Just trying to jot down what needs to be done before I can ride.
- Replace tires and tubes
- Maint tune-up: grease cables, true wheels, etc.
- Replace computer... if it even has one
- Buy a helmet
- Buy skins
- Buy gloves
Performance is having a sale on Continental Gatorskin puncture-resistant tires.
I'm sure they're heavier than a standard tire, but I'd imagine it's about comprable
to a standard tire with a Mr. Tuffy strip inserted.
I just assembled a shopping cart from Performance... basically $300 in goods.
The tune-up will probably cost another $150. Add tax, and I'm about $500 before
my butt even gets on that saddle.
