Wow. Can't deny the beauty of those photos and where you've ridden. Love the touring narrative with the photos - keep 'em coming. Hmm, don't remember the fenders on your bike at first, like when you did the C&O. Wonder when those got added.

Fenders had to come off for the C&O because I was using 26x1.5" tires that were too big for the fenders. My regular tires are 26x1.3" and work with fenders.
Oil is good, grease is better.

It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.
