This thread got better since we made friends with Philly.

Props to "A short history of the Philly-Toronto rivalry" thread. Brill.

super off topic: I know you're a bunch of bike riding hippies, but does anyone know a good autobody person? My buddy got into a fender bender this evening (with another motorist )

Interestingly, I just sold my car for $250 to a guy who does autobody and apparently free home appraisals! Unfortunately, I didn't feel safe this evening so I'm on the bottom third of Finca Antigua Crianza 2003 ($14.95 at your local vintages) and I'm feeling much safer, but unable to find his card. I will assay to do this tomorrow. Incidentally, a *very* nice red.

You guys have a good setup over there. I've been meaning to check it out for a while. The fact that you guys did a brake workshop was a bonus, since I got some pointers for my Guerciotti build. Nice!
