Never walk again? Holy sheet! I do know of two people that were given that prognosis and one can walk perfectly fine and the other walks with a limp. Here's hoping your friend lucks out like they did.

Today I am off to watch stage 6 of the pro cycling challenge. This is madness here in boulder.

RGNY 08-25-12 11:16 AM

recovery day. out early for bagels fresh from the kettle/oven with the wife, groceries, put down some Hungarian goulash for it's day in the crockpot.

now time to grab a beer and head out to the garage to work on setting up the Nature Boy.

(last night finally saw "Tucker and Dale vs Evil". so awesome. not a parody or homage like i'd anticipated. brilliant.)

So jealous. I can't even watch it today. My work schedule is gonna make me miss the live airing and the recap.

today i rode hard enough to make me sick to my stomach for about 90min after the ride was over

i couldnt even eat my breakfast burrito it was that bad

Today I went to Portland.
Might have drooled a little bit on a Felt F4130. Never done that over a Felt before.
Realized I need to start approaching Western Bike Works from the North instead of the East.
Dropped chain off small chainring.
Was rudely reminded of how tricky it is to remove second foot from toeclip when chain is dropped.
Now I await chicken time.
Oh, and took bad fone pic.

Today I recovered my turbo with a piece of pale grey chamoise leather, hopefully it gets rid of some of the ass stank

For some reason that reminds me of wizzing in this urinal.

My saddle probably smelled worse than that. Suede holds that booty sweat, if the leather wasn't free I probably would've goodwilled a black leather jacket, but I guess I'll do that next time

LesterOfPuppets 08-25-12 07:53 PM

I'm glad you used the word "probably" there.

Dannihilator 08-25-12 07:54 PM

Today I threw the dmr around and then mowed grass, then threw the dmr around some more.

Today I went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium with the sqrl for her birthday.

Got home and oven cleaner'd the black formation face, got off most of the anodizing, the rest should sand off really easily.

Leukybear 08-25-12 09:04 PM

Today I woke up at 4am for a early morning century to Vista and back, made some money and then rode some more with the lady to dinner. While doing so I proceeded to take a stab at ibiting without giving any advance warning to my wife and she totally had a wtf moment and proceeded to make fun of me.

Out of some 10+ attempts and multiple shots of just the front wheel, here's the best 2:

This one to be exact:

Oh, also decided that I like the selle italia flite saddle more than the fizik Antares.

jdgesus 08-25-12 10:34 PM

sell me your antares!

Dannihilator 08-25-12 10:54 PM

I'd work a trade

yummygooey 08-26-12 07:20 AM

flite is sooooooo bad. i would trade in a heartbeat if i still had mine.

Jaytron 08-26-12 07:50 AM

Today I'm headed up to Sonoma to watch some Indy car racing. Aw si.

Later tonight I'm not staying at the sqrl's house and going home to play GW2 all night.

LesterOfPuppets 08-26-12 10:11 AM

Today I mourn cuz Pinarello got stolen from Fred Meyer's bike rack last night. If you see this bike shoot first, ask questions later. Had brown Charge Spoon on it, not the SDG pictured.

Noooooooooo! that sucks so bad man, i'm sorry.

Today I am slightly hungover, went out for karaoke for the first time in almost two weeks, got home at 4am. Was fun, people kept buying my drinks so it literally only cost me $3 (plus tip) for one PBR. Wasn't gonna sing but the DJ put my name in and picked a song for me (Anarchy in the UK) and I think I scared people. I scream a lot when I do that song. Went home, cried myself to sleep (LOL emo) and now need to get something to eat.
