Very little. You work with what you have.

No way for UN observers to verify your claims.

Oh well.

Lets just say the I was duly chastised and feel small and embarrassed. :(

Most of the year I don't have a problem with allergies, but right now there's stuff coming off a kind of tree (I can't ID) that irritates my throat when I mow or am otherwise around it too much.

Exactly.

Don't be so sure.

Ouch [MENTION=5429]LowCel[/MENTION]. I didn't bother watching your crash video. Hopefully you heal up well and reasonably quickly and can get back on a proper (pedal) bike.

It's amazing you can already buy the Dogma F10 rip offs on ebay.

Same molds, right?

What happened to your skill in riding across the land and climbing over logs?

Washboard road surface. Close enough.

Then 20 miles in, my left shoulder joint and scapula start aching, probably from breaking it last July 31st. Had to stop twice in the last 10 miles to try and stretch and relieve the pain.

Bummer


Funny thing is, we were worried about my wife having pain and she's yelling at me the last 10 miles to suck it up. :lol:
Naturally


Good news is no rain for us but others were not so lucky.

Anyone seen finish nails with a decent head? Roofing nails do, but they're just too damn big.

Maybe they don't call them finish nails if they have a head. Just ask for fencing nails that always come with a small flat head. Remember to get stainless. Those rust stains on the fence are trashay.

No clue. If it is the same mold, Pinarello needs to do a better job of managing their factory. It's an expensive frameset.

Agree. I was just using the logic of the people that justify buying one.

Very repetitious. There is no other kind of Brittany.

Road if the trails are closed, otherwise if you want I'll show you the trails. We'll take it easy... there's supposed to be a big group of church ladies out on a hike out there tomorrow morning. Lemmie ask the wife what time I'm allowed off the leash.

Sounds like a plan. Single church ladies? :p

No idea. They're supposed to be WESTSIIIIIDE, which we may or may not get to. The west is killer hard, but the first loop of it is not too bad. I've only done it a couple of times, though. Let's roll at 9. Supposed to be colder in the morning, and favorable winds for the route we did last time on the road. If trails stay dry we'll do that, but we shall see with this storm coming tonight.

Absolutely named after the race. We picked her up from the airport during the race, hence her name. Of course, with my last name, it could go either way.

I could never see the point of paying more than $20 for a jersey.

You just like saying it. Like the Urban Sombrero.

Oh boy. So many tasteless jokes that could be made. But I'm smarter and more professional now, so I'll just say I want rims that are vertically compliant and laterally stiff. Or is that for frames?

Firm, yet supple.

Who, me?

You have me mistaken for somebody else. That's all I'll say on the matter.
