Dibs on your PT and Joule 2.0 setup?

Cancellara said that heat is harder for him because he's a big guy. I think I'll add that to the quiver of excuses.

You can never have enough. You start with a quiver, and by the time you're my age, it's a duffle bag.

That's because I have no way of knowing what person I have never heard of before on FB is actually midget from BF. PM me here, tell me what your actual name is, and I'll accept your FB friend request.

And I'm sure I will live to regret this magnanimous gesture.

I'm about to hit 41K posts. I'd look back to give botto the BF Post Count 'look', but whenever I try, he's so far behind me I can't even see him.

Some day I will share my Top Secret BF Post Inflation Secrets with you Freds.

I did, and now I can't find you. What did you do? You're very secretive.

Frame, wheels, components, good.

Seatpost, stem, awful.

Bars are ok, but not great.

yeah, fit for a box.

patentcad 07-10-10 07:44 PM

Who give a rat's ass about the seatpost and friggin stem? Good grief. That bike is nice.

Death is far less complicated than life. And life is over rated.

They are crucial you know.

mzeffex 07-10-10 07:47 PM

Oh, and 400 pages looms.

patentcad 07-10-10 07:49 PM

Thank God I have Le Tour to distract me from the Mets implosion, which is occurring 55 days ahead of schedule this year. That team sucks worse at pro baseball than I suck at amateur racing, if you can even imagine such a thing.

And don't underestimate how much that latter setup juices up a middle aged love life with a little video porn on occasion.

On occasion. You know. Like once a month whether I need it or not.


OH god, how do I get those imiages out of my head?

They are designed to be indelible. They will haunt you always. Until you are 50 and married for 20 years or so, and you'll say 'that Pcad, he knew what he was talking about'. Just hope and pray that when you're my age:

• you can still get it up without chemical assistance

• you love the woman you're married to enough to want to make love to her

• she feels the same way

• you're not dead yet

patentcad 07-10-10 07:55 PM

Of course, none of you are ever going to live to be my age. I'll dance on all your friggin graves.

And yet we muddle along.

75 miles of muddling today. No where near the speeds of yesterday, I guess its back to my regularly scheduled suck fest.

Oh and I missed the hell of a ride today, eff me! 100 miles of pure sufferage, and I slept in. good God I suck.

Hell, I am not that far from your age now. dance away, as long as I dont have to see it.

Now you start to give out good advice. Always keep 'em guessing.

Does BF no longer allow hotlinking?

The terrible photos taken by my mom. Oh well.

It could be worse - you could be here in Brewers territory.
