Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

The sad part is that I know that. I haven't seen him in like 6 months, and he said he had changed or whatever. Tonight proved me wrong.

Today my messenger bag was pissed on and then stolen. Really mad. (insert emo rant about humanity, *****es and how curiously dry the area below my abdomen is.)

Wow dude, I'm sorry to hear that you lost all those valuables. If you ever find the dude, save a left hook to the face for me.

How do you know it was pissed on if it was stolen?

Sorry for your loss.

Today I used my MW Rambler for the first time, man is day and night compared to my old backpack. I stuffed a change of clothes, second pair of shoes, all my bike doodads (pump, tools, lock, tube) and gizmos and it's still slim and easy to carry. Best birthday gift!

Today I revived a chainsaw that has not been started for 5 years. Then went to the pumptrack.

Roadride tomorrow.

That's great news Avner!

Today's highlight was I spent a little over 2 hours in the la jolla apple store waiting on the genius bar during the monday lunch time rush which was quite backlogged with seniors trying to figure how to use a mac/ who shouldn't be near a computer after doing something stupid to their mac; worse was I didn't have an appointment either.
This began in the morning when I noticed my laptop was replaced by a mac book pro with a note from the mrs. ending with XOXO. The third time this year so far; for the exact same reason, a dead logic board as the genius diagnosed and snicked with his coworker after seeing the service record for the machine and its much better than average specs.
This macbook has been nothing but trouble since the day they built it for her; it was delayed 2 weeks because of the upgrades we paid extra for. Definitely buying the 2 year applecare extension.
You would expect more when you pay the premium for it.
