A couple of updates.

First, my Sunday project is almost done. An unexpected hold-up has been the brakes. I've never run a U-brake before, so assumed that an Odyssey Slic-Kable (with straddle cable) would work fine with the Hombre caliper. Wrong!

Only one of the Hombre arms is open-ended, so it needs a hanger and bridging cable to work. Given that I don't know the working condition of the Hombre (or pads), I'm inclined to buy another caliper and use the new Odyssey cable with that. Will see what I can find. In the meantime, I'm continuing to hit up my local skate park on the Quamen. I'm going there once or twice a week and am still loving it!
