Sadly the summer in Vancouver has not yet landed, not even really a good dose of spring either. I've been looking forward to riding my bike daily, but the consistent rain has put a damper to my warm weather dreams. Over the last fall/winter, I found a bike the I really like and have slowly been outfitting it with the pieces, including the matching honey saddle and grips - was there really another option?

If you're in London and own one of these babies, make sure you take it with you! The light fingered brigade are nicking them left, right and centre.

Cloth tape + a few coats of shellac! Cork grips are acceptable on riser bars. Warm weather rides will arrive soon enough to dry up all thoughts of these rainy days.
