    SWB0 CobblestoneRat - Done, but still getting little upgrades... ;-)

Yesterday I had big trouble shifting and when I checked I saw that the little shifting chain had rubbed...

    UNLIMITED Stacey’s Mom aka the Tall-Goose

    Subscribed! I have this instructable in my favorites list since forever! Great to finally watch someone building it. If somewhere in the future I have access to a good workshop with grinder and welding equipment, I'll try my shot at it as well, but until then I'll watch this one closely!

    Took The Wolverine for another 40 km early Sunday morning spin to the Grunewald sandpit and back. About two thirds on (rough Berlin) asphalt and one third light gravel. It was fun. Having coffee and breakfast now and heading to the garden later to enjoy this beautiful sunny day...

    "铁猪 - Iron Pig"

    The IronPig still had his spiked tires on and as I was servicing the CobblestoneRat I also swapped the tires of the pig... It runs on standard Marathons now for the summer.

Today on the last 100 meters before reaching my home, there was all of a sudden a...
