I might try and make it out as well.. it's not too far from my place and they have tasty food (from what I remember).

Dude ... EVERYTHING. Shoes fall under the "apparel" category, so 50% off.

Or are you just disagree to be disagreeable?

Lil' bit of column A, lil' bit of column B.

I dislike the place because I'm friends w/ the guys at Cheese Magic and they got hassled by the coffee place for going in when they were busy and trying to get some coffees (ala: un-hip staff from the neighbourhood should know better than to bother other the shops with money when they're busy).

Total hearsay, but I've got to stick with my cheese moguls ... they're my pushers.

cavit8 09-16-06 05:56 PM

I love cheese magic. And ideal has way better mud anyway...

Op: I'll grab the road double off you. I may put it on something other than a fixed.

We don't carry Shimano shoes ... and we've got some Crank Bros. pedals in stock (C's I believe). Time stuff we always order in.

Thanks for the tires, Mike. Do you guys have a coffee machine on the premises?

That's an interesting question.

Yes, but it's slightly mold-ridden (can something be slightly "ridden"?) ... just down the street is Tango though, and they're great.

cavit8 09-17-06 05:14 PM

mmmm.... Tango. mmmmm..... exceptionally huge Nanaimo bars .....

Mike, I may be a bit bringing that Brodie in. It seems I've managed to lose the brake cable pinch bolt for the front caliper. I may have something in my box of fun, but if not, I'll need to find someone who has Hayes mechanical parts. Otherwise, I should be in on Wednesday.

Is that all the info, that one paragraph? No more details about the accident/time of day/weather/etc?

Anyone who deals with OGC (Outdoor Gear Canada) can order in Hayes stuff.

eyefloater 09-17-06 05:58 PM

... well, who won the Angi?

As it turns out, it's identical to a derailleur pinch bolt, so I swiped one off an xt derailleur I had lying around. I can replace that at my leisure. I'll add a few odds and ends to pretty it up a bit and bring it in on Wednesday.

eyefloater 09-17-06 07:11 PM

Okay, I've got a bit of a tall order here:

The gf got me an awesome Francaise des Jeux long sleeve jersey ... problem is, it's a size or so too big for me. Does anyone know someone who could actually take in a jersey and not mangle it completely? Fabric like this is pretty weird, and there's a lot of different panels on the jersey. Honestly, I don't know how much I'll wear this thing since it's pretty baggy right now, but I'll definitely pay to have it fixed up a bit.
