Due to personal and family circumstances, I haven't done much internetting except when I have to google some software development questions. I am surprised this thread is still here active on the front page as if time never moves on BF. I have been off the net that my wife and children maintained my facebook to play farmville and I have amassed 80 more friends mostly for farmvilling -- Nice to see that you are now at 40K posts PCAD.

I have kept up pedaling though and thanks to WR's advice improved my FTP some. I am building up a Surly cargo bike (Big Dummy) and will attempt to set it up with some older SRM cranks! Will post pics when it is done. My friend LFOAB who was in the Feb issue of bicycling magazine turned me on to it but it is taking a while to get everything together

No new schwagg whatsoever except for a used Kreitler roller and when done the Surly. Yeah I would tap an Addict. I would like one with those mega-size stems
