got my girlfriend a kilo tt...

Straws 12-29-07 07:49 PM

damn. I was headed to Carytown burgers to get some food. I did a quick trackstand at a light because the car on the other side of the intersection had the right of way. My new soma quad clips are much longer than I'm used to and I gut stuck in some toe overlap and fell over. And I broke my ****ing red blinky. Maybe it's time to get a knog.

NeilMonday 12-29-07 09:18 PM

ah man 0 mph wipeouts are the worst. I pretty much gave up on trackstands because I was never very good at them and I was way too focused on not falling over rather than paying attention to traffic. Knogs seem like they can withstand a beating better than other lights I've used. I say go for it. BTW I just put my Major Taylors on my bike. check my sig for some pix.

damn those are a beaut. I dont have the right style bike for them but they're so damn hot.

Anything big going on for New Years?

Straws 12-30-07 01:27 PM

people were talking about carytown but there's supposed to be over 10,000 people there so I dont know about that.

lordgold 12-30-07 03:40 PM

I'm in Williamsburg, and it's been raining the past 4 days non-stop. It's killing me.

But as far as Carytown on NYE, I doubt I'll be going. It's a lot of fun, but I don't want to deal with the crowds.

I got flip-flop 29er wheels that are on the fixed cross bike and Cane Creek SCR levers. And I'll be at Carytown. It might rock? ;)

Carytown will be the rock!
Also I think that there were some talks of rota/slot whoever get together pre carytown and roll up there super deep! Then I plan on throwing water balloons at everybody to ring in the new year!

Please bring an extra one for me as I have misplaced mine. I can guarantee you will not be water ballooned.

Even without water balloons it will be the jam! Super stoked.

Carytown was fun, but why didn't the ball drop?

As for BFSSFG members, I saw someone on a Bianchi with white rims. He also had another bike on his back (couldn't tell from a distance).

in richmond they raise the ball. I think its because when the ball is at the bottom then like 75% of the people can't see it because of the buildings. I'm not totally sure though.

My gf and I use one car to go to Richmond from Norfolk, and she needed the car to do something the same time you guys were hanging out. I could have biked there, but I probably would have been to tired to do anything else/oh and thanks!

Did you guys end up chucking water balloons? I was infront of glass and powder tryin to keep an eye out for you hooligans.
