Nicely done! About how long did it take you?

Hey Oscar, I'm doing fine. What's new with you?

I haven't been riding as much as I'd like the past couple of months. Got into a bit of smash-up with a car in early June (fixie, not the roadie)....
so I've been trying to finish up this project as quickly as I can...

Loose screws (http://www.loosescrews.com) sells chromium bearings for around $3-4 US per 100. They also have a mixed package of a number of different sizes. I thought sheldon's prices a little steep. I'm not sure how that plays out against Motion's after shipping.

7 hours lol :|
The last 50km was so boring, you can't believe it. North access road next to the QEW all the way to St. Catharines + head wind.

And this morning coming back I got soaked to the bone twice and then I flatted west of sauga. So then I cheated and didn't complete the back to back century.

The cavern/sneaky-dees cycling club party isn't happening at Sneaky Dee's? Interesting. :)

I might try and pop by for a bit, but I have a non-cyclist friend visiting that weekend.

Right by the abattoir too! URBAN!

Having the party where it is enabled us to charge $.50 less per beer. Always looking out for the budget minded beer consumer! K.

That's certainly a good reason! :)

So you guys want to do a ride before dropping by party? Or after?

both?

If you ride before...save some for the goldsprints! K.

What time are y'all heading to the pah-tee on Saturday? I just got invited to a friend's bday party on Saturday night also, so I'm trying to figure out a plan of action.

I just realized that I may very well be in New York this weekend...

I just noticed your title.. You're fixed and my gosh don't you know it? :)

KA-BUMPED

I'll come! , so uh, you racing Sunday...? I'm not racing but I'll be a the races, long as i get home in one piece

Er the party starts at 9am or 9pm?

201 niagara is a canadian legion hall in case anyone is wondering.. close to the foggy dew pub. pretty easy to spot. hope this helps people looking for it.
i 'd like to go but i've got guests visiting.. let's see if i can drag them out.

It's that time again: Critical Mass, this Friday. I'll be there if I get off work in time. Anyone else planning on heading out?

I'd do it if I had a lock for my bike. (Got school during the day).

On that note, if anyone spots a shop in Toronto get new stock in of the Kryptonite stubby Evolution 2000 lock, please let me know. I've been trying to track down a new lock for ages.

I picked one up a few weeks ago at Cyclepath on Bloor, West of Dufferin.

i've been looking for one since march! a bunch of stores suggest putting your name on a waiting list which might improve your chances, but it's hardly a guarantee. i think it's more a matter of timing. i've randomly gone into stores and have been told that they had a shipment in a week ago and sold out, or that they will be getting a bunch in in a week.. for what it matters, i was shopping for groceries in kensington last week, stopped by bikes on wheels and they said they'd be getting "more" locks in this week. -e

operator, you can leave your bike at my work (wellington/portland) which is what i'll be doing if i make it down. the only drawback is you can't drink later than me. heh..

I'm actually waiting for one of these.

I'll call and see if Caverns got them tomorrow morning, if yes then expect me at CM.

Too effing heavy for me. If I know I'm going to be locking my bike up for any extended amount of time, I just ride "White Sputter" (****e bikes unite!). Otherwise, I'm all for short u-locks and keeping eye out the window of whatever building I'm in for the moment.

Of course, my u-lock's going to give before that juggernought of a chain ... so *hi5* for showing your bike the love it deserves.

actually.. you'll be amazed how well the weight is distributed when you wear it around your waist. it's also pretty good as a visual deterrent. pair it up with a mini-u around the rear wheel and chances are the thief will go for easier pickings.

Like I said, if I get off work in time I'll be there.

Keep an eye out for this garbage pile on wheels:
