The guy I quoted from before is a bikeforums member, he also crossposted his reply to TBN forums. He is also on the CM vid saying something radically different.

I went all the way down to MEC and the f*kers were sold out of the Lake shoes so I picked up a pair of exustar mountain bike ones,, I tried all the sidis and they really hurt my toes except the $200 plus sidis' which are too much fo me

Really????! I think that thing is awesome! Seriously! It looks like it would be a blast to ride/mess around on. Not EVERY bike HAS to be a Cinellirello. :) I'm gonna go to Jetgruel for a bit anyone else heading over from the west side? I'm going to probably go around 9ish.

2wheelsgood 04-01-07 05:26 PM

15th anniversary of the shop. I don't give a crap about that per se. They're always dix when I go in there anyway. But there will be lots of couriers/local bike nerds there and there's free beer. Hence: gold.

This Chris fellow has a most excellent girlfriend:

You gotta love a lady who not only buys her man surprise bike gifts, but builds them up with her own hands.

(emailing the link to the wife right now...)

2wheelsgood 04-01-07 05:46 PM

come on over if you're hungry. it's got chicken in it though.

jeremywhitehorn 04-01-07 07:18 PM

enjoy the jet fuel party, to whoever's going. i hate turning down free beer, but i've got a crapload of work to do.

jet sanchEz 04-01-07 07:51 PM

I just got home and I found a bike on the street! I posted a "Lost" ad on CL but if anyone here knows someone who had their CCM bike lost or stolen, I found it. Point them to the ad.

Ha ha... she actually mentioned you on Facebook message yesterday when she noticed I mentioned CM. When I was looking at your cracked frame flickr pictures it connected the dots for me as well.

Kind of a weird small world.

It's entirely possible... if you look back a few pages at Dr.Benway's flat tire pictures, that was me in the green jacket.
