Well finally the server seems to be fixed. -- Spoke too soon.

HA HA
Cheers

Hurray! Bikeforums lives! So... anyone coming out to Critical Vacuum v.4 tomorrow night? Aaaanyone?

yeah i'll show up I think.... working late and in the area.
so 9:30 and where?.... I have the uncanny ability to mess up directions, I know where honest eds is... I'll just circle it. if you see a guy with blue lights on his helmet yell "tom"...

I Have to work tomorrow night so I don't think I'll be able to make it to CV.

I'll be there if I can somehow get off early, but don't wait for me...

I'll come mess around ... will I get heckled if I come on a bike with gears.

Edit: where is honest eds.

1. Yep, I almost like my gangsta limp though. People get out of your way you you come at them w/ a scowl and a ****ed up leg. ;)

2. There's definitely bumps in the works. To give you a sense of scale, in the profile photo of the track that bench is about a foot high.

The best way to get to that place is DEFINITELY not the way I used (ie. down an on ramp, wrong-way on an off ramp, sketch styles on the shoulder of Bayview Ave.). If you head around the school at the S/W corner of the Bloor bridge, there's a massive staircase leading down right to the track.

Operator: you will get heckled for not knowing where Honest Ed's is.

"Zounds! Tis beyond comprehension that thou hast not an inkling of direction in thy skull, to be ignorant of the shining fortress of bargains unmatched, gaudiness unabashed and floors most uneven. I shall say a thousand prayers for thee tonight that the lord might grant thee some semblance of a brain by morning. Perhaps then thou might forgeth a path to the legendary Critical Vacuum. But until that time comes, jeers, Operator, JEERS! I do fear that suburban living has made thee soft."

So basically Honest Ed's is at the corner of Bathurst and Bloor. The parking lot is to the south of it.

I will likely be on a geared bike too, since my ENO is EFFED. So I had to get my heckling in while I could.

*blows whistle* now goto the box for two minutes and feel shame. *points*

That was cool.

if i can get my lazy rear off the sofa in time i'll come out. i know where honest ed's is. where else you gonna buy and elvis bust, a garbage bin, and a turkey in one place? just follow those lights...

when i ride by there on the way to work every morning there is always a line of people waiting for the door crasher specials. how cheap can spaghetti be?

You would be amazed my friend. For people on a budget that place is ....... I can't even find the word.
Even if just to look around you gotta check it out, there is reason it's world famous.

I will NOT be attending this evening, I gots family stuff. Have a great ride guys and girls.

Floater do you have that arm swing that says "Yo, I'm da OG Pimp!, don't mess."

oh, i've been several times. one of these days i swear i'm going to come home with one of those 10ft high statues from the old spaghetti factory that are for sale in the basement.

I live so close to honest eds and I hate it. Its the most soul-crushing eplilepsy-causing pennywise's playhouse and no matter what simple thing it is you are looking for it takes 30 minutes to find and you get lost in the clothing section by mistake.

I must pass on the vacuum as I am sick like dog :-p

oh god the clothing section! my theory on shopping is that i have to be able to see the street from inside the store.

I think this is where IKEA got the trap the consumer idea.

sorry, i'll have to pass too.. will be working like a dog.

dah.. stupid server. I wonder if this will be a semi-double post also.

I'll try and make it out tonight to CV.. but I've had a week of uber busy nights, so I might be more in the mood to just simply sit on my duff for the evening.

also: My friend's band, Wintersleep, is playing tomorrow night at Lee's Palace ($10). Really great stuff.. y'alls should come out! They're playing with another band from Halifax called Contrived, who I've never seen perform before, but I just checked them out on myspace and they sound pretty great too. Plus if they're friends with the boys from Wintersleep they're pretty much guaranteed to be good live imo.

I just woke up and had the weirdest dream, but I can't remember the dream. All I know was that it was weird. I'm definitley coming down tonight becuase it's so warm...!

Edit: Somnambulant come out to cv ( so you can give me that chainring bolt wrench HAHa ;) )
Edit x2: Carbon fibre minipump for $27. http://www.probikekit.com/display.php?code=A1645
Edit x3: Somnambulant - http://www.probikekit.com/display.php?code=b3021 no s&h on that so .. $5 good deal.

yeah but don't try bikin' there...

Thanks for the help cavernmech and sr20det ,I was up at the shop today talking to Vertern-youth and Tayler about making the Pinarello fixed but I would have to take the campy Hub off and change the Campi crank arms to shorter ones as I am getting peddle strikes now carving corners so instead I'll keep the 42 ring and get a 16 cog instead and just make or buy a fixed gear instead :)

Tell me about it. Security ALWAYS catches me when I get to the kitchen stuff in IKEA. :p :rolleyes:

i'm feeling ambitious so i'm going to try to make it out to CV; who else can i expect to see?
