Just kidding, bought 23" flats instead. Only cost 3.50 and I couldn't resist.

We've turned it up to 11 since moving (maybe even 12). You have no idea... :lol:

Today my Omnomnoms came in the mail. These things sure are beefy.

Today I also officially retired my Affinity. Feels weird to only have one bike. Guess I need to figure out what track frame I'm getting now.

Lemme get that Io pro

Seatpost is seized. Bottom bracket cups might be too. If you want it though, shoot me a PM.

Got in a nice MTB ride yesterday. We have a local park, Duthie Park, and it is silly fun. New rear tire sure made the slime easier. Riding is a great part of life!

Today I test rode a superX, and did 50 miles with two stops to watch the Gloucester grand prix. Want a cx bike so bad.

Did you try using penetrating fluid/ catalyst?
PB blaster is great stuff. 1st get at the cups. With those out the way, get at the seatpost from below and above. Let it soak.

Ehh, I kinda needed to make room for new stuff anyway.

Today I got my last haircut at my local Procuts, where I've been going for the last twenty or so years. They are going out of business, so I'll need to find a new place to get my hair cut. Kinda sad, but I guess that's life. :(

Go full hipster and just do it yourself, lol.

Ooh!

My bike shop has a new black sheep kit coming out shortly though, I should probably save my money for that. The black sheep stuff isn't cheap.

Only scrolled past it on Intragrams, looked good.

Today I squatted my bodyweight for the first time since summer started, and the guy next to me squatted one rep at 475.

Today I rode my fixed gear over my full commute. A combination highway and city trek with a variety of hills covering 24 km.

I bought a used fixed gear that was built at a Toronto bike shop using a 1980's Japanese 10 speed frame with a 52/18 gearing.

It was my first fixed gear ride except for some practice runs around my neighborhood. Feeling pretty good about my 52 year old bones.

wu_osiris 09-28-15 05:34 PM

Today I ordered a bicycle pump and bike shorts

rex615 09-28-15 06:52 PM

Today I am in Mexico City, will be working here all week.

Muffin Man 09-28-15 11:44 PM

I really want cross bike.

seau grateau 09-29-15 01:01 AM

Rode 25 or so around Pasadena today. Trying to put in regular miles to get back in some kind of shape.
