Jaci said that’s a birthday candle tied to the beer.
I appear to be wearing an MS 150 windbreaker under my HH shell. I used to raise a lot of money for the event so I was always getting free stuff. One year I was the 22nd highest fundraiser out of over 7,000 people. Total with employer match was over $8,000.

Ordered up a set of unused demo Reynolds ATR 700s from MBS for literally the same amount as the nicer HED alloys.

Uggh. RIP Seahawks.
I thought we had an easy season wrap up. I hope we can beat the Jets.

Full disclosure: I think you bought some wheels but you might as well be talking about the nuances of wormholes.
Now I know how @seedsbelize feels.

Oooh, the new ones have improved ground clearance, but plastic body instead of wood has to kill the sound.

I can too, but would probably crash and die.
Had a nice ride with my wife today. She has finally gotten comfortable with clipless pedals. On the other hand lots of high strung women out making me feel inferior.
While we were stopped, two guys on high zoot crabon jobs, flew past us. Got to hear the sound that was mentioned the other day. Much different than metal bikes.
And, a question. When shifting to a smaller cog, I sometimes get a chirping sound. Typically on the smaller cogs. Chain is waxed and lubed with Clean Ride between waxing. Chain is otherwise silent. Makes no noise going to a larger cog. Any ideas?
