no idea. doors are at 9:00 I think. I'm hoping to make it after rock-practice.

Holy Crap those freewheel backwards circles are amazing!

That would be cool. I may spin by after. B4 you go, check out Spector's "cardboard grates" show at Resistor Gallery (NW college and spadina) www.specterart.com Fri. 7-? free. I'll be working the bar.

Anyone see this stinky bike?

critical mass tomorrow...

i think you may be the first person to describe a band as "mathy". i know i proposed a ride today but it's been a busy week. don't think i even have time for a ride tomorrow.

If I'm not working I might drop by for the ride and some Sneaky Dees or dumplings after.

i was riding back from a job interview tonight and spied a hunter green lugged fixie with pink deep-vs, risers etc. locked up outside the Swan on queen; quite a nice build. anyone we know?

New job soon?

looks that way. no more brunch for me!

Huh, weird, I saw that too. It is that Giant track frame; the Bowery, I think it is called?

Some hot girl rides that

MATHCORE! Pullin time signatures out of a bag! I just can't keep up.

Anyone have a sweet front brake they want to sell me? Foo? My cheapie is pooched. PM me. I talked to Polly (recycle) and he told me that his new website was going to have bike interviews with "amature pornstars and cult musicians". Can't wait!

LOL...

Giant making a lugged track frame? Come on...

just got home early from my roundtrip bike tour to manitoulin island... made it so far as to circle the island and back to tobermory, before i realized we had slept in an enormous patch of poison ivy the night before, and now i was being eaten alive. called it in, boyfriend came to pick me up... feeling pretty depressed right now for not finishing. in total, covered about 500km over 5 days. but. now i am going to climb hills like a monster.

Oops, didn't notice that he said it was lugged, I guess I didn't get a close enough look at it. It was a really similar colour to the army-green bowery that I have seen around.

canice, I wouldn't feel too bad, a metric century every day for 5 days is very impressive. What type of bike were you on?

trek 1000. borrowed, no less. thank god for triples. before the trip i was actually considering jerry-rigging my current ride (urbanite) into an 8-speed.

Yeah that's Emery's bike. She's a courier. Super nice girl and she can haul ass too. She's at QMS so she used to work with Toby.

she goes to ryerson. i flyer for the campus bike club and always hit hers. used to have a pink frame instead, i think i liked that a lot better.

Like Jet Sanchez says, I wouldn't feel too bad about it. Having to duck out due to forces beyond your control is a bummer but you know that you did the 5 days as planned so the next 3 probably wouldn't have killed you.

I totally thought you were doing it fixed...

Ah the newly reaquired front wheel that got ripped off. How does one really think they can get away with a pink deep-v?

...then you wouldn't believe how often that term gets used in describing music.


I wish I was doing a longish tour/ride. I'd even like to do a lightweight overnighter some time.. anyone? anyone? bueller?

i'm crazy, not insane...

i would be up for doing a weekender tour, maybe even on a fixed.

Rob and I have been talking about doing Niagara Falls fixed this summer - just shy of 200k one way... We'll see, though, after about 50k my legs and lungs are fine but my ass is another story...

I thought Niagara was ~100mi? Or is this a significantly different route?
