Lou, great shoes...... Thought I would give these lace up riding shoes a shot because I am getting tired of wearing my SWAT boots for riding all the time.
Got 300 in today. Beautiful day but a little windy.
Stock seat wasn't cutting it after about the first 200. Anyone here have experience with the HD Hammock seat? A clean one is for sale here locally.

What brand are they, Stan?

Those are called V brakes. No clue why. But you're right, it does.

Bob, You're doing a great job in that bike. Your attention to detail and care you've taken is paying off.
