Stigma from the 50's I think tbh. My old man said anything back then made from plastic was straight junk. Plastics have come a long way..

It also means that I've had to carry around that little adapter so I can connect my earbuds to the phone while riding. Pretty good odds that I lose it within the next couple of weeks, if not sooner.

Of course, since the phone is relatively new and the knockoff people haven't started mass producing them, a replacement dongle is something like $30. Ugh.

Was not aware that this was an option. Is there a science to it or just bend the ****er 'til it's true?

As regards crabon/plastic. I'm an old fogey and that move is simply a step that I'm not willing to take/accept. I'll try not to be disrespectful to others who (that?) feel differently.

My musical tastes are still wallowing in the 18th century for the most part. Can't relate.

Those are super cheap. Have you bought any? Full wheels or rims only?

Not to go off on a tangent, but what is the proper usage, here? I believe that "that" is correct; but not sure. Is there a grammarian in the house?

Hot Cross buns are really good. In Italy, in preparation for Easter, they make a bread in the shape of a dove called, Colomba di Pasqua that is really good too. There's brioche, of course. Oh, and don't forget Challah! I love these food postings. :)

I'm glad that my almost-6-year-old can recognize (and seems to appreciate) a decent number of classical pieces. Makes me feel like I'm doing at least one thing right.

The rotors are really springy so you find the high spot or wherever and sort of give it a judicious pop. May take several tries to get it right.

I have one rotor that gives me fits and I really should toss it but I'm too cheap. When I try to straighten it, it's like trying to true a wheel. I keep chasing the out of true spot around the wheel.
