In bike related news, the new build was coming along swimmingly until I broke the fork. Homemade headset press kind of worked, and assisted by cursing, got the headset installed. But homemade crown race installation tool and piss poor installation skills ended up with fork slipping and snapping the dropouts off. Bad day bad day. Reminds me of my college failure analysis days, and the impracticality of bending cast iron.
New fork en route. At least the replacement was cheaper and with free shipping.

Someone suggested I can do miy own easily. But after you use one of these web design sites, you still have to get someone to host it right?

It appears my Marketplace transaction has died. No communication from the seller, after we agreed on a price. Another person is inquiring. My whinging over $10 backfired.
Oh well. Gives me an excuse to go to the LBS and test the Romin Pro. First saddle was a Specialized and I had a free BG fit last year that recommended the 143mm Romin. I think.

I cut my own fork for the MTB. It was easy - used a pipe cutter. But, it was steel. I'd probably take a carbon fork to the LBS.

Be a little careful. My favorite saddle is a Romin Expert 143mm. Apparently, in the new Romin EVO, I should get a 155mm. I got this from the interweb, and from my LBS, which they apparently got from Specialized. Why measure my butt bones if the scale is arbitrary? My 143 is currently turned in for a potential warranty replacement, so I will ideally be able to confirm width discrepancies shortly.
Ride a saddle at the LBS for 30 days and return it for a full refund or another one if it doesn't work out. One advantage of supporting the LBS over the old team pricing or internets.

In terms of weight gain, there are a whole lot of things worse for you than whole milk. Bread, for instance. Beer, for instance. Soda, for instance (diet or otherwise).
Yeah, I know - blasphemy.
Even better.
Nice.

Kingfisher had an F1 team and an Airline.
The strong is good the regular is weak.
Im not supposed to be drinking beer because it makes me fat. So this is a rare review for me.
The wife is ok with red wine and the Indian brands are not to bad.
