Time to go home, start walking slowly then at regular pace then jump on the bike!
I can imagine what it smells like.
Cheers

First bit of advice....do it in a well ventilated room. All those years I passed on the glue bag....now look where it's got me...unintended huffing.
A willing helper...JACKPOT!! You apply the glue while I stand outside...call me when the tires are ready for installation. SCORES!!

Hey Operator, I thought I saw you riding on Queen St around 4 or something (in your white jersey)...I was checking out apts today downtown and while I was in the neighbourhood, I put in my request for a trial to fight the ticket at the Edward St courthouse. $1100 (utils included) for a 3-bdrm around St. Clair/Dufferin!

Yeah good luck with the trial date. It'll come like a year later. And that was me riding on Queen st. I was bombing across to Cycle Therapy... then to urbane and to China town.

The ONLY thing I don't like about the "track", aside from the fact it's not chillin' at my house , is the typeface of the word 'track', it's hideous in all it Courier-ness. Courier being the name of the font, and one that only appears when the font you had loaded screws up for some reason. I can't help bu tthink it's a mistake on fuji's part. Other than that Mitch it's a sweeeeet ride, go stomp a roadie.

FROM TOUR website. "Stuart O’Grady crashed heavily near the end of the third stage. The Australian CSC recruit went to the hospital last night for x-rays. They revealed a hairline fracture of the fourth lumbar vertebrae. He is still in the race, albeit in considerable pain." A crack in his back and still racing...... I feel old and weak and very unworthy of riding a bike at this moment.
