Day one for my challenge started today!
So, this was hard! This thing, (TREK 3900) Since 2007, has NEVER been put up in storage!!!!

After an early AM pedal swap & spiffy tune, I borrowed the wife’s old Raleigh Technium.

The chain was definitely dry and had a few spots of light surface rust on it. -the closest petroleum based product I could find during my tuneup was marvel mystery oil, which I promptly put on the chain and dag-gum! It worked great!!!!
I did my Regular Saturday morning 20 mile ride.
So uh.... after riding a 39 pound bike pretty much exclusively the past 13 years, this little rocket was quite the experience!!!!!
Two words for ya; Rolling Resistance
Holy moly! Thing made my ride cake!!!
Next up; Huffy Time!!!!!
