Like I said before, you can now shoot screws out of nail guns... and they also have auto feed screw guns (not nearly as fast as pneumatic) but will countersink for you, etc...

Power tools for screw installation do indeed exist, and I can tell you they work amazingly well. The ones we use at work are for custom shipping crates for equipment that weighs a ton or more. We're shooting like 3+" deck screws, and then can easily remove them with a screwdriver (etc) on site when it's time to unpack the crates.

You were going to praise the wisdom of my multi-day/phase bike maintenance program this week.

Good thing about racing for the university's team is that they pay for the car rental, hotel, and racing fees so I can go get droped. The parents paying $65,000 per year for their kids to go to school here must be proud.
Oh, to be in college again (as long as I didn't have to pay for it).

But it's a Cinelli. That should make up for the difference.

Who let that single guy in there?
He was the sag van driver. Why he was buzzing around in the parking lot before the start.

It's a stoker thing and captains always do what the stoker says. :innocent:

Ha - those are very cool. I always keep an eye out for a decent egg-beater, but I only have braces at this point.

Dayum! Only thing left to do is eat. Isn't there some sort of tarp/raincoat which could cover both members of a tandem team?

You look guilty. Your stoker just yelled at you didn't she?

So are our club rides. Phooey. We need to find a place where it only rains at night.

They never see us. Or so they claim.

Been waiting for the third. Hopefully this is the end of it. Very sad all around.
