Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Today my buddy got off work early and wanted to capture some footage with his go pro.

I said, lets go ride the one hill in this suburb. Wonder if it turned out

Btw, where did you order from? I'm going to poop myself if they have a 57.
Shagadelic, baby ! Yeah, I was thinking about you when I ordered and they have a 59cm but no 57cm >>> https://www.cycleclubsports.com/case...oma+rush+track I assume a 55cm is too small for you. As you can see I got the only 49cm they had, since it no longer appears in the list. I had to pay Texas sales tax, because they are located in Texas, but my guess is that anyone outside Texas would not pay state sales tax, so the deal would be even better.

Today I returned from Pa. 10 out of the 11 days were hard road rides, one where I was climbing up one of the Appalachian Mountains. Needless to say I'm taking a few days of rest from road rides.....

I love my rollers. Been riding em every night. It forces me to use my calves and hamstrings a lot more than when I ride on the road. Hopefully my pedal stroke will get less assy soon.

Today while out doing a few quick errands in Salem, I locked my bike up for a minute to run into a little coffee shop to grab a latte (yes, I enjoy a good latte every now and again), relax and enjoy the nice weather. Upon seating myself outside, I see a mom and her gaggle of little kids coming down the sidewalk across the street. One of the little ****s decides it would be a great idea to throw a rock at some pigeons nearby and wouldn't you know it - his aim was insanely bad and the rock hits my bike like a Kagero-seeking missile.

My first sensible reaction (there were many unsensible ones which needed to be repressed) was get up and yell "Are you serious???" and she responded "Kids will be kids!" in one of the most annoying nasally voices I've ever heard with a nervous smile on her face. I think she could tell by the look on my face (sometimes that's really all it takes) that a murder was about to occur because she gathered up her brats and scurried around the corner very quickly. I had to just take a deep breath and sit back down. My latte suddenly tasted like piss and vinegar.

touch up paint? But That sucks.

A wise man once said ""old paint with lots of scratches is cool. new paint with one scratch sucks."

I will accept only part of the blame for that.

Scrod: That blows, but now it looks ridden, right?

Today I am exhausted. I've been up for 25 hours, and six of them were drinking with Kaz and friends. Time for bed.

Going to actually consider that when I have some income again. I went out to Chicago once and had a blast.
