If you idiots are actually going to be there, I may have to show up and crush you with my mighty Pcad guads. That would be flipping Freds. I can race free, it's my club.

Man that kid is friggin fast. He's only 20. Imagine how fast he'll be when he's 25 or 26. That's a scary thought.
True. But just imagine how slow he'll be at say, 52...

Who's in charge of the NCAAF? Someone should tell Alabama and Ohio State to mellow out. No need to rack up that many points! If you've got the game well in hand, then don't risk injury with needless offense. That's what I think anyway.

Heck, let the other team score a few points and rest your defense as well.

I was told the other team was paid to take a beating. Not that they throw the game, but that's how the out of conference games work... or something like that. I don't understand it, but heard yesterday that the losing team got a crapload of cash out of it. Wait, that still sounds hinkey... I can't explain it right.

As far as the bars go, they can be cut shorter. If the bar is curved, changing to a straight bar would be the way to go. Stems can be changed at will. They are wide for better steering control. For a general idea of fit, take a look at Competitive Cyclist

Blame the BCS for that too, the computers use margin of victory when they calculate your ranking, so it's to your advantage to score 200* if you can.

Aren't you 18? I'm 17 bro, that's one year. You're a freshman in college I'm a hs senior. Either way, thanks. And you still didn't explain why you were jumping over a bush.
