Holy big blue eyes, pyze-man! :D

Cute photo, love the fire truck bib, too - He looks a lot like you in that photo :)

10 minutes you say..... good to know. I know what you mean by regular speed looking a bit boring.

re: youtube limits: Use Vimeo. Vimeo is your friend.

"Vimeo is simple and appealing, offering good quality videos, a 500MB weekly upload limit and even HD content. As long as it fits within your weekly limit, you can upload videos of any length, and even upload them via e-mail!"

Ooooh, OK - I was looking on there for that info but didn't want to signup - good to know indeed, I notice youtube have a 1GB size limit, but still the 10 mins. Facebook is 20 mins/300MB I think. Vimeo looks to be the weinar.

And I think my camera is to blame for speed/depth perception - I was hauling a good 50-55km/h down O'Connor one night and reviewed even that video and it looked tame/slow, heh - so it's probably just a lense/angle/whatever (I'm not a photographer ;)) thing.

Vimeo also seems to be much higher quality.

Ahhh... there was some confusion in my question earlier - "where the rest of the group went." I was with the group that went down keele to the queensway. Where did Will, Keith etc.. end up?

On the baby pictures front -- I've been away from the cyberworld for a few days, but am back to introduce the latest future cyclist to the world:

I'm guessing that my posts for the next little while will be sporadic and appearing at random times, day or night, from what I've heard :)

llz

yo Foo and pyze...cute kidaroos! Gabbys future riding partners? worrrrrrd up!

[QUOTE=pyze-guy;6578557]My wifes "new" commuter. Nothing fancy, mavic rims, axiom s/s disc hub, 39X15, 2.0 tires. Rides great, faster than I thought it would be and goes over everything. Pretty well bombproof. Total cost was $19.99 for the saddle. Everything was from parts I had.

That my friend, is awesome!

Congrats 'Foo!

kergin: Wil took off at Bloor early on, I think Keith turned around at the entrance of High Park - we went up the hill and across to Windermere, I guess you all went left there at Keele/Parkside?

Nice setup! How big are the tires that you can't find fenders? There are some wide planet bike fenders that I bet would clear those.

I have a pretty wide set of mtb fenders you could have if you want to try it out.

Adam, congratulations on the wee potato.

Hey congrats!! Welcome to a whole new world.

Cool, the tires are 2.0. I'll swing by one day and check and see if they fit. Thanks.

Okay so far only TJ needs to confirm the hub order. I'll be phoning it in in the am, 9-10ish. Awkward sentence there.

fixed...
Lord Foo, that's an adorable addition to the family, awesome....good times ahead.

i just returned from getting my haircut, and while i was there i was flipping through some random japanese fashion/style magazine that had a piece highlighting a bunch of bags. alongside pics/info of the northface, manhattan portage and some other brands i forget, was...UNDER-THE-WEATHER! they also noted it was from toronto.

just saying great work to sam & co. taking over the world! :D

I wasn't feeling good at all so I cut out at Clinton.

Sam was telling me that the Japanese retailers he deals with order the most insane colorways. Everytime he takes the order he shakes his head but they seem to sell. They must think I'm nuts with my all black UTW Messential.

Congrats on the kids guys. If only they could always be THIS cute: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2a8NLuVwIs or this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OBlg...eature=related

Funny. Brings back memories of India.

Ohhhhhhhhh man Pyze you tryin to get me fired...hahahahahahaha :lol:

I fell outta my chair laughin...that is wicked!

:roflmao:

Okay, hubs are ordered, should ship Monday via USPS. Only thing people need to know: only have the hubs in silver, I know the site said black. So I ordered for everyone anyways:) If you don't want a set of fixed free hubs for $40 you are a w@nker. Haha just kidding. Anyways if you dont want them in silver let me know soon so I can call and cancel your order. or keep them and flip them on Clist or ebay for more than they cost you.

Cheers,
Chris.

This one is crazy too. So so miss living there sometimes.

rad!

thanks chris!

Ah how did I miss this!? If they ship monday, can I be added? :o

Sweet pyze, thankees very muchlies - if I think ahead, I'll get some cashola for you at mass tonight, if not, then whenever they come in I guess.

Up early to get to Whitby for 8:30 and the office doesn't get opened until 9:20 as they were running late... Mendddooozzzaaaa!

Mounted fenders during the train ride, I'm hoping it was worth the effort.

Oh yeah, and PS. on those Cascadia fenders - *massive* improvement on the front coverage, the backside (under the downtube area) is WAY longer now, with the mudflap it's superb coverage - I hope it performs! :)

Did anyone hear on CBC yesterday about the possibility of banning brakeless bikes? My girlfriend said she heard something... I can't find anything on their site.

Was this in Toronto only? Seems like a something at the municipal bylaw level.

Is this even news?

of all days to forget a raincoat. stupid stupid stupid.

You can have mine. I was only interested in black ones since I'm in absolutely zero hurry to build another wheelset and I'm being picky.

ps. and by "have" I mean take over my spot, not freebies. ;)

Booya! Went to fight the tickets and got reduced from $290 to $45.

anyone interested in a cheap winter bike or a beater check this out. nothing special but not a back hack around for for $250.
