Nice 35 mile ride this evening, even if I did end up soaking wet. Weather said 0% chance of rain until 10:00 tonight, they sure screwed that one up.

(whispers) i think someone is watching us!!!

The press releases are getting harder to keep a straight face through. I would willingly get behind her if asked but trying to believe that recruiting "model" citizens is a key part of the security is frankly laughable.

i'm boycotting any and all references to "the wedding i don't care about" as well

This is apparently a 2012 S prototype.

what is the quickest most efficient way to clean a cassette on a roadbike? i feel like the way i do this is taking too long, and that there is most likely an easier way.

if this requires buying a tool i might be okay with that. it will bring my total household tool count up to four.

i might have justification for a tool chest if this happens.

Simple green and a brush of some type should take care of it.

Degreaser and a paint brush. Leaving messages where your stalker will find them might be efficient as well.

Agree. I rinse it off after that too.


(oh my goodness that's twice now)

The simple green for airplanes that won't eat the finish I think you mean. I use a citrus based degreaser and a park tool brush made for the job

i've been using a rag, i'll try the brush

thanks

VG, twss

wut

Uh huh.

Penguins out, yeah!!

Righto. Lennard Zinn taught us that regular Simple Green is corrosive.

I can never find the Simple Green Motorsports, so I typically get the Finish Line citrus degreaser.

I use the Finish Line stuff too.

Why is Jeepnut22 so excited about a penguin coming out of the closet?

He must be anticipating some celebrating. This is how its done right. Give it a good stroke and continue to cup till the explosion is over.

wut!

Oh my. You could put someone's eye out with that.

So step back a little, you'll still be to tell everyone you saw jeepnut.

Nope, just regular simple green that you buy at any store. I have been using it for years as has most bike shops that I know of. Works perfect. I have used it when working at a shop as well, never had a complaint.

I have used regular simple green straight on every bike I have ever owned and I have never had the first problem. I spray it straight on the paint of my Colnago on a regular basis.
