This conversation degraded so fast when I immediately thought the following:
She wants to use my good cog (to my friends on BFSSFG)?!?!?!
He wants to use my other ---------------- (to all her friends at Applebees) ?!?!!??!?!

Let her have the cog mate, let her have it.

Except that there's a dude selling a FTP with Omniums for like $800. I'm so torn!

Fish craigslist for a caad9 with ultegra or 105. You will not be disappointed.

Ready to be all fancy at restaurants now!

It barely pays a third of what my day job pays, but I still like it!

A cog is a cog, dude.

Not necessarily, depends, if it's made by Spacely's Sprockets or a Cogswell's Cogs ?

LOL, I thought all couples had their own private stashes of goodies at the very least.

I'd forgotten about those.

True...

It's hard to find decent bikes in my area in my size (Chicago, 61cm)

That's often just a matter of taste. My wife doesn't eat the same foods I do, and vice-versa.

I kinda like it. I don't like the wind though.

I love riding in the rain.

jdgesus 04-12-12 11:06 PM

lol rain

gigantor 04-12-12 11:07 PM

Rain is free hydration. Jay is just exercising his right to HTFU.

FakeFuji 04-12-12 11:23 PM

Riding in the rain is not bad to me except when it affects driver visibility and having been tboned by a car i don't really want to relive the experience.

Muffin Man 04-12-12 11:39 PM

Visited colleges in southern california this last week, apparently i missed out on a lot of raim back home.

I commuted in a mild but somewhat heavy snowstorm one morning. It was actually kind of nice; I found it surprisingly peaceful, and the temperature was nice and brisk without being horribly cold.

I had nicked the top tube a while ago ..... while cleaning some stuff out in the garage I found a roll of clear 3M wrap I had laying around. So I wrapped the top tube with it, hopefully it'll help.

I feel like it's almost worth it to keep an eye on the Milwaukee craigslist too. I see a lot of tall bikes on there.

Went dumpster diving. Came out with 40lbs of bread and a 30lb bag of almonds. Interesting
