Hi this is Super Vegan calling in from Flagg Ranch, WY. Its Sunday, June 22nd 3:49pm. Yesterday, I crossed over into ID at 5pm. Had a little bit of a head wind in the morning and a little bit in the afternoon. At about 7pm, I decided to go ahead and do the length of the old rail bed trail which was very dusty and slow going. About half-way through it I was experiencing some stiffness with the crank. I guess the crank is not sealed as they say it is. Anyway, I guess going through creeks and washing the bike and going through a lot of dusty trails almost seized the crank. I put a bunch of oil in there and its seems to be working smooth now. But a couple of times on that trail, my crank kind of seized in. Felt like some sand or something was in there, in the bottom bracket. Anyway, crossed over into WY this morning and was greeted by rain, snow, mud and lots of bumpy, raggedy asX roads. Quite a welcome. Anyway, I'm going to head and see how far I get today. I wish everyone lots of luck. Love, Bye.
