Just this last week, I received the last accessory piece for the best bike on the planet:


Bluetiful






Bicycle - 2008 Sun EZ Sport CX
Pedals – Shimano PD-A530 Multipurpose SPD






Rear Accessories

Rear Rack – Zéfal
Panniers – Jandd Economy
Rack Bag – Jandd Rack Pack II
Bottle Cages – Standard on right, Bontrager Insulated Cage on left
Tumbler – Starbucks Miller Gentlemen Tumbler
Pump – Serfas Big Stick mini pump
Seat Bag – Sunlite Tubular
Taillights – Serfas, Blackburn Mars 1.0, Blackburn Mars 3.0










Front Accessories

Headlight – Blackburn Voyager 3.3
Handlebar Bag - Mountain Handle Pack I
Computer – Specialized SpeedZone Analog
GPS – Garmin eTrex Legend w/Garmin handlebar mount
Bottle Cage: Standard on right


The handlebar mount for the Garmin was the last accessory piece I was waiting for, here's a closeup of the completed dashboard:





You can see how nicely the straps for the Jandd handlebar bag fit between the bolts for the bottle cage mounts and hold the bag up at just the right height.

I have relished the six hours I have spent riding around this weekend on my favorite bike.

B.C. Nice looking bike. It's a good thing that was the last accessory because if you were to add anything else you would need another. A hub motor. rolling on the floor

Now, now, she ain't THAT heavy! 'Course ... you just may have an idea there: been tryin' to figure out how to get the 120V to run the microwave!

Oops, corrected it to "120V" from "120 A" but, wait a minute, a 120 amp service would allow me to run all my Internet servers ... Lemme see: gonna need a trailer, a bunch of broadband internet cards and for the console a flat panel screen small enough to fit between the handlebars.

I already got the wireless keyboard and mouse, the challenge will be signaling turns and logging in at the same time, but, hey, it ain't like I'm TEXTING while DRIVING, eh?
