Fixed.

I felt compelled to watch the Carlos Zambrano apology interview.

When all else fails, go to anger management treatment.

But you actually get one.

Yeah, I sure as hell don't need to see that fluggin' picture again... WTF?!!??!?

Isn't that when Bobke was trying to fit in with the MTB scene? Sheeesh...

You understand these kids like Ryanf and Itchy will seek revenge years from now in some demented way towards geezers.

But for now,
Give me a Kansas bushwacker weather report and get the F off my lawn Mr.Special Handlebars.

"your all idoits"
Pvt.Ryanf

That's special.

Who wants to do that? I would think that this thread would be a great source of encouragement to you.

I gotta own a Vette before I die.

And of course, Jens RULES.

Oh yeah, nice and achy this morning.

I need to stretch.

49 miles this morning for me already you friggin lazy freds.

30ish here. Average when I got home was 19.5 mph, and that includes 4-5 miles solo each way on the path at <15mph and then walking my bike into the building. People were pushing the pace hard this morning.

0 miles this morning. I'm about to bike to work though, that's .83 and 120 feet of climbing.

BTW, training groups for the Marine Corp marathon started last weekend. The paths are suddenly packed with runners like a gym in January. I ride the path 4-5 miles to avoid commuter traffic on the way to my morning rides, but I may have to start changing that.

How come on my bike the brake shoes have the screw in the front on my rear wheel and in the back on the front wheel?

Seems like they should be the same.

Hopefully in a couple of weeks I'll get off my lazy arse and start riding to work. 5.4 miles, probably 3 feet of elevation gain...

Meh, it'll save some money and maybe I'll treat each trip as a sprint.

0 for me, and I'm lazy, and a fred.

7 mile commute and a flat this morning.

Lezyne Pressure Drive kicks ass. Glad I had all 100 grams of it strapped to my downtube.

That elitist thread has really become painful.

The unwashed masses are in mutiny. The ship is scuttled.

Maybe it's relative to how the brakes mount to the bike?

Blah. I'm tired of fighting a battle based on concept.

I did 25 miles last night and woke up today with a sore behind my knee thing. i'm too young to have aching joints

That's the question: why mount the brake shoes with the open end pointing one direction on the front wheel and the opposite way on the rear wheel?

I realize my scientific cycling questions threated to overload the Fred circuitry here and shut down the entire system.

When you're on the outside looking in, you wish you were on the inside. Once you're inside, you realize the inside kind of sucks. Such is life.
