A pink bike would be sweet. Especially in a 64cm or something crazy big.

Anyone with enough orders can buy the frame, as can be attested to by the guys in the road forum that got a sweet CF frame/fork for under 600$USD shipped. There is another one now too, this time for a Leader frame and it looks like it might be under 500$USD. Tempting.

So I was told today that I have to get a frame that fits or my fixed days are over. So I'm in the market for a 50cm track frame. Keith I was hoping to discuss the issue during the safety meeting tonight. I hate being short sometimes.

Two doctors, one of whom fixed my knees when I screwed them up years ago so I have faith in her opinion. I'll probably swing by earlier today so I don't sully the safety meeting with my whining. Plus I need to see if I can make my monster fit a bit better while I figure out a frame.

edit: I guess I do sort of understand now that I think about it----you are hyperextending your knee when in the bottom of the pedal-rotation, is that right?

in four hours he could do the butterfly, a dolphin around your belly button, a peace sign on your ankle and maybe some chinese characters that don't translate. I almost forgot, he could probably do that rainbow you want too.

spring is a bad time of year for me to get fresh ink. fall is much better so i have time out of the sun to heal. not that i can afford it now anyway. i've known what my next piece will be since before i got my last one, but other things (food, rent, bills, weed, booze, bikes - in no particular order) have taken precidence. oh well, it's a life-long collection; no need to rush... *sigh*

SIDE NOTE:

there was a report regarding some racially motivated comments in this thread. 99.99% of the time, everyone here does a good job of just chatting, etc. and keeping it fun. For the .01% that feel the need to comment ignorantly, you have been warned and there will be no second chance.
Now, back to your regulary scheduled programme!!

this is what i would've been getting coloured in: (it's still a bit scabby in these pics)
those pics were for my brother, hence the finger.
that was my first 4 hour sit and you don't even see all that he got done. like i said, he's fast.
