Today I rode to my "Local" bike shop. They moved from the neighboring village (13 miles) to a small city nearby (18 miles). I just wanted to say hi to the guys and chat.
They were having a black friday thing and they game me a gift bag which had a patch kit and these socks with the shop logo.
I also bought a bike. They had a Dahon Boardwalk (SS) at half price. Couldn't pass it up. I may try to "fix" it, but the rear spacing is 110mm. No pics of the bike as it stayed in the shop.

Thanksgiving morning my neighbour knocked down our shared mailbox. One post, two mailboxes on a patch of grass between our driveways.
He fixes his mailbox but not ours. He puts a single post back up, off center btw, takes his box off the other post he left on the ground with our mailbox.
How do I proceed?
I asked him about it and he acted like he didn't speak English.

progress on hypnotoad:
last minute choice to change to 2.15 instead of 2.35's was a good one. these are the absolute max this frame can fit. dented the chainstays a bit for some more clearance

This worked. I just put my box on his post. He wasn't using it anymore.
Seriously though, I've already talked to the guy like I said. And that got me nowhere. I'm pretty sure I'm just gonna knock his down so I can repair the original box, and I'll make sure to leave his laying on the ground. Hopefully he'll get the point.

God that frame is cool. I wonder what their thinking was putting two cage mounts on the downtube instead of the seat tube?

that HT angle is soooooo slack! esp. compared to what I'm used to riding.
Nice tire choice - that bike makes me just wanna ride over random crap for fun!

3.5hrs today mid z2. meant to do four, but was short on daylight. mtb tomorrow.
Had a killer ride on Turkey Day, 2.5hrs. Kept a steady ~200w over the first half, then released the hounds over the second half.
Getting stronger rules. If I can keep this up without getting sick or injured, I should kick ass and earn my cat2 in no time next year.
