Aye but once I'm there my meager savings will be spent on something shiny and new, not something I can afford to do right.

Any of you guys play poker? I'm thinking we could go for spin some weekend and then watch the leafs and play some cards. Maybe even get some bbq battle going between chef school boi and my southern pulled pork before the weather gets too bad...

When the weather gets bad I'm asking JW for his goulash recipe. I'll make chilli.

Is that leaves or Leafers?

Whoever paid that is clearly a hipster/poseur with way too much dinero for his/her own good. I can only hope they ride em on the street and blow em into pieces.

If I had the cash I'd totally do the same thing. Ebay is great when money is no object. Beats buying ******** bike parts than most of the other stuff you could waste money on (like a 1500 dollar meal or bottle of wine)

If this guy is lving in a tiny studio completely buried in ridiculously expensive bike parts while he eats dog food, well, then he has problems.

Hah, true...

However, he should have made a deal with the seller to buyout his Campy stock in one lump sum.

Oh well...

Hmm... $1500 meal or $1500 Campy parts... Tough decision...

<---- has eaten a 1500 meal but owns no 1500 bicycle parts

But the meal was beyond an experience I will cherish that memory for the rest of my life...and escape to the French Laundry whenever I get a chance.
