Road Bike Parts

Martin Mazza, town councillor and member of the Niagara-on-the-Lake Community Policing Committee, is once again collecting bicycles and bike parts for the upcoming farm workers' bike rodeo.

Every spring for the last 15 years the committee has hosted a bike safety event at the Virgil arena, organized to help farm workers from the Caribbean and Mexico become familiar with the local rules of the road.

One thing you will learn about me is that i LOVE to use a title or phrase that have a fun ring to it. Usually starting with the same letter. What do you call that again? I have to google it when my wireless gets stronger.

Its 7:30 and I am on the front porch of the house in Maine. The sun has set a sparkle to the water and warms my foot and shoulder – the only parts not shaded by the pillar (lets me see the screen better). The breeze blows a crisp coolness across the porch leaving me to figure out if I am hot or cold –or in this case both at the same time. It is delicious. Today is our last full day on Mount Desert Island. We will be back I am sure of it. We wont be coming back to this house though and my heart is starting to feel the cracks of sadness that have been there all week I am over all joyful and thankful for this gift of a week. After 50+ years, the house will sell this summer. It will go to another family who will create new traditions. I believe they will love the house like we always have so I am ok with that part. I mourn not sitting in my space though. So many of the memories I have here are solitary. I lived up here alone or with grandma for that summer before going off to Switzerland. MY room has always been Alice’s room or Daddy’s room so it gets complicated when people start coming here when I am here cause I get a little possesive.

I understand the Shimano road bike "parts classification is 105, Ultegra and Dura Ace. Where are the other manufacturers in this context?

The other person who responded neglected Campagnolo.

Is there a site or company that would sell parts for an old Huffy road bike?

What you call "old"? It should be a date stamp on the frame somewhere (eg May 1984 would be 5-84).
