Yah, whoever at the BBQ gave me my cold is going to die.

don't look at me...

I grabbed the Richey pedals, $25 never used, with cleats. Yeah me.

No camera work for the crash!? Being the host/cameraman/safety inspector can be a load of work. Sorry I didn't come out but knowing I was racing today for the first time this year, and the inevitable beverages that would be consumed, was a bit too risky for my un-disiplined self. Sounded like a good time.
As far as the race my knees are aching and I have a bit o sunburn but otherwise a great ride. Our whole crew finished with the exception of Bradyn who snapped his chain...*****mano..already replaced with a SRAM. Think I knocked about 20 mins off last years time and did it with tunes the whole way....good times!

yeah.. whomever I said "I don't tan or burn" to yesterday.. I take that back. :P

edit: found my shirt.. nevermind.
edit 2: I'm not in the results for P-A.. b'oh.

Offhoff, did you need a 3/32 or 1/8 144 BCD chain ring? I have a used 3/32 Sugino 46 which you can have for a beverage consideration or a cherry NJS Sugino 48 in 1/8" which will cost you many dollars. Or if you're feeling hefty, I have a 3/32" Sakae in 52. :D

Let me know and I can drop it off at Cavern tomorrow if I can. I'll probably need a sanity ride as I head in to the term's home stretch.

nice find. from what i understand, they are pretty much mick-ups of the old shimanos. for that price you can't even get the cheap wellgos from MEC.

hey, if you're feeling like riding tomorrow let me know, i'm off for the day.

The best part is I was going to Mec to get the cheap wellgos. I'm off tomorrow, coffee and a ride should work.

Let me know when, I'll be pulling a late one, but I seem to be nearly out of magic beans from I Deal and that just won't do. I'll probably work steady through the morning, but noon or early afternoon would be a good break. I also may need to go out to Bloor West to pick up a laser printer refill. My cartridge is on its last legs.

even better. i'd say the ritchey's are more than a step up. lemme know what time's good for you. i'm free, um all day. i thought school was in on mondays?

i'd like to ride, but if it's raining then i may spend the morning bike building.

Good idea, I am out of coffee as well. I like noonish as well.

works for me. how's 1:00 at I Deal? What say you pyze?

EDIT: do you guys know who's working behind the counter on mondays? actually there seems to be a plethora of attractive women working there so any day is good for eye candy. my appologies to 32flavours for the sexist remarks...

I don't keep tabs, really. Audrey Tatou seems to be there most times I'm there. Why would you need to apologize for making a sexy remark?

there is the odd woman on this forum; it's not a complete sausage-fest. i like to at least pretend i'm not a pig...

1:00 works for me. Be there or be square.

lamezor...

Damm that sucks hope everything works out in your favour.

I also had some folks over for a BBQ no bikes but had a cool rocket that kept the kids happy & the adults. I did get on the bike today & had a slow mo fall = sore elbow. Ha Ha
Cheers all

Project bike help needed... so I've got the big bits (frame, fork, wheels, hs, bb) but i'm still in need of a decent crank, stem and seat post. I didn't get a chance to hit the swap today but figured my fellow forum members may have some suggestions on where i can find these items without breaking the bank. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...

I would like to mention that it's a simply splendid evening for a ride on the Gardiner. If you have the time to get out for a ride within the next 5 hours or so it comes highly recommended. (Eastbound only, Westbound has already re-opened)

I have a 27.2 seatpost.

I'm just signing on now. Yeah I was with Toby last night and he seemed to be fine. He does have a nasty bit of road rash on his shoulder and his wrist is kind of sore. He had a tensor bandage on it today. As for last night him and I went to Dance Cave which was amazing as expected. Then while riding south on Bathurst at like 3:00am we heard live music coming out of this house so we went in and "crashed" the party. We got free beer and met some girl who had a flying v shaped ukulele. Her and I jammed ukulele style. Then after all of this it turned out I actually knew the dude who lived there/whose birthday it was. He's a total dickbag not that that's relevent to the story... Great night!!!

Stephen: thanks for a great bbq!

Dom: We're your real insurance. Just give us the guy's address who hit you and we'll go kick his ass. On a more serious note I hope you're okay.

That is some whack **** dan - ownage.

lucky for you those are the cheap bits. what sizes are you looking for?

sorry, i don't speak internet...
