For Mother's Day you should set up an elaborate gag gift, a 10 day RV road trip. Just the wife and kids, while you stay home and finish up the odds and ends of the renovation.
"New" (to me) bike day. Today I finished putting together my new ride, Pivot Trail 429. Huge thanks to @jdog for an awesome deal on the demo frame and fork, and another awesome deal on a majority of the remaining components to put it together.
Thanks, lots of good suggestions here! I was at Halters today but didn't have time to extend my trip to Princeton. I will pop into the Somerville shop tomorrow night and expand from there.
