I'm hard put to climb out of bed some mornings.

That would be interesting if they televised an actual Viking funeral--more so than a football game.

I'm having Norweigan Breakfast tomorrow morn!

For example...Road shoes....who does not work on their bike...your first ride of 2013...your last ride of 2012...what bike do you have..transporting bike by air...:eek:

And you wonder why we hang out here

I was thinking Lemond Reno, of course, which had me thinking you were making contradictory statements.

I ate a plate of food at 3:30 pm today. Sucks for me. I wasn't hungry, but it was tasty.

Fat people eat two dinners.

Lester, did you end up watching Safety Not Guaranteed? I bought the thing to see it, as I could never find it for rent.

That and they eat non stop between meals. I had a 400 pound patient swear to me she ate small healthy meals. She did not mention until later the 2 bags of Moose crunch eaten every day between meals.

Chorus 10 rules. My favorite from Campy so far. Best part about riding the rain bike. Even Peter with the Campy tattoo couldn't get my Record 11 to shift like Chorus 10. Non issue now, which is nice.

I have the Record 10, absolutely love it. Had to rebuild the brifter once and replace 1 cable......in 8 years!

The Mavics?

Interesting stats....http://www.strava.com/athletes/125154

Thats an average of 17.14 mph over a period of 402 hrs cycling.
I thought Lance would be faster than that.

Was that a cry for help concerning an eating disorder or are you just despondent your inanimate child is going under the knife and you can't be there, sbxx?

Yep, $80 was low enough to take a chance on them.

miyata man 01-05-13 11:05 PM

Going to try to get in a good amount of riding over the next week. Did an 80 miler by mid January last year and the weather looks to be cooperating for one this year.

The bike? I'll be there.

LesterOfPuppets 01-05-13 11:16 PM

I'd really love to go to Belgium and check out one of these olde bike shows someday...

Why?

miyata man 01-05-13 11:40 PM

I prefer doing invigorating youthful activities instead of acting like a child.
