90 sites? That's a lot of porn!

making the switch from the chrome ranchero i've been carrying for the last several years.

was so happy to ride today. weather has been making commuting sporadic. didn't even mind the 1/2" of sand on the shoulder. glad i left the studs on. one section was sand over ice...... ugh. won't even know what to do when i put fast rolling tires back on.

Lol some kid got arrested today at school because he wore a full set of BDU's, combat boots, and a gas mask.

the weather is nice out here today to and looks like all weekend. I just moved here so idk how the weather will be through out the year but right now I really like it after a few weeks of cold and some rain.

I have a mission workshop rambler I use for everyday commuting and it is the best bag I have ever owned. One of the best purchases I made last year. I got to go to there shop while I was in SF to pick my bag up and there all really cool people there all of them were super nice.

i went for the fitzroy model.....
i didn't really like the option to expand.....

Today I got goodies from wifey; NBA 2K13, oakleys, fossil

Today I only set out to do about 30mi ended up doing 64. Now the lady and I are going to gorge on sushi.

Well played sir.

drunk at 3pm :)

:beer:

Love is in the air. He didn't want to breathe any in.

Your parents must be so proud.

so now were getting in trouble for being well-coordinated, sweet.

I needed a bag that could expand. Comes in handy for my weekly grocery store visits. i have stuffed a whole weeks worth of groceries in just that bag. your gonna like it though! all there bags are really well made.

Today I decided that we're going to make **** BROTURES stickers.

luckily, i've got this for weekly grocery runs!:thumb:

Today I had a good commute, the issue has been resolved.

Those guys need a serious lesson in bike fitting 101.

Every single bike they've built had either/or both saddle and bars tilted at ridiculous angles. Every single one.

it saddens me more that leader is proud enough to post pictures of those bikes everywhere simply because its free advertising

That's what I don't get. Leader's products (most of them, anyway) have come a long way in the past few years and every single build we see is some ****ty, unrideable hunk of crap from Japan. I think they only build bikes to take pictures of them, and barely finish them when they do. Like this shining example:

Brakes but no cables or levers, an Aerospoke in the rear and barely any stem at all - but it has a full carbon fork. No wonder a lot of people here in the US still don't take Leader seriously.

It's madness.

the hells going on with that front rim? looks like someone hit it with a balpeen hammer.

That's probably how they tightened down the nuts on the front wheel and missed a few times.

Today I woke up at 1 30 in the arvo after a big Thursday night out. First thing I see when I walked out my bedroom door was my clips, straps and some goodies from scrod. Then my little sister told me there was a pretty big bushfire last night about a 5 minute drive from my house. That sucks but at least I'll be able to put the finishing touches on my bike and take it for it's first spin! Also there's a big month long festival called 'The Fringe' kicking off tonight with a massive street parade, I'm worried that tonight will be as big as last night.

That Barq's had to be toast if you rode on anything but basketball court for more than 1/4 mile :)

Not all Leader Builds are terrible:

Anyway, today I: registered for my first race, this Sunday, a 25 minute crit (Cat 5, obvs). Extremely excited and extremely nervous. I'll be riding it on a borrowed Trek 1.2, so it'll be my first time on a geared bike in basically ever. Will I be judged if I show up with clips and straps? I don't think the morning of a crit will be a good time to learn clipless pedals.

Also, I've recently been looking for a new shoe to wear when I ride, and I had a thought. Is there any reason I can't wear a clipless cycling shoe without the cleat and use that in my clips straps? I have a multitude of reasons for not wanting to put clipless pedals on the fixed gear, but would like a cycling specific shoe to wear for longer rides. The sperry's just aren't cutting it any longer.

Police didn't buy that reason.

Yeah he got arrested for "causing a disturbance on school grounds." He's 18, so he's ****ed. I personally don't like the guy, so I don't care what happens to him, but its one of the biggest things that has happened in our school in a couple months.

For some reason I doubt anything real bad would happen to him.

Well its probably gonna go on his permanent record, and he's been admitted to some pretty high up music schools, so that might not go over too well for him. And pretty much the only thing he can do is play cello.
