oh yeah, i cannot forget to sent a shout to samhouston (you still riding with the mess or just doing undertheweather??)...you may guess, it's 323 that went to teach english in the land of the rising sun.
everyone, take it easy and keep the rubberside down!
Hey man! Sounds lovely there! I'll be hitting that part of the world nov-decish for a month this year, if your still there we'll hook up!
I'm still with the mess, but on foot the past 3 months due to a knee. I'll be back in the saddle in a week or two but with a freewheel which will be standard isue for me now unless on a velodrome. Can't slow down without likely blowing it again, sure as hell can't skid w/out blowing it and I was trying to use my front brake since it was originally injured in 2002, I just can't seem to use it every single time I mean really!
So they keep you busy over there?
