They are not light rims, but they are really strong. I have been beating on them in the DVP mtb trails regularly for over a year with no truing required. (except once.....the front when I got doored by an SUV-minor touchup......@#$%#$* SUV drivers).

Edit: ^Exaggeration in italics: it would probably take me at least 2 hours. An hour to Newmarket, then an hour to Richmond Hill.

Just when I thought I was out of the woods, NSERC decides to pull my summer research grant funding because my study doesn't fall under the umbrella of their "mandate statement". I have until Monday to come up with a completely different project. Feel free to CV sans me, fellas. Doesn't look like I'm going out anytime soon.

I planned a project which studies the effects of background music with different parameters (manipulating tempo and mode, etc.) on the agitation of dementia patients. Apparently it doesn't focus enough on "basic processes of psychology", which is what NSERC is interested in. Although I thought my hypotheses for a cognitive vs. affective model was pretty "basic processes". Bleh. Anyways, now I'm writing up something on phoneme and pitch change perception.
Wow. I just realized that no one will understand or care about anything I just wrote. Anyways, the point is, feel sorry for me because I'm sitting at my computer writing up a research proposal instead of being outside riding like some of you lucky barstards.
