Swapped some parts out on my kids' 24" '95 Cannondale MTB. Working out the kinks to optimize 1x gearing on this old bike. A single 34T front ring and no derailleur instantly made the bike look 10% better.
This frame has so much potential. I will post my own pics when it's ready for primetime but here's an example (not my photo) of what I'm working with:
I'll be using the original matching rigid fork as well.

Yeah I dont drink that much and I dont really want to. Occasionally is cool, but its too many empty calories and I gain weight way too fast to regularly drink.

I'm taking the lady out to dinner tomorrow night, "The Wine Sellar." Not the funnest neighborhod (Sorrento/Mira Mesa), but the food is delicious and the restaurant is kinda neat. We're going to drink .
edit: Have a great day planned for tomorrow with some road riding, mtb riding, and chore-sy type stuff before we meet in the early evening. It should be a nice day!

I'm headed to LA today for a long weekend...Seeing Radiohead Monday night, woo!
We're staying in Koreatown, so I'm guessing piles of Korean bbq is in my future.
Any cool places/bike shops nearby that I should check out? Any that rent bikes?

Today I figured out that the reason my wireless bike computer wasn't working is that there is some weird interference with my battery powered headlight. wtf !

Of course if your head is pounding, sleeping might be the best choice.

You can also check out Bicycle Coffee in Hollywood. While you're at it, you can visit the bike co-ops Bicycle Kitchen and Bikerowave
