Today I went for a 12mi easy ride. Knee still isn't at 100% but at least I could soft pedal. :|

I wouldn't push it.

warm gf and ice

Also realized that the ergonovas are skinnier at the hoods than they are rated at. Perfect. Now I need to buy new bars and bar tape again. I hate bikes.

Are they uncomfortable?

Feel a little odd, haven't been on them long enough to know if they're uncomfortable though.

Nagrom_ 03-24-13 02:11 PM

I'd ride em for a bit?

Today I am making pot roast, dyeing my hair, and watching basketball. Lazy Sunday.

Last night was amazing. My friends are the best. And in certain instances, their friends are too. Only downside was the cold walk home this morning.

Today I, switched my fizik Arione from the Wabi to my Brooks swift and pushed out 64mi. The weather is FINALLY starting to warm up.

Today I found a horse that matches my bar tape:

first ride on the roadie (first one since about '87).

still needs some fit tweaking, but the maiden voyage was a lot of fun.

Do it, and then rebuild the beater with old parts. N+1.

And after looking at the weather forecast, and seeing that its going to be up near 50 at the end of the week, I am super excite. Haven't been able to get out and put in a longer road ride in like two months. Closest I had to any real saddle time was an hour and a half on a trainer. And that sucked. I'll take 50 deg and windy out on a real road over an 80 deg apartment where I have to stay in the same place.

Today I tried to start the corvette. The battery didn't last the winter. Was able to jump it to get it to start, so I knew it wasn't completely gone, drove it for an hour (so much ****ing gas), but the charge wouldn't hold. Pulled the battery and hooked it up to a charger for the day. Started up better than the day it was bought.

If you've ever pulled a battery on a '67 corvette you know how much ****ing trouble it is.

cars man why

Just found a website that sells reproduction sunglasses, and they have Oakley Jawbones for under $20. Not sure if I should go for it or not.

Dannihilator 03-24-13 09:07 PM

Today I put in a very productive street ride in on the dmr, feel like I'm in form for the season, so sure enough getting snow overnight through tomorrow.

SS_Giant 03-24-13 09:31 PM

snow storm is currently leaving its trace in sw ohio. lucky for me my bike is unrideable and in shop after cutting the steerer tube turned into a full blown botch job (lbs is paying for a new one)

anyone have luck getting a replacement for the stock kilo fork?
