DoomSled Breathes
On the Ides of March, in the year of our Lord 2006, forged in the fires of the north was born DoomSled...
Okay, enough Tolkien. But seriously, I just got word that my frame was finished. In fact, the guy finished it on the 15th. That was really something: all this talk about doom and the Ides of March it fits pretty well.
So the it should be here by next week this time :) Once here I'll assemble the bike and start test riding before I paint it. I'm thinking 50 miles will do it.
I think I'm still gonna paint it army green. Also, I'll make the hammock forest green, and probably make the tarp camouflage.

I used to go for the camaflage look when camping, myself. When I got lost in the woods, I changed my thinking. Now, I go for bright, highly visible colors, like blaze orange.
