Figure that into your per capita income.

My last parking in central london cost me £80. oh wait, that was the fine.

Riding a motorcycle in NY City is like the most fun video game EVER except you can get killed.

On the other hand, for Mets fans death holds no fear. It would be a release.

Time to ride.

Addiction to bike gear does not cause leg pain. Addiction to riding does. Why are my thighs still hurting 2 days after the weekend rides? This has never happened before.

If you ride every day like you should, you will never experience pain that lasts more than 24 hrs from your previous ride.

darn, I always kinda imagined you were a bus driver ( a double decker of course!)

Looking at Ebay Carbon frames... They look good and from what i hear they wear good. Selling my MTB to afford one!

Wow. After all you said about how you love your mountain bike, you're going to sell it to get a no name frame?

I think they solve the problem by never stopping drinking.

So, what are the main bullet points for upgrading from a 3GS with iOS4 to an iPhone4? I mean, real reasons, not this video phone schlock.

The real reason is 'It's the schizits'!! (can a mod say that?)

MY problem is if I stick with Verizon and get a droid phone I'm stuck with it for 2 years, during which time Verizon will surely pick up the iphone deal.

And NO, makes no sense to me to switch from the best network to an inferior one just to get the iphone.

But I want it sooooo bad.

He did race the Trek & scuff it up. I think it's done.

My wife wants an iPad for her b-day. Given her tolerence for my swag addiction, I must now buy one. Is there anything I should know? Do they all come with 3G now? Will there be a 4G iPad soon?

so i got shelled on this mornings ride and felt ****ty about it because the first half felt easy then i got dropped on the second half. turns out the first half felt easy because we had a tail wind and the sectioned averaged 26.2 mph. we turned around into a head wind and i got shelled in 6 minutes. those 6 minutes had a 29.2 average. I think the best thing I ever did was turn off the speed display on the garmin and only check it when i get home. if i had seen those speeds i would've been shelled much sooner.
