Also, I hate to say it, but I have a sneaking suspicion that this isn't the last angry update we're going to get on this transaction. How much do you trust now that these guys are the only ones who actually have the tires in question in stock? Seems interesting such a crappy outfit has a stock of things nobody else can get a hold of...
Worst case scenario, coach will give me his and I'll just send him mine when I get them. He (coach) will be down in LA this coming weekend, so I'll be seeing him anyway, |

Hey @LAJ, want to take Mrs. LAJ to the Hyatt Mountain Lodge in Avon for free 5/20-5/27? One of my timeshare friends has a free unit, you don't even have to go hear the sales pitch.
All you have to do is not burn the place down. ;) You could go any of the days out of that week, you don't have to go all 7 days. Its one of those things that someone will grab quick, so no telling if its even still available. |

So Oustide Outfitters, the place I had the Seinfeldesque exchange about the term ORDER FULLFILMENT? Tires still haven't shipped. To refresh your memory: I ordered last Tuesday and paid for 2 day expedited shipping. Website says ORDER FULFILLMENT 2-3 BUSINESS DAYS Turns out ORDER FULFILLMENT refers to them getting their order from their warehouse, not when I get my order from them So tires should have shipped on Fri and I should have them today or tomorrow No email that they've shipped, so I called They won't even get em from their warehouse until tomorrow. THEN they'll ship them MAYBE I'll get them Friday, which would be an ORDER FULFILLMENT time of 9 business days, total time 11 days. Or maybe I'll get them a week from today, which is an ORDER FULFILLMENT time of 10 business day, or 13 real days. :mad::mad::mad: |
So apparently there's a "bike camp" thing in my area where coaches teach people the basics of pack racing, and completing their tests gives you an automatic upgrade to Cat 4, even without ever starting a race.
This is the result. Watch the guy to the left of camera at about 8:08- I was in this field and knew from the start he was sketchy, so I stayed high and outside the main pack for the whole race. He apparently brushes my teammate's rear wheel briefly and then just flops down without much apparent attempt to correct. He took another 10 riders down with him, including another teammate of mine who injured his knee. That is why there's no replacement for pack time, and why I think people shouldn't be allowed to insta-upgrade. |
^^^ man, I still can't even see the drone in that one.

Watching that again, I forgot that the guy who ended up winning went down in that crash, took a lap, and spent the rest of the race stuck in his smallest cog (I think 52/11) because of a broken shifter or der. You can see him occasionally in the video pedaling at an awkwardly slow cadence.
Dude is strong. |

Are you on the Phase cycling team? I was out there when they first formed. From what I have seen on my FB feed they are making progress.

Some guy on our local FB bike sales group posted one of these just now.
http://www.strangevehicles.com/image...ent/130709.jpg Post is titled, "Why the **** do I own this??" and lists a sale price of $100,000. Seems legit. |
I wonder about the lateral balance on those things. Like from the stem height it looks like one side is for danny devito, and the other ahnold. But I gotta think ahnold weighs so much more it would just fall over.

Sitting in the office's Steelcase Gesture.. def not big enough for my arse. Looks like a one size fits all butts except for mine.
|
I just N+1'd all over the place. New strider bike for the 4yo.

Why hasn't anyone suggested clip-on aerobars for the stroller? Marginal gains.

This is unlikely to happen in a bicycle transaction, but jeez.

I started our son on a strider bike as soon as he could standover one. Just before his third birthday. |
Repaving season is in full gear. The grooving machine hit another road I frequent and I saw them grooving yet another one earlier today. It's gobbling up pavement like Addictionites loading down at the buffet line.

Losing a little weight + riding a lot recently + fantastic weather = a ride where you just can't stop smiling and feel like you're dancing on the pedals. Good times.
