Turns out he's from Medellin, Colombia (not all latinos are Mexican), and his dad used to race road bikes there. I showed him some old photos of me racing wearing a hairnet helmet, and he said I looked just like his dad. He had to get going to make other deliveries, so we exchanged phone numbers so we can keep in touch. If he shows any genuine interest in riding fg, I'll give him my Vilano, which is too big for me, but will fit him perfectly.
Also got word of a guy at my work selling his old Atala road bike that I probably will want to pick up and rebuild. STOKED But today I gave my legs a rest. Didn't ride and drove this thing for the first time in a few weeks. http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o...ps4hxkzytd.jpg |
I'm going to start saving for a eccentric rear hub.

Today I got in 42 miles and saw Fury.
Needless to say, I liked Dracula Untold more. |

You still have a 13b in there or something easier to maintain?

Doesn't take a rocket surgeon to maintain a rotary.
I've had a blown up 13b sitting on an engine stand for the past 2 1/2 years that I've been poking around in my spare time and hunting down cheap parts for from as far as japan and australia as they come up on fleabay and forums. Definitely one of my back burner projects considering I kept it around on the whim after pulling it out of a FD headed to the junkyard which I swapped an orphaned project 2jz into I picked up cheap. Not to mention, I still have the beaten exterior to work on before that. |
Today I got a raise at work. Was gonna celebrate by ordering biek stuff but my thriftomania won't let me buy anything until black friday.

Technical ability aside, parts are definitely pricier and maintenance is/ should be on the higher end of the list nowadays considering the age of these and potentially previous owner(s) neglecting it (let's face it, the majority of rx7 owners are not the original owners and finding one with the original owner selling is pretty difficult).

Today a globule of molten steel burned a hole in my glove. Thanks but no thanks.

today I passed the 1000 mile mark for the year. feels good but ready to double it next year.
|
Monday I did some light weights/plyometrics, Tues I put in 10 miles, and today my glute isn't sore/in pain. Injury has been nagging for the past 2+ months is finally clearing up.

Good stuff man. Take it slow. |
Today I came home after being stuck in the hospital for six days to have my gallbladder removed. Glad that's been taken care of, sucks I'll have to stay off the bike for a month or little bit longer.

My Rotary experience lasted five laps then I put an S2000 motor in, now it sits while I nerd out on bicycles. |
SF was on fire last night -- biking around was very interesting but so rad..! Go Giants!

I wore a Giants baseball cap at the bar, and I never wear baseball caps. Apparently it worked
