As someone who has a child, build your random rig, and ride that ****er across the country. At some point In your life you will not be able to.

Ugh my fuji is seriously falling apart. the creaking/clanking noise drives me nuts but i dont have the money to take it in to get diagnosed or fixed. it's either the hub on my front wheel (my initial suspicion, and it went away when a friend regreased/repacked the bearings but after the next rain ride it got clanky again) or my headset/fork or something wrong with my BB that's resonating up through the frame making it feel like it's coming from the front end.

Today I am treating myself and Angie to a fancy dinner in celebration of signing the lease for Retrogression's new location in San Diego.

hairnet 08-22-13 05:13 PM

Congrats. I'll see you in a few years when I get the hell out of NYC and move there. Enjoy the weather you lucky bastard.

Just some fat-trimming going on across the board. 3 others got chopped the same day.
Oh well, new beginnings and all that. In related news, if you're looking for a replacement bike, wanna buy the Trek? (51cmST/54.5cmTT)

Started classes today. Chem professor is an overly charismatic buffoon apparently trying to run a psychology/philosophy class. I think we will butt heads a bit this semester...

Also, I forgot the exit ramp gets backed up onto I-75 so badly at the beginning of the semester. The road was still wet from last night's rain and I crested a hill only to see two lanes of gridlocked traffic. Didn't want to lock up the rear wheel on the moto so I had to split the lane. I nearly crapped myself. Talked to a classmate later who said he had the same problem and almost wrecked when he locked up his motorcycle's rear wheel. Time to rebuild the Long Haul Trucker so I can bike to school again.
