Been a while since I've done a morning session. Went for a walk yesterday to explore the mtb trails, still lots of snow and ice in the covered areas and mud in the open areas, but I think it's ridable. Gonna go get dirty on them tomorrow.

Get creative with a water bottle. Cut in half vertically you have two fenders. One on the downtube and one for the back.....couple holes and some zip ties and bam! Fenders! LOL I've done it many times....works awesome. And you don't care if one gets ripped off.

I have been thinking about fenders...Where I ride there's a lot of geese poop.... Yuck!

And I'm thinking a cheap go pro would be a good idea too, so when I hit someone or something in the park, I can say, you stepped in front of me, dumbass! Or worse!

And lastly, a rear view mirror.

I HAVE been wearing a helmet, which I never did before on a bicycle...It came with the bike, so why not!

You're loving that bike eh? How's your shoulder pain after your ride?

I have a tiny fender on the fork that does a surprisingly good job of keeping mud out of your face. I used to have an ass saver mud guard that clips to your seat but I lost it somewhere on the trail.

I really am loving it! Both shoulders were sore yesterday after my 20 mile ride, but not terrible...and I can play around more with the handlebar position, now that my longer brake cable is here. The riser really helped though.

I don't think I have ever ridden 20 miles on a bike at once, except maybe as a kid.

I actually didn't even make them as much for me but my bike. Throwing mud and rocks at the shock and downtube messes stuff up.
