Congrats on reaching average life expectancy. It's the bonus round from here on out.

frame?
I need to do myself a favor and build up a SS/FG for the road that I actually like riding. I have my cdale capo but I just don't like it.

Thanks, man. I've already outlived my mother by 16 years and my father by 19 years, and I think my cycling has a lot to do with it. I'm less concerned about longevity, and more about quality of life.

Yeah, for sure. Still need Scrod to confirm availability in my size. I plan a build similar to those photos on the Wraith website, all murdered out black with Heavy Pedal Tempo deep V carbon wheels and a Sugino SG75 DD crankset. It will be a long distance performance road bike.

Good to see you treat yourself for such a big milestone.

Took a day off work to do some chores and put in a big one: 85 mi, 3.5k elevation, with a 4:45 rolling time which was good for 17.8 mph.
Up next: cleaning my kitchen, than the bathroom. I might try to squeeze a haircut in as well.

Been awhile, anything exciting happen?
I bought another bike and have been spending the vast majority of my time doing home renovations. Fun...err, not.

Today on my way home, a dummy in a Porsche Boxster cut in front of me in order to speed through an intersection before the light turned red but got stuck because of people turning. When I rode up next to him, I smiled and said, "Nice Miata!"

That is brilliant. You should use this in a comedy act. Maybe make a movie: Dave Scrod Does Comedy! You could be making some of that sweet sweet comedian money : P
