It appears I may get stuck at work and miss CM. Do you guys have a meeting place for grub/brew after?

operator 05-26-06 02:45 PM

btw. if anyone is going on the FFL ride tomorrow, keep in mind that it's supposed to be 25 and sunny. If you burn easily, bring sunscreen. :)

FFL Ride in 9 hours!!

eyefloater 05-26-06 10:19 PM

So I just installed the aero bars and took them for a test ride. All of a sudden, my saddle feels too low. Did you (Operator or anyone else who has used these craaazy things) notice the same thing? Is it just a feel thing that'll go away quickly or should I make some adjustments? I'll have tools on me tomorrow so I can change things either way, but I'd like to make any adjustments tonight if they're required.

operator 05-26-06 11:12 PM

You typically move forward on your seat when on the aerobars, you probably do need to move your seat up a bit but then that screws your position for off the aer0bars. Tri guys have those crazy fast foward seatposts.

I'd say leave it for now and then mess with it after the ride (72ks on bad fit = not cool).

eyefloater 05-26-06 11:50 PM

Thanks for the last minute voice of reason.

sr20det 05-26-06 11:55 PM

Critical Mass video right therr. ---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okjgtYLihEM

Quality is sub par cause I only used my digital camera's video mode, but it's still fun to watch.

If you were on the ride yesterday you will probably see yourself.

Critical Ass video will be up some time soon, but first i need to sleep.

Nice CM pics... couldn't make it out unfortunatley.

This week I was offering free bike tune ups at work in order to get people ready to ride in for bike week. A total of 8 people brought in their rides. Hopefully they'll ride in next Friday (that's the day we're targeting as our bike to work day). Every year a couple more people get involved (3rd year). Some of them were interested in learning about maintenance and repair. Cool!

That bike films night at Yasi's looks interesting. I think it's next Saturday.

Whoa! That is a lot of people, did the police give you a hard time? What time of day was this? I thought it was going to be much later in the evening. Nice.
