I have the one on the leftmost as well; is it a spoke card scrod?

Sorry for your troubles Charlie. I lost an aunt to lung cancer, it was really tough to watch. My mother-in-law just started chemo for breast cancer, it's tough to stay upbeat when you know how much suffering is about to commence.

enjoyed a bottle of Brother Thelonius. not a bad American dubbel.
used "gay/Takei" in a group that may have taken offense. my buddy and his husband use it freely, so i forget it's still touchy in some circles. just can't win.... got my replacement chainring bolts. chainring is now centered as well as it ever will be. will upgrade in the spring, after the salt has had it's way with my drivetrain. |
Got my Shimano R087's today. Pretty please for $35 bucks.
|
Today I put in a blustery 70 miles.
|
today i did this
http://distilleryimage7.s3.amazonaws...0a1c8929_7.jpg then roasted the crap out of all their seeds ****tin splinters for dayssss |
today i
chilled all day because im getting sick. We had a random day of rain and cold winds yesterday it was weird. researched locks all day. to anybody that commutes here and locks up daily do you recommend 2 Ulocks + cable for your wheels or U lock + heavy duty bike chain (kryptonite new york chains/onguard chains). I live in las vegas and work on the strip so we definitely have shady people. |
Depends on what release mechanism your front wheel has and how nice it is. If QR, lock it up w/ rear wheel in bigger Ulock and onto something. Another Ulock or cable lock on frame to object also. I only use a small Ulock on frame + medium thickness cable around wheels. But I don't have QR, and not flashy (cheapish) wheels, and don't leave parked for too long.

/edit: today i rode my bike to work in the coldest weather ive had so far, 33F at said work i accepted a halfassed promotion of "acting manager" for the christmas season for which i get a measly bonus of $150 |
Today I:
Today I set out in hopes of a 40 mile ride. I made it 4 or 5 miles and climbed to the top of a small canyon to head into the Valley. Once there I stopped an realized I felt too ****ty to go down and back up to get home, so turned around took the hilly way back. I don't know what happened but I feel gross now.

Broke my drive train down to give it a good cleaning. Rode through some unexpected rain two days ago, and things weren't spinning smoothly. Cleaned the chain, BB, chainring, cranks and cog, re-greased and reassembled. My back is calling for a workstand, this is BS. |
Saw 7 Psychopaths yesterday. Not too bad.

|
Today I:
Yeah, don't forget your saddle. Some are a bit tougher to get a cable through if they have a lip around the rails like a Turbo. Then there is the chain method.
|
Rode 17 miles in jeans. Derp. Now I'm gonna pig out and play Minecraft for the rest of the day.
|
Today i worked but that went by quick.
also ordered my Ulocks + cable for wheels/seat (thanks everybody for the input on my question) and won a pair of deda newton road bars on ebay for $1.81 lol. now to chill before a bar ride later. |
Today I watched a roadie eat **** really hard while attempting to track stand at a red light.
|
hahaha what a nublet
|
Today I celebrated 20 years married to the most wonderful woman alive :love::D
|
Today I had a productive day including the street ride.
|
