You all might have seen this before, but it nicely wraps up the trailer issue and the BBQ issue. Best of all the thing is street legal so the cops cant do anything to him during the cm rides. This guys has some decent videos on site, some alley cats and some illegal rides through the big dig in Boston.

Ch0mb0 and his crew from Brooklyn are crashing at my place, I am actually out of town, so if there is hains point action on Sunday, it would be nice if any of you would contact them or swing by my place and invite them. and it would be great if you can check that they did not burn the place down.

There are at a minimum 3 different lock-ring thread sizes that do not interchange with each other. What hub do you have that did not come with a lock ring?
Cog- EuroAsia- AKA "EAI" - Think I actually saw some last weekend at citybikes - I was amazed that they made them that big - you'll be amazed at the quality, they cost $34+

A teammate and I were coming back from Purcellville, and I think I saw a few of you in Herndon while we stopped to fill our bottles. Just wanted to say hello.

Hey new guy, feel free to shout out in person next time, and raise the level of awesome on the WOD. I'm still stewing about some jerk who yelled at me to get off the phone.

Ch0mb0, you guys are the perfect house guests, except for the pair of orange sox, and the thank you note that were left behind, I would never have known anyone was here.
