Wheels of Happiness
Rizal Philippines | September 15, 2014
Last week, Pres Luis announced that we will ride yesterday September 14, 2014 to Caliraya via Cavinti. Yesterday, typhoon Luis poured torrential rains early morning, preventing us from the ride. That was Luis vs Luis ha haha.
So I tried to venture out when the skies cleared. But very soon the skies darkened again. And rain started to fall again. So much for mans power overcoming nature.
I had some of the interior tubes vulcanized too. Having vulcanizing shops do the repairs is more durable than the dry type of patches.
I spent the first half of the day cleaning the bike. There was so much grime on my GTS. The derailleur required intensive cleaning. I had to dismantle and clean the bottom bracket too which had been squeaking. There was a lot dirt
By next week, September 21, rain rain go away. What will be the name of the next typhoon anyway?
