Solo?
Anything more than an hour long ride and I really prefer to ride with another person, even if the ride is in silence.

Spent $100 on a HR monitor, $50 on a mechanic's ratchet set, then an unexpected $450 to get my truck registered (I was expecting $250 TOPS). Then my road bike tire decided to develop a big ole bulb-like growth in the sidewall (during the most important 2-week period of training for the 2012 season), feels like it could pop any minute. I just posted a message on my team's bulletin board asking if anyone had a spare tire. They probably think I'm a junkie or something... lol.

11 months, actually. It was because I had to buy a whole new tag, I guess. Some counties are more expensive than others.
Meanwhile, in the road forum: https://www.bikeforums.net/showthread...es-and-Watches
I really try (occasionally) to post over there. We just come from different worlds.
I really, really want to take a few weeks off from work this summer to bike in the mountains. I was thinking Colorado, but I have a potential place to sleep in Oregon. One of the few perks of being a kitchen manager.. (unpaid) vacations.

Although you may be new to racing, you might find yourself to be more like-minded to folk over there than the layman roadie.
The 41 sucks.

OK OK I'll admit it... I have absolutely no grasp of the number system in these here forums. I don't know what 33 or 41 means. >.<

Didn't come out at all like I expected. I was hoping for a raised, rubbery finished. I might as well have used spray paint. Also, massive overspray because of the wind. I need a garage.

I have ideas for the next one. I think I'll setup some sort of rig to stretch the fabric, and I'm going to use a LOT more tape to affix the stencil. Oh, and not spray outdoors.
