Today I woke up to snow falling. Damnit. I won't ride my fixed gear in this weather, so time to start converting the frankenbike back into something more all weather. Seriously considering ripping apart everything I have done so far and just going back to a flat bar and they hydraulic brakes.

The toilet bowl thing was cool.

"Seat vs Saddle" is worthy of physical violence as a form of conflict resolution.

Today I put my 54th hash mark on my dry erase board/calendar.

54 days without walking. Left leg is atrophied to a skinny ass Jello noodle.

I told myself to be patient, but this is really getting old.

Next Doc appointment is December 23rd.

Today I rode brakeless for about an hour and my mileage was zero.

Mirepoix (carrots, celery and onions), herbs de Provence, garlic, lemon pepper, extra virgin olive oil, whiskey (cause I had some handy for deglazing), and a few other secrets : )

Word happy to share though probably pictures unless you are in the area ; )

today i finished this...switched to black housing, and wrapped the grips/chainstay in blue newbaums. she loves it!!!

That does sound good.

My son makes one where he braises onions, celery, bell peppers and garlic in olive oil, until the onions caramelize and then makes the broth with it. I think he adds a bit of Marmite, Miso and Pimenton de la Vera (smoked paprika) for extra flavor. Perhaps I just revealed his secret ingredients

Guns or knives?

Whatever it takes. Educating the ignorant is job 1. :p

Rollers?

Today I rode brakeless freewheel for about two miles. Some grass, some paved. Managed to not hit any trees, fenceposts, etc.

No. Homemade stationary trainer.

I used some miso as well, I have deeply fallen in love with it recently (after having some 20 year old miso that was still good). I also tend to use smoked paprika a lot in many things but I didn't here for whatever reason. Maybe I am slipping? I guess my brain needs to be properly torqued

Homemade deserves a pic.

Also, I just popped your "Mentioned" cherry @TejanoTrackie

Edit: Why u no pop?

TT must have special powers, some even say he is "Unmentionable"

Yesterday I wandered into an LBS, requisite chat, mentioned that I was thinking of custom Ti frame and the owner pulls a 56cm Moots w/full Dura Ace off the shelf.

Didn't sleep much last night...

Dope bike is hella dope.

Installed my Phil BB yesterday and slapped this neat sticker on my frame.

Today I'm figuring out what rim I want re-lace the hubs from my old wheelset into. Budget/beater set with ~23mm width.

I have a bike with a wheelset that has one single philwood spoke, that counts right? :lol:

Well, did you buy it????

it looks awesome!

Today I built my next Single speed road bike from a 1987 steel Orbea frame. http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=489739

Nice, I didn't realize Orbea had been around that long, I associate them with high en carbon bikes. Obviously the are popular in Spain.

Yes, I suppose.

Confession: I have the collector's gene. I'm currently using Phil hubs and BB and I've practically already convinced myself I need their headset that's supposed come out in 2016 and their seat collar. It's a sickness. At least I got to feel validated for buying the bottom bracket when I pulled the Sugino BB out I installed last January (3,000 miles) and found it had a rough spot in it. :lol:

Last cross race of the season today for me, think I placed top 5ish, wanted to race Bs also but it was back to back so I didn't have time to recover.

Found this cool video of last week's mud bath. Won't embed cause it's slightly NSFW.
