The big one is half worn through. Just swapped it with something better for wet weather last Fall. Feel free to make me feel bad about not exacting full value out of the far right pad.

Jeebuz, my pads usually are full of chunks of aluminum or gravel before they get that bad. I’m proud to say I only have one rim brake bike left.

And I keep going for rides and not sorting through boxes again...

Winter/rain bike is not in good shape this time of year. You don’t want to know how bad of shape the shoes are in, shameful.

*rides around without brakes often as not*
but tbh....ive never been able to get those pads to wear evenly... so mine usually looked like that when i swapped em too
(granted that might be after 2 or 3 months of just disconnecting the not working brake and riding with just the front/rear brake)

No worries, if you still seemed to have forgo t next Friday I might have considered asking.
That looks like a very pleasant 23 miles of riding.

The rear brake rusted off 3 years ago. Front appeared to be limping into the homestretch at that point too. If I was willing to bring more focus on the full picture I think you’d enjoy it.

It was a great show, pretty nuts at the end. He previous show Six Feet Under is pretty good too.

I watched it about halfway through years ago and am just a couple episodes from the end right now
