Were those Chrome Flakjackets he had on today?

There seems to be some epically ridiclulous chatter about some cyclist that has pushed this epically ridiculous thread onto page 2.

Thoughts?

I can't believe you would throw that in my face. I bear my soul, reveal my sensitive and vulnerable side and you make fun.

I need a hug. Where's pcad?

I guess we won't be seeing Floyd in the North America Cycling Hall of Fame anytime soon eh?

I don't know much about soccer, but I do know if you give up a goal kick from mid-field you pretty much stink.

Also true if you give up 10 points.

I'll fill the void.

There should be a Hall of Infamy.

11 ... but they stopped yelling at me after 10.

I wonder who takes drugs in BF

I almost always take an ibuprofen before I go on a ride. Am I doping?

Inflammation is part of the natural process of muscle building, inflammation is a crucial part of the healing process. Drugs like ibuprofen that reduce that pain also hinder that process. Bad idea to do that on a regular basis.

what is the purpose of taking ibuprofen before a ride. it's a pain killer isn't it?

I'll admit on a few stuffy nosed mornings I've doped up on this stuff:



They are green/white/red, I call them my Mexican EPO, that phenylephrine's got some kick!

Sport tourerish for those of us who can't afford the real deal



Fuzzy camraphone pic but you get the idea...My wife and I went down to 1 car last spring I just bought a new one 2 months ago. The original pla never included going through the winter on the bike

My BP meds could cover if I took steriods...but I can't afford them

This is the reason I hang here...5000+ posts to get 4 great pics and a fact or two along the way. Thanks Pcad!

Is Cadel Evans the ultimate road nazi? Instead of yelling at people he goes straight to the fists.

Cool. So you can appreciate how fast the ST is for a 700lb bike if it's even faster than your 400lb 750cc motorcycle. It's pretty zippy.

Cadel really rides and behaves like a complete moron half the time. I can't figure that guy out.

So, although I am ashamed to say it, I got some clip on aerobars tonight. Some nice Profile t2+ $100 aerobars for $20. Can't beat that. I put them on the Giant to ride home, then switched to the Lotus just for fun. I figure if I hate em, I can flip em, but they seemed fun on the ride home. Fast, and I look fast.

money is the only reason I have not yet purchased a full sized ST machine. They had an old connie 1000 when i bought my bike, but I thought it too big for a first bike. Kinda wish I bought it now.

The old connie sucked. The newer one is far different/better.

Lance wasn't the only notable American cyclist who had a road issue today.

Pcadette had no issues with the SATs. She scored a combined 2010 on the three parts (650 math, 660 verbal, 700 written essay). That puts her in the 94th percentile of college bound HS students. Her scores are high enough that she can apply to schools like Columbia and NYU and actually have a chance of getting in. She also is also in the top 20 in her class of over 450 kids, so she has good grades. I'm very proud of her. When I was in high school I had mediocre grades and my SATs were lower (1210 combined under the old system, that would equate to about 1800 today, but I was a good writer, so figure 1900 or so). I got by on my questionable artistic talent, my matinee idol looks and my cutting edge wit. In other words I was skating on thin friggin ice.

Let's hope that brings some scholarship dough. Because if it doesn't I'll be entering the Bike Schwag Desert for a few years.

Oh wow, I got my SATs. 1550. Oh well, that was my first. I have more chances.
