No rush - we'll be at the ride next Sunday, I can wait - hope you're healing up well.

Re: drivetrain stuff, FWIW I run a 1/8" chain on my 3/32" cog/chainring setup and have had no problems whatsoever. I've got the stock IRO cranks which are a 130BCD spider I believe. I figure as long as the chain is only going around those cogs and not a derailler or tensioner, I'm good. I'm at about 1180-1200kms on the 1/8" chain so far with one cleaning.

edit: Anyone else going to the Record breaking thing at Yonge/Dundas tomorrow? 1,000 bikes with bells I believe is the target, I'm probably going to head over, should be fun - that's at 12. Then there's Bells on Bloor which I'll probably go to as well, that's Sunday starting at Bloor/High Park at 12.
