All the gear is assembled. Double checking my checklist, working to balance the panniers for even weight distribution. A special thanks to Messrs. Mike Bleakley and Michael Watson at Toga Bikes here in the city for donating a pair of clipless shoes for the ride. It's miraculous how much extra power I seem to get out of my stroke, though I have had a couple near-mishaps at stoplights, forgetting that my feet are clipped in. The folks at Toga seem to really know their stuff, and helped me to select the right gear for my needs and my budget.
Printing my maps and lists of contacts, and spraying them down with Krylon Crystal Clear to prevent ink-bleeding in the event of spill or rain disasters. Off we go, first thing in the morning.
Heart,
