If it makes you feel better I think your leader is a beautiful build

Today I fell in love with this piece of furniture. Could use a caster upgrade, tho http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8190/8...cfac0efb_b.jpg

Today i went to an open house at FIT, got a very good response on my work and already made contacts with 4 professors
talked to one awesome dread prof about how he designed his entire dream house in costa rica and just finished building it for about an hour

On my ride there and back i saw numerous roadies kitted out riding track drops
one other kitted roadie with ginormous downhill bars that had to be like 4 feet wide
I also saw my first thruster in person, man they do suck.

They were probably crit bars. They have a very similar shape as track drops.

That's pretty cool.

Yep. Could've been twins.

Today the weather was amazing so Angie and I rode over to downtown Salem - which is crazy with tourists from all over the world this time of year because of Halloween season - where a group of young Asian kids wearing Cadence, Prolly and Heavy Pedal shirts and carrying Chrome bags started following us around. One of them finally asked if I was "Scrojira" because he recognized my bike from PedalRoom. They barely spoke English but we managed to talk for a minute and he unzipped his hoodie to show me he wearing one of the Leader shirts I designed. So cool. I gave them all a bunch of stickers and showed them a place to get a good burrito. They were stoked.

Then we ran into Damien Echols (from the West Memphis Three, who lives here now) and chatted for a bit over coffee.

Nagrom_ 10-20-12 05:24 PM

You carry stickers around?

Scrodzilla 10-20-12 05:34 PM

I always have a bunch of them in one of the pockets of my bag.

johnnytheboy 10-20-12 05:39 PM

2. asians

Scrodzilla 10-20-12 05:40 PM

It was a great day!

That's a good idea.

Which shirt was he wearing?

RGNY 10-20-12 06:00 PM

no bike today, but i came in 2nd in my fencing tournament (the big one for the year), with about 20 years on the winner.

one of the girls i hang with says her older brother might give my his '80s custom Rob Stowe road bike, as he can't ride anymore and would like to see it used. here's hoping. i'd even give him money, but it doesn't sound like i'd have to.

made carbonara for the wife and i. need to get some more guanciale, this pancetta just isn't doing it..... . now we're settling in to watch a cheesy werewolf movie she found on Netflix.

Today I found a large-ish praying mantis hanging out on my bike parts.

I worked some co-op outreach and got some nice free coffee. Now I'm cannibalizing my Panasonic (longer cranks) and SR (chain, shifter, cable guides) for parts to make the Fuji a 1x6. Sorry, doh, I just dont like riding single speed, it's either fixed gear or geared with me. I will find use for this SS freewheel in the future. I'm just ticked off because I had to buy a proprietary tool to remove my ACS freewheel. Is it so difficult to use one of the other common notch patterns???? this is what I get for not researching a freewheel.
