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)

They sound pretty good, got details on the show?

I am excited to be buying tickets for Circa Survive, Rival Sons and French Style Furs this week.

Oct 12, Webster Hall. It'll sell out soon I'm assuming. First show sold out in less than 7 minutes, 2nd show sold out same day.

Where are you seeing Circa Survive? You couldn't pay me to go see them at Skate and Surf. I've seen them twice, they put on a great live show.

Mapped out all the drum corps shows I have this summer because I couldn't study for finals anymore.
If there's one near you, check us out!

I have 4 more credits to get my Business Degree. Once it is finalized I will begin to look for jobs in Southern California (San Diego).
If anyone has a hook up in the Power Industry in California please let me know.

He said warranty, which does not cover shipping damage, so it sounds like something is seriously wrong with it. Of course, he's not going to tell us, so we have to play 20 questions to find out.

All you need is a shoe in the door to get a job @ sempra down here...
If you can't get in there directly; try indirectly thru working for a white collar contractor and talk around and network while you're at sempra.

Missing rear rack braze-on, bent drive-side dropout, suspicious(porous) welds for the front disc brake mount. and I kinda need this bike rolling asap if I want to go on the upcoming brevet.

This makes it even less likely that I'll ever own a Surly frame/bike.

Slip ups happen and once in a while one gets by QC. Surly's pretty good about warranties with their frames and forks.
