The tool box is http://www.planomolding.com/product.php?BCCID=130&PID=926
Same exact box that park tools included in their $900 pk-63 kit.

If you're trying to scare me or anything, it's not working.

You should come ride some climbs in the south bay. Redwood Gulch is calling your name.

Today I got my galaxy S4, having used iphones for so long, a phone's screen has never been so generous to me.

johnnytheboy 04-25-13 09:50 PM

Btw....that dish tool sucks....
i prefer to build up my own tools....I'd never buy a kit like that.

then about a mile from my house some little ****ing prick tweens darted into the street without looking, one kid on foot chasing another kid on a razor scooter.

crashed right into the kid on foot cuz he basically jumped directly in front of my bike, i fell over and thankfully didnt get my skull crushed by a car

kids all like "ow my leg!" mother****er pay attention! if i was a car youd be chopmeat on the front page on tomorrows newspaper right now

****ing kids.

Didn't the kid's parents tell them to look before going out on the street? Not your fault those kids were dumb.

I'm not. I'm just saying you have to come.
You'll be required to wait for me at each summit.

I have not touched the 930 since Sunday, kind of not missing it.

Nagrom_ 04-25-13 10:18 PM

hahaha, I never use strava, and have a reputation for hating climbing.
This made me chuckle.

My driveway's bigger....

Nagrom_ 04-25-13 10:31 PM

There's the problem. I don't have a driveway.

Dannihilator 04-25-13 10:38 PM

Road ride tomorrow instead I think....

Had me lollin.

I sort of wish there were more hills around here. I can go and crank out anywhere between 20-50 miles, and I'm lucky to pass 300 ft of vertical gain.

Nagrom_ 04-25-13 10:49 PM

Hah, it's not that I lack hills. I'm about a mile away from a some great climbing.

But a mile in the other direction and I'm on a wonderfully flat coastline. And that's my problem, haha.

I'm sure if there were real climbs around me, I would end up trying to find the flattest routes possible. Thats how it works, right?

Sadly.

I'm climbing tomorrow though. ugh.

bro 04-25-13 11:32 PM

today i did like two frontflips...

...just got done installing front brake haha

3 weeks into fixed gear riding... brakeless with a sort of aggressive posture on 74 gear inches, and i finally ate ****. just goofing off in my neighborhood trying to see how fast i could go and how fast i could stop safely, found out the answer was no. pretty much if im riding brakeless around here with all the intersections i'd have to go slow which isnt really fun. i plan on ordering front+back brakes as soon as i have the money. for the record later today aaafter eating **** i was riding with my friend and skid-stopped at a light within a couple feet going pretty fast. it was sw8. but its not a super safe or reliable way of stopping for me with my setup... and because i have skateboarder knees and 32c tires i have to lean hella forward and stuff... yeah

def getting brakes/brake for my conversion. if i had a track bike id probably go braekless and just run skinny tires and run like 65 gi, and have a frame that actually fits me haha, my ron kit is a 49cm and i probably need like a 53? but rons top tube is like 56 which is cool. and we have hella bumpy screets so 32c tires are pretty much a must. ill probably build an njs frame up next year.

oh ripped a big hole in my radical leather/crochet colombian 70s cycling gloves.... :(

they still work for riding though, the left one is just pretty destroyed lookin

also this

I'll be climbing tomorrow(sadly).

When you come to the east bay with johnny (when he picks up his wheels), we're gonna go climbing.
You do not have a choice.

If i can get a ride, I should be able to go with you guys.
