A much-needed tune-up

I cleaned the chain, adjusted the handlebars, tightened all the nuts on the fenders, and fixed whatever was wrong with the gears (although I'm still not sure what was wrong, or how I fixed it).

Now my bike is in (almost) tip-top shape, which is excellent, given that it is my preferred form of transportation in this age of $3.00/gallon gasoline.

And it's keeping me in pretty good shape, too. There's a lot of hills in this city. Riding up them on a 3-speed is no joke.

Hopefully I won't wimp out come wintertime.
