today my elbow is so swollen i look like i have 2 elbows.. sprained it last night when i ran over an unseen clear plastic bottle.. it caused the wheel to turn hard and dump me over the handlebars
ps spraining your elbow sucks.. pps i bailed right in front of IMinusD's shop.. luckily it was late at night so only one person saw |
Today I replaced my rear tire and tube, then rode up to Antrim Lake here in columbus. Fun ride!

Today I cleaned up 2 different kid's puke, 1 in the pool and 1 on the deck. That was pretty excellent.
Also purchasing bibs/jerseys tonight. Excited. |

Today I had to make the call of shame thanks to a busted spoke on the front wheel. No I couldn't compensate for the broken spoke, radial laced wheel.
|
Today I bought a new professional grade waffle iron. Breakfast at home will never be the same.
|

|
Only for amateurs.

it comes with not owning a professional waffle maker |
Competitive waffle making?

Spent the whole weekend with the lady. MSI, friend's 21st bday, tapas, WHITE CASTLE, dim sum, steak sandwiches, X-Men, ridiculously long (50+ people) line for doughnuts and coffee. Good weekend.
I just realized how much food I at this weekend. So glad I'm not a competitive athlete or on some sort of training program. |
Also looked more into the 944 and decided I didn't want to spend $1000+ on preventative maintenance per year.
Now considering other 80s cars that are cool. Suggestions? And yes, I'm currently looking for something that runs well for now but could use some basic mods for increased fun factor. ImChris, you hit the nail right on the head with your BMW example. |

To this was a great weekend despite being too sick to really go out at night. Friday consisted of getting off work, coming home to a lot of family and spending the night playing video games and drinking cough syrup.
Saturday I slept in and went down the street to eat papusas then went a little further down the street to see the start of the "World Naked Bike Ride" where a lot of sqrl's I know showed up nearly neked, looking swell. (I didn't take pics.) Went home, played video games then went to the Spoke'n Art ride to check out my friends art that he got to show at the gallery/bike co-op. On my way over via car I got a text from a friend who went down the night before and his hand got gnarled so I went over to see him and hung out with a couple other friends there. Got home really late. This morning I woke up really early to give one of my rida friends a lift to leave on a week long tour from SF to LA, came home, player vidya games for a couple hours before I took a nap and had a weird dream. Then some sqrls I know from riding hit me up to go to lunch in DTLA, hung out in DTLA for a little bit and went over to another event organized by some ridazz and listened to old school hip hop drinkin' hefe. Just got home and had a beautiful weekend. |

Nissan 300zx. Parts availability is still good, they're notoriously reliable, and mod very well. Oh, and they're cheap.

Completed the 4th annual repair marathon at the bike co-op which started for me at 11 am yesterday and wrapped up at 1pm this afternoon... best time was during the wee hours when I got to help a guy build up his new Cinelli Gazetta.
Was pretty sweet and smooth on the test ride... and I usually do not like track bikes. http://www.ravingbikefiend.com/bikep...rat%20(10).JPG |
