Ugh, bought a car today.

On a completely unrelated note, I found a decent 700 rear wheel last night, matrix rim I think with shimano hub. Seems to be inperfect shape, needs a cassette freehub now, but anyone want it? Going to Bike Pirates on Sat otherwise.

You know it. I delivered myself and all the awesomeness therewith.

Odd, I found a gold Schwinn in the garbage tonight, people throw out the strangest things!

If that wheel isn't spoken for already, I can use it. PM me if that is cool, thanks!

Pyze, I may have some car junk. The ex is dropping of a few bins: jack stands, timing gun and a few other things if you want. I'll let you know what's here tomorrow. If anyone wants some largish rubbermaid roughtotes, let me know. I have about a half dozen or so to give away.

I remember coming back on the local tin can air from the Bahamas with a girl who got run off the road. One side of her body was a huge bruised road rash... on her honeymoon. New husband must have been baying at the moon. Yes, bikes + islands=road kill.

And one bubble was missed:

Shurely Roger wants full productivity out of his wrenches so get him to put a kit on the floor and be done with it.
Out of curiousity..how much did the Mastercraft digital verniers cost ya?They look exactly like my no-name calipers.

They were tirtyfo ninenine. I am sure that they are exaxtly the same too, we have another unbranded one in the shop that is.

HAHAHA oh Roger....

Now that I am at the downtown shop I don't have to see him as often. errr get to see his lovely face?..
ahah

Sometimes he can be too much.

Day one... zero tools missing :)

Oh dude... that was me that offered you tools on Yonge St, just south of College.

Man those trimmed down risers FTW! So much fun. And all it costs is looking a bit like a Mash *****. I guess I'll need to get the official Mash Phil hub and white cog now... ;) Or, not.

Nice meeting you. I need to get a crank that the chain ring won't potentially shear off of :eek: A little paranoid about it happenng. Still testing out the waters.

Does Toby's hat seriously match his rims? If so, I really need to *ahem* step my game up.

somnambulant 05-30-07 07:11 AM

anyone up for a mtn bike ride in the Don tonight? I'll likely be heading there for around 6:30 or 7:00. If there's any interest I'll post a more accurate time later this afternoon.

somnambulant 05-30-07 07:15 AM

No idea if anyone here would have this kind of info, but does anyone have a favorite source for piercing jewelry? I need new plugs, and I just want plain black acrylic, but I can't seem to find any locally. Plus every piercing website I've been on looks like it was set up by a 14 year old in 1998... doesn't really instill e-commerce confidence. :)
