I think it's called "blaze blue". Remember the 80s Ford Lasers used to come in the same colour.

You've done well to respond to your own quote.

did you finally get the map I sent? I think the dudes from the Glenrock Alliance go out mapping once in a while also, might be easier to hook up with them when they do some marking out, as they seem to know the place backwards already.

mmmm, no Giro today, boring. Kylie's taken over the media today instead.

Bloody oath. Yeah, I remember it on those lasers. Looked crap on them, but it didn't help that they were a crappy looking car. Looks much better on that slick bike of yours. ;)

Thank heavens for small mercies, I say. At least she's distracted the media from the latest dribble from the 'Walking Headline'.

climbo 05-17-05 06:53 PM

who?

jock 05-17-05 07:26 PM

Delta. Speak of it not.

pshaw 05-17-05 08:17 PM

The map looks good, we need to set a trail blazing day!
Climbo, when are you free? I'm out the weekend 27/28, any other time is fine!
Expat, assume you are up for the task. Munchie.. sorry Jock, are you keen?
Where has DBuckingham gone..? Eating cake in Amsterdam i guess?

A new name but you know what they say... a leopard doesnt change his spots!

Your right it's not a good colour/to dark for a blue ,some bright stickers would improve the profile.

Having a Harry Chapin moment, eh?

Brian 05-18-05 12:28 AM

Still no map. I sent you an alternate email address.

climbo 05-18-05 03:56 AM

jock, where'd you get the aerial map? I'm looking for one for Kincumba Mountain.

saccy, I have a set of Avid 2.0 v-brakes. Yours cheap if you want them. PM me.

Brian 05-18-05 04:36 AM

Geez, I offered him SD-3's. Hopefully you'll make him a good deal, and then we just need to get him hooked up with some levers. I have the Rim Wranglers if he needs pads.

climbo 05-18-05 05:14 AM

what's the difference?

badsac 05-18-05 05:24 AM

I see a 2 and a 3. Since 3's a bigger number, they'd be better right?

Brian 05-18-05 02:46 PM

Honestly, I don't know what the difference is. Avid has a huge line of confusing brakesets. Arch Rival is pretty much at the top. They've got one other really good one, which I think has been discontinued.

climbo 05-18-05 03:07 PM

3 costs more than 2 and 1.0 is at the bottom, what the exact differences are I couldn't tell you, their website might have more info on each one but they'll only have current stuff, mine are a few years old.

P.S> Go Robbie !!!!

Brian 05-18-05 03:23 PM

As long as they stop. I've got maps! I wonder if I can print these at work?

Hmmm... Zabel in there too. Does the master have something special left in him?
