Glad you bought that, otherwise I was going to. Thing was calling me.

Scrodzilla 09-08-12 04:34 PM

I was a little afraid to post it. :lol:

Oddly enough, I'd found it maybe 10 minutes before you first posted it. Came up in a search for "Merckx"

Today I learned about the various models and makes of fixie helmets

Shot guns for the first time, made a rocket launcher which shot model rocket engines w/pipe + trigger mechanism, shot said rocket launcher while standing in bed of atv going 40+ mph. Best day in a while.

Today I can't decide which bike to ride. Never had this happen before. I think Pinarello mourning is really starting to sink in.

Stuffed myself on fried chicken from the Chinese place across the road. They really give you way too much food.

Never too much food.

I spent the day in Little Tokyo with my girlfriend because she has been pretty emotional lately. There was much Sapporo, takoyaki, and donburi. Unfortunately it is way too hot for soups or curry.

LesterOfPuppets 09-08-12 07:13 PM

I love curry in the heat.

Damn, got trounced on Strava. Gonna hit that route hard tomorrow.


Uh oh! You just lost your KOM on Downtown Vancouver to PDX via I205 Bridge to Tom Kay by 9 minutes 13 seconds.

Nagrom_ 09-08-12 07:32 PM

In pacific grove for a tri. Checked out a local bike shop, picked up a new pair of bib shorts on sale, couple pair of socks, and two sweet cycling caps (my first).

striknein 09-08-12 08:08 PM

Bought this today, hope to play it later...

Today I:
 
Today my sqrl got a free iTunes $50 iTunes gift card which she in turn gave to me because she doesn't have an iPhone. What paid cycling related apps should I splurge on?

Dannihilator 09-08-12 08:30 PM

Today I threw the dmr around some more. Can't ride the 930 until I get a new rear wheel, rim is cracked.

Nagrom_ 09-08-12 08:32 PM

I'd say BF app, but judging by your formatting, that has already been done.


Just picked up 4 various black/white used jerseys on eBay for 50 bucks.

Went to a craft fair, had a whiskey-bacon-vanilla gelato bar dipped in dark chocolate, came home and watched some Doctor Who, took a nap, got jealous of Scrod's new bike, and now I'm watching Top Gear. Rad.

Oh, and I found out that my new downstairs neighbor is a FGFS guy. I see rides in my future. Also, Keo spinz.

Street rider 09-09-12 12:37 AM

I'm drunk. Too much partiez. At least it was fun

ever do the food fair at Wat Thai temple? one of the highlights of my only trip to L.A..

RGNY 09-09-12 10:46 AM

got the Pake out for the morning ride. felt pretty fast after the Nature Boy.

only glitch was the unused streetcar tracks that i usually bunnyhop. poor form, landed a little hard and my right hood slipped down about 2", effectively clamping the rear brake. that was fun. luckily i was able to bludgeon it back into place with my shoe (clipless mtb)....

No, that's all the way into the Valley and I hardly ever go there. Sounds good though!!
