I'd love to own one of these old Omega Dynamic watches some day

I'll deliver come tomorrow; it's a shame my collection is in 2 parts though here in SD and in the bay area.

Tonight I was out riding with the guys for the first time since I don't know when. Was fun, happy I made it out. I need to stop being such a shut in.

Put derailleurs on the Fuji, sold my Retrospec. I guess I won't be hanging around FG/SS much until I complete my Leader and Switch.

Goodbye FGSS....goodbye...goodbye..........bye.......bye......*echoes into the distance*

Finally feeling recovered and rested after drinking a gallon of PBR during my first alleycat race.

Ouch, was the drinking on the manifest?

Somewhat.
The guy who put this on organized a more relaxed setup that was closer to a scavenger hunt.
Each location had a sheet with points that you tore off, so getting there early netted you more points. Beer receipts from bars were worth bonus points, fixies, costumes etc also got you more points. And we had a physical challenge of eating boiled eggs over a 5 minute period, which added points to your score. Most of the guys in our group drank 4 beers or so during the race.
I ended up taking 1[SUP]st[/SUP] out of 20 or so guys and celebrated accordingly afterward.

I'm doing a 90% build of my new thunderdome today. Frame just came in.

That's what I am right now :(

Sherblock 10-07-14 01:37 PM

Frowns all around :(

Leukybear 10-07-14 01:41 PM

I'll add one: I've been cheating on my paddywagon on my commutes with a CAAD10 :(

Today I'm messin' around in SF.

Carcosa 10-07-14 03:19 PM

Since we are on the subject of watches.

Today I wore the recent birthday gift from my lady.

And I managed to time my commute to miss the rain two days in a row. F*** yes.

Continuing the wristwatch derailment.

I can go about wearing a different watch everyday for a couple days. Scary thing is when this isn't even half, I have more back in the bay area.
All these watches are daily wearers. I have some collectible ones that I don't have the guts to take the tags off of although I'm slowly coming to terms of selling off some of those.

At the point I was putting them back away, I realized I forgot to include the watch I was wearing and the more colorful ones that my sqrl had "borrowed" (hence the vast majority being dark colored). :lol:

how much for the ghettoblaster.

Shotland 10-08-14 10:01 AM

I'm going to buy a thomson masterpiece, a track ring, and a collar.

Owlex 10-08-14 02:20 PM

I've been bartending at my current restaurant for a little over 6 months (since the restaurant first opened it's doors) and today we were awarded best new restaurant in the Kansas City area.

I thought that was pretty neat, I dunno.

Nagrom_ 10-08-14 04:07 PM

Does the Kansas City area include Jersey, or is that just the Kansas City Metro area?

I have a bunch of those too. Those were just the ones I picked up here. :)
Haven't cared too much about how much they're worth. More interested in fixing them and appreciating the nostalgia, the one at the bottom is one of my current projects pending spare parts.

I used to think Leuky was bragging when he would tell us about his collection of Campagnolo friction shifters but now I'm kind thinking he could end up on an episode of Hoarders.

thedapperest 10-08-14 06:50 PM

Today I rode for the first time since I will that's it. Today, I also rode brakeless. It was actually pretty much fine, although there was one time when I almost fell in the street, and there were a few times where I instinctively reached for my brake handle before realizing it wasn't there anymore

Hey Leukybear,

I wanna send you a PM but have too few posts. How do I get in touch with you (have some questions regarding G-Shocks).

Haha all you need is just 5 more posts!
Or alternatively ask here and add to that post count while you're at it ;)
