A current photo (September 4 2009). Yes, while fidgeting with this bike at 3:00am. last night I decided to remove the fenders. They really were quite tight - especially with these rather large wheels and tires... 630 x 28mm. (27" x 1-1/8"). One serious issue I had noticed was that with the non-French style steel "v-stays" of the cheap plastic fenders which I was using, the upper rod of the stays were rubbing against the chrome at the back of the fork blades. With the chrome so uncommonly nice on this bike I really did not want to risk any damage to the finish. To be honest, I had not entirely committed to fenders on this bike and had never even added my typical mud-flap - which I think is really necessary if you decide to go the full-fender route on a bike...

 

The MAFAC "Racer" brake pads on this bike are all moved to the upper (shortest) limits of the brake adjustment slots. In fact, the front brake caliper is not well suited to these wheels at all. The pads must approach the rim at an awkward angle. The correct size 700c rims for sew-up (aka: sprint or tubular) tires intended for this bike would be 4 mm. shorter in radius and this would allow a slightly better fit but would still be pushing the limits of these brakes. Mafac "Competition" calipers from this era may have allowed a very slightly shorter reach... maybe some day. Until then, I'll just continue to eat up inexpensive replacement brake pads with uneven wear. These brakes work well enough, anyway.

 

I suppose I really "Should" finally build up a better wheelset for this bike. I do have a perfect set of Normandy "Luxe Competition" hubs and Robergel French spokes which would be perfect - and in fact "correct" for the bike. But, I'm still reluctant to commit to tubular rims which would be ideal. ... Always so many options and minor decisions to make for any bike.

Fidget looks out across the pastures at a pair of whitetail yearlings grazing 200 yards away.

 

It's nothing to get revved up about, but you have to keep an eye on them.

 

What you're seeing here is called the "Pyrenean Expression", an alert, contemplative gaze into the far distance. It's a breed characteristic and a sight I never tire of seeing.

Fidget and Cooter got Lyme disease this winter. We reasoned incorrectly that dogs who run in enclosed, deer-proof paddocks didn't need winter flea and tick treatments. Reducing their long-term pesticide load seemed like a healthy thing to do, but we were wrong.

 

Both are doing well with treatment. The moral of this story is that dogs who live in Lyme areas need flea and tick treatment year-round.

 

Lyme incidence is increasing worldwide. It's in Europe, Africa, Australia and elsewhere. I couldn't find a recent world Lyme map to post. It's best to check with your vet and local health authorities in any case.

 

Another TY surplus due to lack of space & funds.

All critters store in water/air tight storage from day of purchase, so, NEW.

Our Star Magnolia bloomed three weeks later than usual, but spring has finally arrived.

 

We got a lot done in the last month, and I'm glad to be back on Flickr. I'll visit your pages over the next few days.

Fidgeting is one of the new ways to relieve from stress for kids and also for adults. Here are some cool ways to make use of the fidget spinner.

“But I can hardly sit still. I keep fidgeting, crossing one leg and then the other. I feel like I could throw off sparks, or break a window--maybe rearrange all the furniture.” ―Raymond Carver, Where I'm Calling From: New and Selected Stories

We'll dig a hole any old time, but this time of year we like to dig them deeper.

 

Mouse came down from the pasture and did some work on Fidget's project, enlarging it toward the west, turning the perfect circle into a ragged kidney shape.

 

After Mouse left for the day, Fidget carefully nudged the mousebegotten dirt pile back into her hole and smoothed grass over it.

 

She rested on the disturbed earth for awhile, then dug again according to her original plan.

 

A person has a particular vision of the perfect hole, and it doesn't do to let others (particularly relatives) become involved.

Fidget dozing in the late afternoon inside her thick winter ruff. It's time to start currying her, a process that takes a couple of months.

 

This one holds up fairly well viewed LARGE. Pyrs are "plain white dogs", but they have intricate patterns in their coats.
