You know, I still sew on a 1902 treadle sewing machine. I even used to sew for a living on that thing.
My mid-life crisis buy was my bike - and a new sleeping bag, and a new tent... We joke about our bikes being our RV(s).

Give big space to the festive dog that make sport in the roadway. Avoid entanglement with your wheel spoke.

You know, those old machines are still the best, aren't they? At least in my opinion. Especially when they are all metal; you can sew just about anything on those things, and nothing breaks!

I'm tracking its progress from the UPS site... it left San Pablo at 3:11 a.m. on 4/08... due to arrive THursday. (I'm also getting a new wheel and disk brake on the Xtracycle so it can carry what it's supposed to carry if I see, say, a bookcase at a yard sale...)
