Their less than stellar response to my queries about a $3500 frame also support the ABG sux theory. They can bite me.

I am moving on. It is both unfortunate and lucky for me that the 2010 S2's do not come in black.

First video with the Christmas camera. It appears that my legs have no bones and that a bicycle can be propelled by an odd dancing motion.

Are your legs on the pedals or are you just flopping them around?

Which camera did you get? My wife gave me the GoPro 960...I'm debating on whether to return it or not. I already have the Drift170...

It's a Contour HD. I am still sorting stuff out with it (my current memory chip seems to only handle up to 780p), but I like how it mounts and it has a decent waterproof thingy for the Acat.

It is a new technology. Very secret, very fast. Porsche uses the boxer configuration right.... visualize rotor cranks mounted at 90 degrees.

In the fall deer are a constant concern on group rides. it is common to call out "deer". They took out a ride this year, but only a few went down. One guy had a hoof bruise from a deer that jumped over him.

If you had seen our special teams the last few seasons, you wouldn't be surprised.

You're the pro, so I'll defer to you, but it sounds OK to me either way. What can I say, she's Finnish. Maybe that explains it.
