Today I am still sore after a weekend of Riot Fest. Worth every lower back spasm! So fun!

lucky!

same thing happened to the bass player for a punk band i was working with.
they dropped off their mixes, and then i couldn't get ahold of them for months!

finally the singer gets back to me and goes "oh, the bass player lost most of his left hand in the chain of his motor cycle"
...thinking the band was done, and they didn't care about finishing the album, the singer continued "we've got a show in a few days, good thing he just plays bass"

My brother texted me today..."GTA got shipped to my house today, and I have a stupid condo board meeting to go to".

Today I did some more carving on the dmr tomorrow, I will be getting it dirty.

Mumonkan 09-17-13 09:35 PM

today im trying to justify buying a $700 crank for a bike that cost less than $500

Dannihilator 09-17-13 09:40 PM

What crank?

SpeshulEd 09-17-13 09:55 PM

I wouldn't, go with the SA s3x hub, or surly dingle cog and run two chainrings up front if it's fixed you're going with.

i would use it with the s3x i have to make a 6 spd fixed, its an interesting concept

Was riding and had my rear bearings seize up. Skidded pretty good and blew out my tire. Fun stuff. Apparently I suck at repacking bearings and adjusting the bearing cones.

Timmy666 09-17-13 11:12 PM

Doohickie 09-17-13 11:27 PM

Please, please buy it, decide you don't like the colour and offer it to me :)

$700 eh? Allowing for the Aussie Peso and shipping here, that might still be cheaper than buying it from Greenspeed here ($900 plus shipping).

Dammit, it's a set-up that's soooo appropriate to my needs. I've been looking at having to go back to my geared bike for substantial parts of my riding and it was quite depressing. At least the price is enough to keep me honest for the time being.

Now, OT, what did I do today?
Woke up crooker than yesterday so have another day at home without pay.
Remembered that I actually do have push bikes.
Wrote lots of non-sense on this here forum ... and possibly wrote something that did make sense (hey, I'm crook, I'm allowed to make mistakes).
Oh, yesterday I started a thread that seems to have corrumpted Mumonkan :)

Kickass.
I used to be a marching band field Marshall/trumpet section leader. Every summer I think about band camp while I'm working in the real world.
