Today I went to work and played bikes. Loving this new job. They're ok with me leaving early in the day to get riding in. Then I log in when I get home to keep working if need be.

Sad but true. 95% of the people there expect every girl who has ever joined to have posts in GW. Its sort of sad and pathetic.

for some reason I always think coaster brake when I see "coasty" or "coastie"...

But I'm assuming a freewheel or freehub was in use in the above scenario.

Best story ever.

Considering re-wrapping my drops before the weather gets warm again. Thinking about bright orange tape, just cause.

I would swear that *everyone* in Portland has a bicycle and 1/2 of them ride them daily.

It's cold and rainy as hell today and not a F was given. Ride bikes like it's sunny and 70.

Also...the grungy thing. Not sure how I feel about that.

Is that a good thing or a bad thing? :lol:

LesterOfPuppets 02-22-13 08:05 PM

I know that feel, bro. :(

Today I ordered wheels for my new build, and they're already out for shipping.

Dannihilator 02-22-13 08:08 PM

Today I threw a new freewheel on the dmr and toyed around on that. Also found what was causing the rear wheel to squeak on the 930. Non-drive side bearing was shot. So mended that.

Dannihilator 02-22-13 11:38 PM

I kind of want a civilian ramble.

Tell her that it makes you happy. She wants you to be happy, right? If that doesn't work, buy some cheaters that make them look a size or two bigger. If she doesn't notice, you're silver. If she likes it, you're golden. Or, lose or break a plug, go to a shop that you know has a limited selection, find one you like that's the size you're shooting for. "Babe, I looked, but the only ones I liked were this size that's bigger."

Mumonkan 02-23-13 06:20 AM

haha thats great, i sense you have experience in this field

jimmytango 02-23-13 09:15 AM

Yeah, the first option usually works for me, but in the interest of being a good husband, I agreed to stop at 1".

Muffin Man 02-23-13 11:10 AM
