Today or rather the other day, I accidentally left a big container of bag balm in my chrome bag in my car on a super hot day for 8 hours. LUCKILY it so happened to be in the water proof pocket so the bag isn't totally ruined.

bet that tarpaulin liner is supple as **** now tho.

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeww

Today I accidentally bought my first set of single-walled rims.
They appeared double walled in the profile-wise product pic!

So cheap they essentially went straight from the box to truing stand.

Also, the grove is so deep because of the faux- double wall profile that I ended up using a roll of velox and a rim strip for each.

I'd post this in the music thread but no one really touches that.

Was anyone else disappointed behind the Jamie xx album that just came out, In Colour? Cause I totally was. Produced wonderfully and sonically beautiful, but it feels really empty for some reason.

I thought it was a pretty tight album, the second half especially.

Today I watched Despicable Me 1 and 2 with my wife. We laughed like we were in third grade.

Is the minions movie next on the list for date night?

You know it is. These two movies were merely "research" in preparation.

today i tried some zone training.

going slow is hard.

It won't be so hard in 20+ years.....

But, I am faster than the couch surfers.

today i decided to spend the rest of the day inside since its 100º and i was sweating bullets bringing in a single bag of vegetables from my car

intended to watch kill bill 1&2 for the first time to see what all the hubbub was about

couldnt get through the first hour, nothanks.

Don't you want to know who Bill is?

a little grasshopper?

i want to know who told so many people that movie was good. and flog him.

It was me. Please have mercy.

You just like it when he flogs you......

That Specialized Power saddle is the best thing I've ever put my butt on.

must... resist... slowpitch...

I double dog dare you to give it your best three responses!!!

and, he did say on right???

Come at me, bro

It's no wonder why I got them for so cheap



I need 2 of these and 2 for the front.

Agreed. Watched the first one and was in disbelief. Absolutely terrible.

Went on an awesome ride Saturday night... the full, semi-famous "49 mile scenic drive" which visits a bunch of cool landmarks and views all around SF. Weather was so perfect and a great group of people, super fun. Was stupid enough to do it fixed, just barely made it up the several 20%+ grades, feeling it today.

yep and you have to concentrate staying in the zone the best you can with elevation changes. I just started doing these some Saturdays instead of a much faster/harder group ride. I am surprised how tired I am after a long aerobic threshold ride-did 60 miles Saturday and I won't fully recover until tomorrow.
