I am not a party to an alleged deal.

Speaking of Kiffin, I'm sure he has no idea what's going on here.

Is there a way to "ignore" an entire thread? I gotta admit, everytime I see that thread about the recreational rider with a "$10k budget for a new bike", I throw up a little.

Self control?

No. No we wouldn't.

Bingo.

Maybe if Pcad and his "band" hit the big time, they can perform here next year.

Same here. Generally the best policy is to ignore it. They don't have the "like/dislike" functionality for BF yet...and I hope they never do.

It was just a suggestion. Self control is over rated anyway.

You know you want to go for a plastic bike so quit fighting it. You can keep the 8 speed and move up in the world to disc brakes and something with a completely different type of ride. Not to mention half the weight.

LesterOfPuppets 01-03-13 04:46 PM

8-speed? Try 18-speed 3x6 !!! :)

Velo Vol 01-03-13 04:54 PM

Is miyata man fast or slow?

miyata man 01-03-13 04:55 PM

It's worse than I could have even imagined. I'll have you know that a circa '00 8 speed XT drivetrain is not so far gone you'd lose all of your retro-grouch genes in the process. :eek:

ask him to post the picture of him trying on his new helmet

miyata man 01-03-13 04:57 PM

Whatever I am I don't need a deceptive twitter byline to be it, VV.

That was a purposely bad picture that I had a feeling would confuse some and maybe actually cause others to laugh. I'll post it if you make me.

It made me laugh, so congrats!

LowCel 01-03-13 05:04 PM

I saved Izzy's life a little bit ago and now he is connected to me. Either giving me kissies or setting on my lap. Poor little guy, he is so grateful for my braveness. :D

miyata man 01-03-13 05:07 PM

Don't let it be said I'm a bad sport.

we can say a lot of things about you, but "bad sport" is certainly not one of them.
