I am pleased to report that we had a very quiet, relaxing, domestic weekend, filled with typical domestic tasks like doing the laundry, making a huge amount of whipped cream and putting it on everything, and completely disassembling and overhauling a Sturmey-Archer three-speed internal gear hub.
Hendrik enjoying his third serving of whipped cream for the day.
Today I rode my own little bicycle to work and with the newly cleaned, greased, and replaced parts combined with my pride in having made the repairs myself, it felt like riding the wind.
The darkest hour (when I doubted getting it all back together again).
In case you want to see what taking one apart is like.
