Did something called a 700c conversion two days ago on my ~80s Schwinn with the help of Community Cycling Center and their tools / work benches and couldn’t be happier.
Highly recommend, I wandered in saying “I think my bike needs to be changed?” and they walked me right through everything and sold me all the parts at a discount / found used stuff for me to repurpose.
Mechanic helping me let me do everything, and explained it at a level that was very accessible.
“This isn’t a bike road!”, is maybe one of the funniest things someone in a car has ever yelled at me.

@chriskirknielsen Throwing in a vote of agreement for you to write about VentoJS, I'd love to hear your experience using it with 11ty +++
There is a band that practices within earshot of our rental and when our windows are closed every song of theirs sounds like, “Where is my mind?”
Played the first hour or so of this game this morning and really enjoyed it!
Extracted value, like a tooth.
