Okay, I'm back for round two.

This is a tough one and I'll back it with some brief history for those who may not know why I ride Leaders. As some of you may know, Leader approached me to design some shirts for them a while back and through that agreement, they hooked us up with some free stuff. I was impressed - not only by the frames we received but also by how chill they are and how easy it was to work with them. As we began dealing with them more and developing actual friendships, I quickly realized that they really are a good company with great customer service who are really making every effort to get out from the bad rep they once had and have the product to back it. Walking like you talk it has always been an important quality in my eyes. As one who always tends to be somewhat supportive of the "underdog", I see Leader for what they are and have respect for what they're doing. Honestly, if I thought their products were crap and everyone who worked there treated us like ********, I simply wouldn't ride their frames - free or not.

That being said and getting back to hammy's question, I think my steel bike would be a Bareknuckle or Godzilla. My aluminum bike would most likely be a Dodici Gara (although the 2012 model doesn't do as much for me as last year's) or a Livery Aluminum Aero - or both.

Different, yes. Better, no.

Boxers (or commando in the summer) when I'm off the bike, boxer briefs or seamless compression shorts when I'm riding - unless it's a long ride, then I'm rocking Pearl Izumi liners beneath my shorts.

from 1977:



Check out that fresh collar!

****, I'll be here all day. The book will come out someday.

My dreads are zero effort. I literally just stopped brushing it.

Uh, yes.

I reviewed all the stickies and they all have good reason to stay stuck. If anyone feels differently, let me know.

Does that have something to do with deapthroating a bratwurst?

I'll be back in a bit.
