I'd say it worked better than my road bike! Goddamn what an awesome day.

so f'ing good.. totally worth the scrapes, bruises and sunburn. :P

Yay Summer! And it's only May!

I stripped my khs down to individual pieces today, cleaned everything with degreaser, applied liberal amounts of phil grease to pretty much everything and reassembled. I also put clear enamel over all the paint chips and rewrapped the frame with black electrical tape. I just need new bar tape and that bike will be looking good. Hopefully that damn creak will be gone otherwise I'm going to go crazy.

I also have an entire new drivetrain for my touring bike sitting in a box here. XTR 12-34 cassette, Deore LX 26-34-48 crank, Deore XT RD, Deore LX FD, Ultegra chain. I just need to wait until an order I made comes in to broadway cycles (rear brake to replace my broken one, and a riser stem) and then I'm gonna bring everything down to cavern for a little TLC.

Bike Polo = fun.

Our team was first loser. Wicked final game though, alternating lead 'til the end.

Great day!

Pics are coming, I'll post them on my Flickr account (see signature/link). This may take a bit - I took 300 photos.

Aside from sunburned lips, a great day at the Island again.

Here's the Hasselhoff video I was talking about today. Hooked on a feeling. Absolute crap, but so, so funny it's worth watching the whole thing. Especially about 1:45 in with the motorcyle and wierd sandcreature thing. Wicked. Remeber don't Hassel the Hoff.

Edit, This one is even better

I think those things we're filmed in Eastern Europe (no offence eastern europe).

Well, you're doing me the big favour, so whatever's easiest for you works fine for me.

My hoff quota has been exceeded by three this week. I prefer a Kevin Koffner instead of a Hoffee.

On a side note, drop it hot like jelly rolls.

Anyone know the guy who used to/is still Knifehandchop?

shapelike 05-14-07 08:00 AM

... and the bike polo series looked awesome. Half a month more and I get a weekend day off every week - woo!

Another perfect day for Mountain Bike Racing. I managed to stay in the top 10 which keeps me happy...at least till next race. Bradyn killed it again. Moved up to the next category which is substantially more competitive. Rocked a 4th place....40secs or so out of a podium and 2 minutes back of the win. He is a natural.
Oh yeah.....I got smoked by 13yr old Emily...one of my team-mates....who started 4 minutes behind me...Good Times!

I've hung out with that guy a couple times, but I don't know him really.

How did you find a set of NJS riser bars? :D

somnambulant 05-14-07 09:11 AM

This guy was on my team and was equal to Toby in complete crazy energy I think. :P On the ride home he was swinging his polo mallet around and yelling at people. High-larious. And then I would toot the Annoyanator 5k and he'd kill himself laughing.
