Wrapped up a photo shoot today with a friend of mine for Chevy, needless to say -- I'm ****ing beat but I'm stoked everything came out looking great :thumb:

Did a little night ride with some sprints peppered throughout. Think I've got the fit on the Dolan pretty well dialed in.

I like it. Although I've only really used it for ESPN. Its $20 a month and you can use it on many devices. Its $15 extra for HBO.

i checked this out last night....
for ~$16 total a month i get netflix and hulu.
i didn't see anything on sling that would justify me adding it or switching.

Today I am considering the Cinelli Pepper bar for my TK2. I can purchase it from Tree Fort Bikes - Online Bicycle Parts and Accessories, Bicycle Tools and Maintenance and have it overnighted to me for the same price that MashSF is selling it for. WTF?

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 is wonderful.

Should have gotten it from RG during the Sabbath sale, could have saved 20%.

TreeFort is in state, prefer to support near local bike shops if possible.

nice riding @Mumonkan. that deserves the overused "epic" moniker.

I'm looking at Supersix Evo, and goddamn they're expensive in 50cm.

Not a bad bike though. I dig mine.

Yeah that's what I've heard. I liked my caad10 even though it was too big for me, so I can only imagine what a properly fitted SS evo would be like.

I like the Dean, but there's too many things I want to change about it that I think it would be better to just get a new frameset and go with carbon.

SpeshulEd 12-02-15 02:55 PM

I've been eyeballing new Giant's as of late, but I've told myself no new bikes until the end of next summer.

Why on earth did you do that???

Save that lie for the wife, knowing she does not believe you, either....:)

That's just new new bikes, new old bikes are still in the picture.

The semantics are the key.... Or, was that some antics...

I just decided that I'm gonna try to go a few years without a new bike. Unless god forbid something tragic happens to one of mine now.

TMonk 12-03-15 10:23 PM

I want to replace my caad9 with a nice carbon frame, like a tarmac, or TCR or something. Time frame is second half of next year, as I already have other plans for my tax return.

Muffin Man 12-03-15 10:43 PM

I'm working on getting a carbon frame right now actually. Metal just isn't for me I guess.

Mumonkan 12-04-15 12:26 AM

i considered a new super agressive road bike, narrowed it down to emonda, tcr, and chicarb

tcr seems to be a great bike that owners really love

Muffin Man 12-04-15 12:55 AM

Supersix evo for me. Cannondale is gr8
