I made the most damn ugly piece out of spokes.

avner 05-25-11 10:21 AM

for a moment I thought you said "I made out with the most ugly" and I was like "wat?"

Nothing beats a 5AM ride. Seriously, what's better than the roads being so empty that I can sprint all out on my roadie in the middle of the road? :D

I assume I know the answer, but I thought I'd ask.

Going home, or going to work? Late night or early morning?

Just for the heck of it. WHAT!?!?!? On a weekday???? You can bet your eggs and sausages on it. :lol:

Went for a short ride, cursed the humidity, came home and watched trailer park boys. Now I'm drinking coffee, waiting to don my chef's jacket and go into my second day of work.

I finished a climb that, before today, I hadn't yet been able to finish without stopping. :) (I'm a new rider.)

It was just the first time I did it down here; nice and wide urban sprawl streets. Gotta love it for biking aside from having to drive 20mins just to get anywhere.

MrJay 05-25-11 04:04 PM

Uhh..today I got a promotion right before I was about to quit.

I'm still going to quit though. Just gotta decide when.

Bethany 05-25-11 04:07 PM

I let my son get his temporary license and let him drive around a few blocks. I'm not ready for this. He can do 35mph down a local hill with his bike and I don't completely panic, yet he's driving 20mph through the neighborhood and I'm on the edge of my seat hoping he doesn't hit anything. Go figure.

yummygooey 05-25-11 05:40 PM

Today I spent the whole day working on a project that really only took me an hour. Lol. I have to make a presentation next week or something.

stovb 05-25-11 06:13 PM

Today I started a regular sleep schedule again, and I have been working since Monday

jdgesus 05-25-11 07:52 PM

today i had a sustained transfer rate faster then gigabit net connections via bike

rustybrown 05-25-11 08:01 PM

...contemplated making a social networking.

Leukybear 05-26-11 12:13 AM

Supposedly the left rear light on my car is out and the nearest dealer is 25 miles away.... This calls for a ride! :D
Only problem is no company makes racks for it for some odd reason and I'll have to find a way to fit my roadie in the rear seats without tearing up the interior. Sounds easy? I have my work set out considering it's a two door, low, and the interior used to go moo.

Gotti 05-26-11 01:58 PM

Today one of the atty's at my work asked me to go to the deli to get him a sandwich and a drink. WTF!?! That's not my effin job dude, do it yourself.( I said that in my head of course) I couldn't spit in his sandwich so I took his drink and rubbed it all over my balls. How does that taste, *****.

That guy is a dick by the way, had he been cooler, I would've been okay with it

Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes hurtling down the highway.

Sounds like that applies to bikes, too!

Retail.
Soul-sucking, morale-crushing retail.

I took the job to pay rent during college.
Now that college is over and I have enough saved in my reserve fund to pay rent/expenses for the remainder of my lease, I have no reason to stay.

Dannihilator 05-26-11 06:12 PM

Today I went and suffered through a very hot day at the pumptrack.

xavier853 05-26-11 07:09 PM

Today, I am sick. Seems to be just a lot of sinus and headaches.

Hopefully I can knock this out for the first real rain free weekend (and upcoming week).

Yep, it was over 100 in the kitchen today. Murder.
