Synvisc injection #2 tonight. Those shots are odd. First one didn't hurt at all. This one hurt like a motherfarger. Depends on whether he hits a nerve I suppose. But he always gets the drug into the joint capsule, and I feel the positive effects immediately. Those shots are like a miracle drug for me.

There should be a thread of best Bob Roll quotes.... just heard his reply to the question, What makes a good descender? "Balance......and, ah.. um.... knowing the descent."

The guy is brilliant.

Next time eat that bar before you actually go out, you can't accumulate negative kJ's, fatty.

what about just straight line descending. no skill or line needed. are you fast?

or you could go with Esquire's take...

See, Roll's appeal can be distilled down to one singular trait: He is positively terrible, a man whose mouth has no filter and whose body showcases more physical tics than a bloodhound lost in the woods. But he is so terrible -- so unprofessional, so individual, so bewildering -- that he's become one of the funniest and most authentic color men working today.

Hey Pcad,

Why don't you try this?

Open up your BikeForums password for a couple days--we'll see what happens. Do it in the interest of social science.

It's either I'm more aero than all the Road Nazis or heavier. I think it's the latter.

Not for nothing, but when you Freds drop your chain on Mt. Doom, I'm not waiting for you idiots either.

A friend of mine just got back from Turkey and England. I asked for one thing: Flake bars. He brought me one. I savored it, literally ate it over half an hour. Good stuff.

Nice little recovery ride today. Took it slow, easy. Did another 10 hard miles during my lunch break but forgot the garmin on my desk.

Decided to throw a couple sprints in, but I couldn't get them to where they usually are.

You see the speed/hr/cadence spikes on the charts, but it says (you can see it on splits) that I got the final sprint up to 32.5. Usually I can do about 36.

I just popped in over there. I was the only person. I think I heard crickets.

Wut?

That's gonna eat into your Madone fund.

Gullible

The most pompous and elitist thing I've read on here in a long while.

Well that sucks. Got home from Oregon today, shot home, kitted up, and hit the street. 5 miles in I got a Charlie horse in my right guad, OH EFF ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I worked it for a while and it started to loosen up. Then the other side lit up. Cripes! I cant even walk right now. This blows. I guess I should do a longer warm up after a week long absence from riding.

If it was expensive wine I would agree, however if it was thunderbird.......

Wus

It was almost bearable until the cramp started to pull my knee cap, jeebus that hurt. I had to push it back down and rub the muscle with my elbow to get it to stop.
I might be wrong but I think I may be just a tad dehydrated.

before or after the madone?

Free or no new bike. Ever.

Maybe he meant dance

I've actually never had that happen on a bike. I would probably just tip over.

I used to have a shirt that describes Razor to a tee.
It said. Some people tell me that I have a.d.d BUt I dont think, hey look a chicken!

At a couple of points, that actually started to sound like a good idea.
