Today(yesterday) I decided to clean my chain, and I some how managed to actually break the link. Now my chains too short, and literally just the other day I threw out my extra links thinking I wouldn't need them any longer. LUCKILY I found a 42 tooth chain ring in my bin which just barely works with the chain, so I installed that in the event I can't find an open shop today. Now I'm running 42x18 instead of 48x18, but I'll be damned if anything gets in the way of me having a chance to bike 3 days in a row. Oh yeah, merry whatever it is you celebrate.

My phone doesn't want me to do reply quotes, so you get it in long-form.
TT, good to see that you're still around.
Leuky, I give. Who is it?

Today I found out that I broke the rear axle on my commuter bike. Oh so that was what all that crunchy feeling in the pedals was.
GOD I LOVE BEING SUCH A HEAVY MOTHER****ER! I guess I have to give up using my 6 speed freewheel.

Bought This.
and with the help of JPZ66 from the C&V section we cleaned it up, repacked the front and rear hubs and shined up a few things. its rideable but id like a set of wider bars and a bit longer stem. im going to replace all the brake cable housing and maybe cables. needs things like bar tape and a set of SPD pedals.

Today I made my kids happy, had a great afternoon with my family, ate too much and am now settling down to read my new book " Racing bicycles: 100 years of steel" before eating even more and, because I'm now at home and don't have to drive, drinking too much 
Have a good one peeps, tomorrow we get to ride all the excess off.

Today I:
Today I had Christmas with my dad, and I now own a catlike whisper deluxe plus. He also got me the Ireland jersey from PBK, and the matching socks. Damn good morning. And now I have to take off to school for our bowl game rehearsal. Going to be a long afternoon/night

I'm so glad we're open even though there are no people outside and I'm eating a 1.5 pound block of corn bread with week old reheated party container coffee
