What kind of bike? Was it being worked on?

And no, it's never finished.

Ya, I had a similar beater bike that I forgot about and left chained to a lamp post in East LA, when I got back, it was stripped and sitting on blocks. What a shame.

That's a pretty nice beater, LC. It must suck to have a Quarq on your beater. I was just thinking about buying the brakes I want for my good bike, so I can take the ones that are on it off, and put them on my Schwinn so I can have a SS again, that I just really won't care about. I kinda felt bad about the mess I made of my Trek this weekend, and cleaning, and re-lubing it was a long, and boring process. It's been in the upper 40's last few days, and there is still snow, and ice everywhere. It's all melting into the road, and mixing with the residual salt, and making a huge mess. I'm praying for rain the next few days. For now to the basement I go....

Razor, I support your right to wave, free from the threat of paint balls.
A local farm here makes their own cheese and yogurt.

Aren't you concerned about hitting the "bomb release button" by accident?.....

For the most part I only go after other grammar police so I'm more like the Grammar Internal Affairs or maybe Grammar Citizen Review Board.

Remember when Kramer took a vow of silence because he couldn't control his big mouth? I am starting my vow of silence, starting......now.
