Friday, December 25, 2020 -- Christmas Day -- Manhattan Beach Pier

The bike path was crowded and so was the pier area...






 

The "strawberry" tree -- Trimming - part 1

The "strawberry" tree, before some trimming.


Trimmed some of the right hand side of the tree.
(hard to tell because of the tree in the back yard being in the picture)


The area in the green box is where the tree has been trimmed so far.

Also, a "before" trimming picture taken a few days ago.

Similar angle picture of "after" the initial trimming.

The green dotted line is about how much more I plan to trim...

 

Deserts -- after dinner...


Home made cookies...


 

Replacing the rear cassette on the Cannondale -- part 3 -- Installing the cassette on the rear wheel

Applied some grease on the new lock-ring's threads.


Using the special tool to install the lock-ring.


After installation.
Ready to go.


The skewer is very dirty and covered in sand.
This is the lever end.
Need to clean...


This is the "nut" end of the skewer assembly.
There's dirt/grease/sand on the nut and the springs.


After cleaning all the parts of the skewer.


Applied grease before installation.
