Glad he got some help. Could have been bad (worse) otherwise.




Today I: man... why do GP4Ks have such ***** ass sidewalls.

striknein 04-22-13 01:08 PM

I got rid of my GP4kS tire. I'd much rather ride Paselas.

today I start tearing into a cannondale MTB from yesterday's swap meet for my boss. Gotta kiss that ass if I'm gonna get promoted!

Nagrom_ 04-22-13 01:14 PM

But they ride so good.
But get chopped up.


Didn't get any threads though. Pulled the tire, put a patch on the inside of it, and filled the gash with cement. Hopefully I won't die on the track.

I realized why I have been having so much knee pain. At work I have been hauling 5 boxed bikes at a time around the block from our storage room with a dolly that is a tad too small for me. Talk about fit related injuries! So much disappoint.

Nagrom_ 04-22-13 01:17 PM

Did you use the fit calculator? Dolly fit is important.

FakeFuji 04-22-13 01:28 PM

Tie a rope to the handle or something

Nagrom_ 04-22-13 02:10 PM

Bakfiets or gtfo.

Will not be riding track in jeans.

johnnytheboy 04-22-13 02:32 PM

Today I got my new wheelset installed on the carve. Lost about 400g.
Also, installed the new endless kickass cog.

striknein 04-22-13 03:00 PM

Pics or gtfo.

iTripped 04-22-13 03:08 PM

Today I'm glad to be back in the office, as I got a new bed on the weekend which turned into more work than my lazy ass is comfortable with. Next time I think I will bribe friends with beer rather than do it alone.

Today I: sorta-but-not-really regret racing sea otter. Ribs hurt, man. Week of rest, coming up.

Today I started day 1 of a long break from road rides and had a very productive street ride. Just absolutely clicking on the dmr now.

seau grateau 04-22-13 09:36 PM

Today I saw what I missed at CicLAvia: the most terrifying tall bike ever built.

I guess he couldn't find 15ft brake cables. And yes, lolpants.

Mumonkan 04-22-13 09:48 PM

really coasterbrake makes the most sense, just saying the words 15 foot tall coastie makes me lol

Jaytron 04-22-13 11:25 PM

Today I went to the track with MuffinMan and Nagrom.

I won my (practice session) scratch race, and MuffinMan won his. Woo hoo

Muffin Man 04-22-13 11:46 PM

Winning the C group race is like winning the special olympics

Having "more power than I know what to do with" but "reckless and unpredictable" is worse I think.

seau grateau 04-22-13 11:48 PM

Better than losing the Special Olympics

Truth.

hamfoh 04-22-13 11:56 PM

Today I got back from Austin, completed the MS150 SS again (fixed both days this time, 47x15), but this time with my own team I formed just in the last few months. Honestly one of the most enjoyable experiences I can remember, just good times from day 1

Also won best team jersey while we were there, http://www.houstonpress.com/slidesho...0-39398721/22/
Hoping to win most spirited team too, as we were definitely the loudest mfers there

Nagrom_ 04-23-13 12:35 AM

Long ****ing day.
