Did some wrenching. Ate some Indian. Hung with an awesome friend. Found out I need new pedals ASAP. There's a local shop that has All-City track pedals, 4-hole clips, and leather doubles. I may have to grab a set.

the fixielash, it is upon us. fixed wheels and some other parts are starting to be donated to the co-op more frequently

Builds for RG customers. Thankfully, Angie saved me and built the last two. One of the many reasons she rules.

I didn't know you guys did that many wheel builds; that's really awesome.

I would give you my wheel build business, scord, but it wouln't make sense to ship you my hubs and then have you ship me back my wheels

To my LBS!

Today I had one of those days where I was mad the whole day for no reason.

Worked.

Stopped to grab some beer on the way home from work.

Sat my ass down on the couch and turned on the TV.

Currently working on downing first bottle.

Today would have been a friend of mine's birthday. He died a few weeks ago after losing his battle to cancer. I also had to freeze my ass off for 2 hours because of marching band. Thank god its the end of the season tomorrow.

That's really sad, man :( .

Tonight I'm going to the Macklemore & Ryan Lewis Concert

I love those days. I went through a few during the summer and my friend took me to some punk shows to let off steam. it was fun

yeah... I really wanted to just ride harder than a ************ instead of school.

Today I (with a little help) installed new brake cables, housing, cross levers, and bar tape on my cross bike.

I also took the rear brake off Pikachu. No more ugly cable clips, I'm so happy.

Looks great kaz!

Today I realized my frame is bent. The other day when riding on a trail at night I hit this small tree/large branch that was fallen down and flew forward over my bars. Since then I had been riding other bikes just cause that bike has clipless and I had been riding to class and other stuff when I didn't want to wear my clipless shoes. Today I was riding the small tree bike and leaned against the wall to admire and then "oh god what the f*!#!?!?!?!?!" ))): The top tube and down tube are slightly curved by the head tube, it's still rideable but I hate it and don't wanna ride it. Luckily christmas is just around the corner. Time to start saving for a new track frame I guess...

Yea, today was a little rougher after I realized it.

Check out the Soma Rush in the Great Deals thread. If I needed a track frame I'd take a good look at that one. Actually, I'd probably just get it.

Ran a 7:30 mile. Pretty proud of that.

You're really making me look forward to it

one of my favorites by him. i'm jelly.

I was second row in :D Snapped a couple cellphone pics haha.

That last picture is amazing! Love it.

Thanks!

Sweet pics! Sounds like a fun night :)

Yeah it was, looks like you had an awesome night too!

We gotta get some of the out of state BFSSFG guys out here to CA and go riding.

I got hit by a car last night going just under 20mph.

It. Was. Awesome. #streetcred #bikerbadge I'm a solid 190lbs, so I was fine and the bike was fine (though the brooks handlebar tape did get ripped :( ). The car's rear fender got all messed up though :D

Though, here is the question: if/when that happens to you guys (jdgesus) and the person is human enough to stop and concern themself with you, do you guys ever grab their insurance info even if you're totally okay?

I would, you may not realize an injury for a few hours or a few days even.

make an insurance claim, they'll pay out for your bar tape, and etc etc... plus goto doctor, make them bill their insurance (not you)

just have the doc check you over. also, take bike to LBS for checking, the car insurance ppl will pay out (and they paid out fast for me)

glad you're OK! 20mph is pretty fast. the last wreck i was under 10mph and it still knocked me out and sent me to the ER (and killed my bike)

The car's rear fender was messed up? Are you sure it wasn't you who hit the car?

The car could've backed into him? I get nervy when I see a car's reverse lights come on, I always make sure the person sees me.

Today I went on a short 8 miler with my wife. Stopped by her school for more plant cuttings and I saw a draft lite locked up that was missing the post/saddle and stem/bars. Unless the person is ultra diligent and attached to those specific parts, I think they're gone.
