Surely a Surly



I like my new Steamroller. Aptly named because that's how I feel when I ride. Yesterday trekked to Chanhassen, averaging around 15 mph which is good on an exploratory route. I like to ride Uncle Slurpy every day.


This bike is great inspiration for riding. Errands, anyone? Can I run to the store and pick something up? Or maybe deliver something for you on the way home from work? Heck, I could be a voluntary messenger for free. I already am for friends and family ;)

Note: The handlebars weren't adjusted quite yet. I keep them perked up quite a bit more than pictured.
