As soon as I get the front derailleur shim from calfee, Jeff and I are going to ride. I have 2 different bikes I haven't ridden yet after a crazy bike acquiring winter.
we do the peppermint oil and steel wool thing in our house, which used to regularly get invaded by field mice (we live in farm country, and are surrounded by corn). We went from 4-5 mice a week in traps to 1 every couple of months.
