Today I'm down in phx. time to ride this thing on rocks

^^^OMG ! I've got the very same bike, except I've turned it into a commuter.

Nice! Love that Neon Zefal. Yeah this one was all commutered out, was Dad's old bike. Flew down with knobbies last time down. Broke a toe clip last time so flew down with one of those this time.

Today I broke the preloadbolt to my 105 crankset, oh well, glad I had a spare no I did not over tighten it.

44 miles today in the warmth. All I have to say is that damn are the roads dirty around here at the moment and I didn't touch a dirt road and it looked like this once done.

you dont wanna see my bike, lol.

im not even gonna clean it till april, just let it keep piling on

destroying my chain though, gotta lube it almost daily

Get a thicker chain lube. Every other day I reapply.

Chain L.

Exactly.

Recycle that crap and get up on some square taper.

External works better for me.

Picked this up today on ebay.
08 Rush Hour w/ Sugino Cranks.
250 + shipping. Good deal?

Today I start my vacation and can actually get some riding in. Been so damn busy the last couple of weeks...sucks.

Wanna get out on the trails one day? I did a little teaser ride around North Mountain yesterday, would like to do a longer day on trail 100 or other trail sometime between Thursday - Monday.

It was a killer day for riding yesterday. I really gotta figure out a way to go full snowbird all winter, every winter.

When I first moved to the southwest, I thought snowbirds were a soft bunch of sissies. Now I've come to realize that I was wrong, and they were doing it right all along.

I leave Thursday to go to Michigan (brr!) for the weekend. I could do something tomorrow or Wednesday, but I haven't ridden in a while so I'm not very in shape at the moment. I only averaged 16.7mph today on my 30 mile road ride. I've gone soft. It's a great week for riding though, can't be weather in the 70's!

Drove into work for the first time In four years. Driving sucks but at least I got my car legal enough to drive now.

just went through this same thing, and soon as i did i cant shake the feeling of wanting to get rid of it, lol

cars are great...for sitting in traffic.

Today I put in 42 soggy miles.

Everyone at work asked me if im going to start driving in now, they still don't get how someone can ride a bike for fun.

Gonna be so nice when I get to go bike crater lake this summer.

I don't mind driving, but I also hate it at times, especially to and from work. Commuting helps relieve work stress, driving usually causes rage, at least for me.

Today I started working on a short single track on my parents' property. So far it's really fun to ride on and I don't know why I didn't do this sooner .

Got tired of staring at the blank space of where my tv was. Getting closer to a storage "solution", I guess.

Nice. Do you have any pictures?

Wanted to buy a Gran Compe shot lever for my bike but found out there was a big design fault there.
Why would the cable go that way omg!
