Beyond that, isn't an aluminum track bike a little on the stiff side and not as comfortable to ride for long periods as something made out of steel? Just curious...
+1

Definitely infinitely better than the Cinelli graphics though...

Whoa that's nuts! I bet he can't reach the drops on that badboy! I think he should put some bullhorns on there that would look awesome/more in keeping with the whole pursuit geometry thing. Hell maybe even some aero bars. He could do circuits at the Ex or something.

My daughter was asked by a BOY from school. "Where the red dot goes......."
Turns out they're buddies and collectively giggled at the thought of it being a date.

Yikes! I guess they didn't kill whatever they made your wallet with first!

As for the tickets I'm not sure ask Ryan I'm getting an extra from him.

I used to do lessons out Northwest somewhere... I think trafalgar road area. I'm not sure if they do trail rides too, but let me know if you'd rather head that way and I'll see if I can track down the name of the stables.

Bikes are more fun 'cause they don't think for themselves!

Sec 202, Row O, Seats 33 & 34

Apparently they literally just played on a street corner here in the city. Yesterday it was a Winnipeg city bus. I've seen thema few times and had the pleasure of working with them before and I can honestly say, whether you like the music or not, they're real musicians... as in about the actual music.

See you there chumly.

Ps. HAPPY B-DAY Dan-O!
