Road frame. Too big for me, paging Dr. Benway.

I had my eye on this as well - nice ride and would fit me pretty well as far as I can tell!

LOL black lung!!!!!!:p !! Ugh. I'm dizzy. Stupid pollution.

somnambulant 06-27-07 12:34 PM

I was following a guy yesterday on my way in wearing one of those pollution masks... at times like these I feel like I should try one of those!

Yay for the upcoming cooler weather.

Customer enters shop asking for help with his integrated headset. Headset is shot..sell him replacement. Thanks me and leaves shop. Comes back 2 minutes later bearing his Redbull rep card and a free case of Redbull. Keith has shaky hands all of a sudden.

Keith, have you learned nothing from your Imac experience? Bike comes in, blame customer, suggest that you'll look it later if he's lucky, and profit. :rolleyes:

This whole helping the customer thing.... it just doesn't compute!

operator 06-27-07 01:19 PM

Haha!

LAWL. yeah..usually the surliness and indifference thing is my hallmark. On occasion I feel the need to actually...you know...be helpful. Its all in the timing.

i gave mine away because i felt like i was going to pass out from trying to suck enough air through to breathe at any sort of decent pace.

I've often wondered about these masks in that regard.

That reminds me ....where the hell is my case?

zippered 06-27-07 01:53 PM

not to mention the days that you need them the most are the hottest and therefore least pleasant to have neoprene or whatever they're made out of covering half your face!

(ha ha that rhymes with my previous post)

operator 06-27-07 02:02 PM

I drank redbull the other day. Doesn't seem any different than any other soft drink. Besides the ridiculous price you pay for it of course. And the fact that people like to mix it with vodka for some odd reason.

TRaffic Jammer 06-27-07 02:07 PM

it definitely gives me the jump.... not the average soft drink to my body

Takeru Kobayashi of Japan, the hot-dog eating champ of New York City's Coney Island, has been diagnosed with arthritis of the jaw.

First Paris goes to Jail, now this... it put's life into perspective.
