Eff BF.

I really need to start asking where the rides are going when I do them. I went to the usual ride I do which is always 60 miles but I've missed the last few weeks. 50 miles in I notice we haven't gotten to the midpoint/rest stop. Turns out it's now an 87 mile ride and the rest stop wasn't until about mile 55. Some how I made it on with one water bottle and 2 pieces of toast for breakfast. Oh and how I wish it was 40 degrees here, it's 89 degrees here and feels like 94. wonderful.

:roflmao2:

i broke down and bought an Arione. It was mismarked $10 lower than retail and the LBS sent me a $20 off sale coupon so it still wasn't full price, but it is certainly the most I have ever paid for a saddle. I have 30 days to return if I hate it.

We got a break between storms, so I did a loop around Cazenovia lake -- no trainer Pokeman...;)

Strong winds out of the west, but it's a north/south route which meant I mostly had to keep from getting blown over sideways. It did rain and hail on me with about 5mi to go.

It was supposed to rain today, but it was nice all day long. just a little cloudy in the morning. The wind was kinda annoying on my ride though.

I am going to a drive in movie tonight pcad, what about you?

It's so windy here, some of my aluminum fascia just ripped off my house.

:eek:

should've made it out of carbon fiber.

I'm heading off to a friends tonight via bike. I feel like I'm a randonneur or something. Rack, cargo shorts, t shirt, lights, bottle, all on a 20 year old steel bike with fenders.

Nice to be off of the carbon once in a while.

Oh and no clipless.

You don't mean that.

Raining and windy like the wizard of Oz is in town. Went for an hour run...rather ride...hopefully tomorrow

i'll post it here too:

wrong chain ring, wrong gear on the cassette, no aero bars allowed, tires not oriented the same way, crankarms oriented wrong, wheel decals in the different positions front and rear, cut the excess steerer tube and get rid of the tumor under the seat. for a guy that bashes every pic they put up on here, you totally did it wrong.

Arizona, specifically Phoenix, is hot. Like ridiculous hot and it's not even summer yet. How... or more importantly why would anyone who rides bike live here?

how hot was it? it was in the 90's here today. it sucks, i want the "cold" back.

just looked it up. it got into the 90's in Phoenix but the "feels like" rating was in the 80's. for us the feels like was higher than the actual temp. i need some sort a head band for the benefit of everyone else on my rides.

Go ride your bike an quit beotching about nice weather. htfu. and wear sun screen.

Tumor under the seat! thats funny. but its true to look at how wide it is in the front. I had that same problem until it wore a hole in the inside thigh of my favorite shorts.
Oh, and stop buying your cycling paraphernalia at Walmart.

Its not a toy its a conveyance.

All I'm going to say in this thread is "they're going there with their friends."

I meant it.

good point.
