awww.. I was just sitting at home bored last night at 9:30. I gotta check it here more often, apparently.
See you guys at 1:30 at Moonbean. Rob: I'll have your crank bolt jobby with me. If you favor relates to CK parts, I probably can't help you. She's getting these things under the guise of them being for herself, and she's already picked up two in the last 6 weeks. :) |
Alright time to fly down yonge st, need to pick up a cone wrench and some ball bearings.
|
Those beer cups were insane. They looked like chinese take-out containers. Thanks for the ride, you guys, I had a blast.
|
Consarnit, I didn't get that crank bolt thinger from you!!!@!@
And why is the shimano lockring tool $5, and the campy one $28? |
And I neglected to read operator's post and subsequently forgot to "spring forward"
|
I'm making the face like your avatar at the moment.
Check out www.probikekit.com wicked deals, free shipping to canada as well. |
operator: ugh. I know! I realized about 5 minutes after we split. I wound up going for a ride around high-park... it was too nice to go directly home. :)
I can't believe the one year anniversary of this thread was just the three of us. You people are all lame! ;) |
Lucky we had coffee in the market, not Yonge & Bloor a bomb went off in a Tim Hortons bathroom 1 dead. Crazy stuff.
|
yeah, I just saw that on the news. Pretty scary. Right near where I (and Jeremy W) work too.

Yeah, weird about the bomb in the Timmy Ho's. I just read the blurb on the stars page. |
Apparently it was a literal "suicide bombing" ... but who knows? Hopefully more info will come out in the news this week. The idea of a bomb going off a few blocks away from where my gf works is more than a bit unsettling to me.
PS. Cavit8, lemon/blueberry scone action was champion. |
First they said he was dead and had a few burns there was little fire at all and litte fire damage to the bathroom and now later they switch it to he died of severe burns from a small can of gasoline he took in with him ,makes ya wonder eh......................... X FILES ( TRUST NO ONE )
|
Soooooooooooo..............F@CK!
http://www.dropmachine.com/media/dat...m/DSCN2077.JPG I would like to take this opportunity to remind everybody to check their lockrings now. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR I SAID NOW?!?! I suck at bikes Andrew |

Haha! I knew my non-indulgence would lead to triumph. I am made of win and good!
Edit: that really sucks. I guess you'll have to ride on the freewheel side of the ENO till you get a replacement? |
heh.. I'm so glad that I didn't do any damage when mine came loose. I really gotta get a lockring wrench.
|
I checked mine last night when I rebuilt my hub. Thanks, tho
|
I don't get it.

ctv news said the fire dept found a guy badly burned in the washroom holding a gerry can of gas. one can only imagine... |
Probably the guy was half corked wandered in to use the washroom after getting gas for his stalled car and lit a cigarette, forgetting he had a gas can between his feet. Only in Canada would a bomb-call draw a crowd.
Operator: you don't get it because you use gears, you naughty monkey. |
Has anyone taken the subway east into downtown? I did the other day and I always love looking out when we go over the DVP..... Has anyone ever noticed the deralict running track on the western edge of the valley? It seems accessable from the bike path, and with a little lovin' would make a great urban dirt track. I wonder who owns it?
Don't feel badly Operator, I'm a geared one as well so no lock ring nightmares....count yourself lucky....lol Cavit8 I LOVE your new av..... a little pupil dilation? So..... what goes on at these Crit Vacuum rides? Is this a fixie thang or are us gearies invited as well?:) Sounds like Jet's party was a blast..... didn't attempt to make it at all, I was having a lovely evening with my awesome lady, but I'm glad it sounds like you lot had a good time. |

It's a vary rare occasion that will find me in one of those places.

It's funny because it's a carbon-look chainstay protector. :) I actually have no problem with carbon either. Although carbon seatposts scare me for some reason.. I don't know why I think this for carbon only, but I just picture some big splintery broken seatpost aimed at my ass. Rectum. Damn near killed 'em. |

Anyone down for lunch tomorrow kensington afterwards? |
I'm kinda shy about carbon myself, it gets all explody when it fails and thats just not how I want a weight bearing component to go.
