I haven't been riding nearly enough, I have less than 2,000 miles in for the year. I have had some health issues over the past year which kept me off the bicycle quite a bit. We sold the salsa business shortly after my dad passed away. We just couldn't keep doing it without him (mentally).
I did get to ride this thing a good bit the past year.

is that a legit competition number on the front and a wera sticker on the tail?
also, mid-ohio is a fantastic track.

Dreidels never go out of style. I see my grandchildren enjoying them just as much as we did. Must be all that spinning...

Since you asked, and since I don't know which specific opinion is requested:
1. You should do the 60 min test because it will be the most accurate, and if you follow up four or five days later with a 20 minute test, you can exactly correlate the ratio between 20 minute testing and 60, and then never do another 60 min.
2. Addiction may be descending, but if it is, I see it happening at a rate 43% slower than the road forum is descending. So comparatively, they will get to hell well before us. I am still working the math on when they will pass the train that left Tokyo 6 hours ago at 180 kph.
3. I miss the Addicts that were here when I stumbled in, but that is much like specifying your favorite SNL cast. With out experiencing them all, it is hard to know which error was the best error.
5. I still think datlas's problem is in the pawls. And even if it isn't, pawls is a great word to say. It really does not see enough action in day to day parlance.
4. I think Whooshie's posts make his butt look big. And it is disturbing how badly he wants to see Hummie in a tri suit.
6. My tablet misarranged points 4. & 5. In my opinion, I could care less. I could care more. Entropy for the win. I'd like to solve the puzzle, Alec.

Gossamer was the name of the monster in the Bugs Bunny cartoons. It is not the name of a reputable crankset.

My commuter has a Full Speed Ahead crankset on it. Therefore, all FSA cranks are good, based on that fact.

I have an FSA headset. They didn't put enough grease in it but besides that it's been pretty solid for 13 years now.

Also, I think I need some Looney Tunes art on those cranks.

I think the K-Force was an offshoot of the A-Team.

Throw the stick!!!!
I sold the Honda a couple of months ago. Next year I will be on an 09 ZX6R. I won a free year of track days at Mid-Ohio so I plan on making the most of them.
Here is a photo of my two current bikes.
