Another ride on the Long Haul Trucker
Thursday, August 7th, 2008I don’t have time to say much right now, as we’re about to head up to Chicago, then Green Bay for a friend’s wedding. But a few more comments on the Trucker, and a few photos.
We (Sarah did most of the work) removed the decals from the bike and it looks sleeker and better than before. This was a long process involving a hair dryer, plastic knife, and citrus cleaner.
I’m getting used to the bar-end shifters, but still don’t have the fit quite dialed in. That’s a long, slow process, but I really am enjoying the bike. It was so smooth on my ride last night.

Is there a tour in your future? A long tour?

nice bike but the pics may be better. i’m intrigued by the sticker-off project. I wouldn’t have thought to do that, but it’s a nice personalizing touch.

That is one sweet-looking bike, especially with no decals.
