Yes.

Well, about 99% sure. Measures about 1 1/8in, so about 30.5 mm.

I'm all for it. Would rather have the frames used then put them out for garbage where I found them.

Offhoff 11-09-06 10:40 AM

Op I have a bunch of rims in my garage, not in great shape but some are probably rideable if your interested in them for the chain...

I just dumped the last half dozen or so beater bikes outside behind the shop. they are not high quality but are certainly useful to someone. I still have a few bins of old parts as well. Bike Chain is welcome to the lot...but you have to arrange pickup.

The playstation_controller.asp in the URL is for search engines to rank it higher.. If the URL has the key word.. It'll be closer to the top of the list.

They probably sell PS controllers..

operator 11-09-06 11:52 AM

Alright Keith, offhoff, pyze-guy. Thanks for the offers. I'll come by and pick up

Offhoff 11-09-06 11:53 AM

PM me for my digits if so required. I can't believe I'm working a 12 hour shift today, god it look so nice outside I can hardly stand it. I want to just jump on the bike and disappear through the city for the day. Frustrations abound at chez hoff

Send me a PM and we can arrange a pickup time.

Edit: Did a quick skim of the Bikechain site, looks like a good project. I'd much rather see the frames (and parts) put to use than pitch them. I'm not a fanatic about recycling or reuseing items, but I do look for ways to improve the situation.

I'll dig through the stuff I have and see what else might be of use.

Offhoff 11-09-06 03:17 PM

Is anyone going to call the ball on a CV tonight?

darkmother 11-09-06 03:36 PM

I've got a bunch of parts in my parent's garage that I need to get rid of. I totally can't remember what is there, but I think there are wheels and various parts which may or may not be useful. I'll donate anything that is not fubar.

Critical Vacuum, an on again off again toronto fixed ride that usually meets in the evening at the Honest Eds parking lot. We haven't (or atleast I haven't) been to one in awhile but as the season winds down I think it would be interesting if theres interest. Sorry I didn't post about riding I decided to train hills by dragging a buddy of mine on his skateboard up russell hill

Shiznaz 11-09-06 05:01 PM

I had the longest most brutal day at work. 8am to 5:30pm solid, no breaks. Now its breakfast time. arghhhhhhh

Are you sure that's not where they are keeping the plans for the new bypass? *somewhere cryptic reference, should be easy*

My wife brought home my embroidered Traffic Jammer Wear...... damn super cool.
The jacket (Second Skin)is warm and comphy and can be worn when I'm not biking.
The pants had been done in the wrong spot and a medium was too big (huh?), so it looks like I'll be getting a smaller pair. The fabric is killer, and they feel pretty water proof and stretchy. Great for putting on after a ride as well, say at the patio, or waiting for your next set of laps. I'm a lucky Daddy.

So far the new MacBook Pro, is sweeeeet. Hey.. anybody have any ideas how to get the Mac to access Windows XP shared folders over wireless at home? I tried smb://i.p# but failed to connect to anything, ip# being the ip# of the PC as reported by my router. Network utilities ping the addy no problem. Last time I connected Mac's and PC's I was using MacLan. :lol:
