weird place for a break?

Scrodzilla 08-23-12 05:34 PM

Very weird.

striknein 08-23-12 05:45 PM

You find that happening with touring loads on DB spokes from time to time.

Scrodzilla 08-23-12 05:47 PM

Wilson's a pretty massive dude so that probably explains it.

FWIW, that's a straight-gauge spoke.

Former site of a computer magnet or something?

:lol:

But really, I think it was because I stopped at everyone of those spots that said "Hotel guests only". Karma, man.

Nope.

Today I had fun at the pumptrack, but was wishing it was Friday.

RGNY 08-23-12 07:38 PM

played w/ cogs and chain on the Ridley and figured out that 44:18 works with no tensioner and no half link required. whee!

IthaDan 08-23-12 08:20 PM

New stem and post on the mountain cycle, finally aligned my ts-2 so my wheels are properly dished, new freewheel on the nishiki, bought lights and panniers, went to class. I think that's it.

Nagrom_ 08-23-12 08:22 PM

Got by Ergonova's today.

Impressed.

Nagrom_ 08-23-12 08:41 PM

So...
The only things I'm waiting on now for the build are water bottle cages (delivery time of 9/5), valve extenders (delivery time of 8/27), SRAM Force groupset (delivery time of 8/28), wheelset (delivery time of 9/11), and the frame(delivery time of 10/19 <__<).

I'm anxious.


At least I'll be getting my scrod package tomorrow, and will have some wheels to build to entertain me.

yummygooey 08-23-12 08:44 PM

yesterday/today i drove 23 hours straight from yellowstone to cedar falls, ia. LOL i'm tired -__-

ThermionicScott 08-23-12 08:53 PM

Today I got a sweet new handlebar in the mail for my FG, and then found out that my stem is (and all my other quill stems are) a 25.4mm clamp, not a 26. Guess the hunt is on for the right MTB quill stem...

Leukybear 08-23-12 09:02 PM

Today I've finally obtained the fruity bar tape. :D

Today I *finally* saw The Dark Night Rises.

I'm in love with JGL and I haven't even seen Premium Rush yet! (Yet -- probably will go see it Saturday with a friend.)

SS_Giant 08-23-12 09:43 PM

today I successfully, after about 2 hrs, got a new pair of bullhorns through my quil and got them taped. finding bar ends is going to be a challenge though, the set that came with the tape are too big...

And JGL shut down TDKR

yummygooey 08-23-12 09:43 PM

cc700 08-23-12 09:57 PM

I'm concerned about the 1 liners. How are they? Comedic gold I hope?

Flip side is at least they'll be wearing their helmets. :)

Street rider 08-23-12 10:07 PM

I want to go see it really soon. Just to say that I went and saw it. Maybe next weekend when I don't have **** going on all day long.

LesterOfPuppets 08-23-12 10:22 PM

Today I found my earbud rubber that had gone AWOL a couple days ago. Fully stoked.

Rode a Royce Union with a 52/39 all day.

Was thinking about evening 10 mile TT but was too tired after work so ate fried chix instead.
