I wonder if there's a toolbox thread anywhere in BF.

Probably.

Today, I flaked on my homey, we were gonna go watch the marathon around Boylston before I went into work. Later, on my bike ride to work I heard a couple of cannon blasts coming from downtown Boston. When I got to work I found out about the attack. I thank my luck stars that I didn't go down there today! I pray for all those who were involved in the tragedy.

I will say that instead of running from the explosion, my fellow Bostonians and the brave first reponders all ran toward the blast site to help those in need. This leaves me with hope for all humanity!


Also if you live in the Boston area and can lend a hand please do:

Scrod- Glad you and Angie are ok.

Today I went to the track for an intermediate training session. Found out it counts towards upgrades, yay.

Also found out that 4 weeks off due to injury=laters fitness

Managed to win the Miss and Out practice race, but was too gassed after that to do anything. Maybe I'm not eating enough either.

All in all, today was the most painful 16miles I've ever ridden (lolwut)

Muffin Man 04-15-13 11:30 PM

I wish I could have gone :(
Stupid homework

Today I woke up, watched the new game of thrones episode and then have been waiting for my pay to come through so I can buy some new bike parts. Also it's t-minus three days until I go to my physio and she'll hopefully tell me to go ride my bike again. Quads man, why

Nagrom_ 04-16-13 12:33 AM

Just got home from the track session that ended at 9. **** this commute hahaha.

Still working on the Motobecane. Got the black Tektro levers today, so I replaced the clashing silvers ones. Made the final cuts on the brake cables and housing. Build is nearly complete - just need to put the SL42s and black quill pedals on. I just need Ebikestop to f**kin ship the pedals already. It's been 7 days and they still haven't shipped. Ridiculous.

95% completed with my SSCX build. Hopefully rideable by tomorrow. So excite.

Dannihilator 04-16-13 04:48 AM

Today I have no idea why I am up this early.

Yesterday I became a permanent resident of Canada. Today I have a whole bunch of paperwork to get in order/government offices to visit.

Congratulations and welcome! My wife went through that process so I have a sense of how tedious and drawn out it can be.

Today some crazy fool came into the shop asking if I was interested in trading my Leader 725 for a "bomb-ass home theater system". When I told him I wasn't, he asked if he could take it for a ride. When I said no, he got pissed.

People are hilarious.

hockeyteeth 04-16-13 12:56 PM

You should trade for the stereo. That would be hella money.

Scrodzilla 04-16-13 12:57 PM

Unfortunately, he did not.

Muffin Man 04-16-13 01:44 PM

Today I learned what a gillet is. seems cool.

Street rider 04-16-13 05:00 PM

Got in a solid 31.5 miles. A bit windy in some directions, but I'm alive. Solidifying tan lines on the legs too. Now to eat half the food in my apartment.

How about saying "that's fire" or "that's thirsty".

Dannihilator 04-16-13 05:56 PM

Today I got the dmr mended.

GMJ 04-16-13 06:07 PM

Today, I was offered a full time job over the summer building bikes. Stoked.

I hate when people over use the word rad, like in consecutive sentences.

seau grateau 04-16-13 06:08 PM

Never heard "that's thirsty" before, but I already hate it

Muffin Man 04-16-13 06:55 PM
