county employees) quit two weeks ago and our road is a mess of deep ruts and sand. Might have to trailer out to the paved road.
