It’s amazing how much you can get done when the OH and kids are staying with the gramps. Not even 9am and I’ve tightened all the spokes and trued both wheels on the Parkes, shortened the chain, repositioned the chainring and adjusted the brake.
Rough roads and speed bumps had clearly taken their toll. Thought I could feel the back end moving around a bit: two completely loose spokes and the rest all over the place. Amazingly, it was still running pretty true. It must have been really flapping about with weight on it.
