first ride on a bike in 2 months... it kicked ass (even the little rain wasn't too bad... till i went through a stream and my feet went underwater...)


i was out of breath just cruising home tonight, i feel sooo out of shape its not cool.

On the bright side of things i will have my misfit on sunday *big smile* and i have enough money to replace my stolen Ipod *another big smile*


[Edit spelling, running on 30 hours of no sleep]

Happy Birthday Pyze!

Good trip, Wes.

Welcome back Stuart!

Thanks to all, yes it is my birthday. Bought myself a new frame as a present to me with some b-day cash I received:D. Going to become the summer bike and in the winter the beater shall be reactivated.

Probably going to get a headset, fork and crank as well. Free shipping in the U.S. to my friends in Buffalo, prices are too good to pass up.

My ipod died and I'm having to work without distractions. I went to Pandora but it seems to be down with engineering issues. Any other sites like that I can use to distract myself from the thoughts of "boy it's a nice day for a ride..."

Can't wait to see it built up!

Speaking of built up.... Just got these pics put up on flickr. All I need now is a clamp-on cross type lever. Anyone want to go halfzies on a set of nice cross style levers?

What size do you need? I have a couple spares I can check sizes on tonight. Both are black.

Nice, Pyze :) Are you going SS 'cross with that?

Nice build, fella! IMHO a fork with a little less rake would be nice (not like you asked, ha!) but it's a solid / classy lookin' bicycle.

Thanks, Oh yeah no doubt. Don't think I haven't been looking. If anyone has any thoughts I'd love to hear. Steel noni track? -pretty hard to get these days though now that it's all carbon.

What clampsize do you need for the levers? I have 24.? I don't need and one 31.1 as well. Yours if they work for you.

No, it's a s/s mtb frame that will be my spring to fall ride. My present ride will be used in the winter.
