VT Car Care

Enjoyed a great 45 mile ride this afternoon – 50% of which was on some lovely dirt roads traversing Essex and Westford. I rode the IF with 28mm tires. I’ve found a sweet spot with the Continental GP 4 Season tires for riding on pavement – I’ll need to experiment more when riding on the dirt.

I came across these fellows somehwere in Essex who were busily working on what looked like their latest project. I’m not sure if OSHA would approve – but it looks like they ran the forks under the roof and picked the car up to work on its underside. They didn’t notice me stopping to take the pic – each busy at his own task – apparent that they may have done this before. Just off the road out front were 4 VWs – 3 Jettas and 1 Golf. Parked near the front door were 2 crotch rockets.
