Good to know, think I'll buy some new brakes!
I fell off my bike again yesterday. Went out with my group and was feeling better but was still a little shaky...ended up going over some tracks at a bad angle and dropped my front wheel in one them and down I went again. This time I ended up with a dented helmet and a dislocated clavicle. It hurts and oxy doesn't nothing for me. Guess I should probably take up running.

Oh yeah, Mr IGH, who told me in Touring that I had no experience with dynohubs. I didn't correct him that I've used dynohubs for well over a decade and we currently have more than five in the household, SON and Shimano. It just wasn't worth the aggravation.

+100 Disagreeing with most BF folks just isn't worth the effort. I get no reward just being right.

Picked up a Romin Evo on the way home last night. Forecast this week is pretty rainy, but I'll probably get out on Friday to check it out. It passed the sit on it in the house with dress pants on test, but that is not the most accurate test.
I'm pretty excited since I've been riding the last 4,000 miles or so on a seat that is a little too narrow for my sit bones according to the ol' butt-o-meter.

Which will get locked first?
I'm going with "Funny Story". The OP may also get a vacation. He is being rather belligerent.

Possibly. I made a minor contribution, but really need to stay out of the 41 whenever possible.

Was given a container of all natural gluten free organic non-GMO honey. What should I do with it? Honey isn't something that is usually in my kitchen.

Try it instead of sugar? In your tea/coffee? On your cereal? No rush, honey has a very long shelf life.

After a harder ride, I like to throw a handful of misc frozen fruit in the blender with a little milk, a splash of OJ, a spoonful of greek yogurt, and dollop of honey. Mmm mmm good.

You should start a thread about this. Make sure that you include a question about disc brakes, riding without a shirt/jersey and tubeless tires.
