Just returned from the Surf City Cyclery sale, and picked up:

Continental Grand Prix 4000s tires, Heed, and a box of Hammer Bars :)

4 laptops at the compUSA black friday sale :D

**********?
I need to get there more often..:)

New club kit: Bib shorts, SS jersey (blue version), windshell vest (white version).

Nice to see stuff in women's XS sizes. I passed on the logo'd warmers, knickers, socks, shoe covers, gloves, caps and baselayers. Even I have my OCP limits! :rolleyes:

I don't believe you. I think your credit card just melted.

Nope, just transferred funds from my PayPal account. All those $49.95 subscription fees have added up.

:lol: ... if they were free, that explains why CompUSA is so crowded.

Got a mid/higher-end bib short from Pearl Izumi outlet today. My bro-in-law got a jacket, and a few $15 ss jerseys from them.

On a larger sale, my bro-in-law got a black Look 555 w/ultegra compact.

:beer:

my friend tyler just bought that bike.

Hey get the Paypal debit card and you no longer have to wait on those pesky transfers...:D

That's great! Dan the Look Supporter will be happy. :lol:

Got Keo pedals off of Performance. It's not as cheap as pbk; but not much after the discounts. Also got 90mm & 100mm ritchey 4-axis stems to take up space on the steerer tube, pedro's chain keeper plastic thingy and some bling bling bike grease.

What is bling bling bike grease?

Grease that is so incredibly hip that your friends will be impressed even though they can't see it and you don't tell them about it.

My new frame has arrived!:D
Has frame, fork, King headset, front derailleur.
Shock Fox rp23, fork Fox float 140mm RLC ( w/ lock blow off adjustment )
The steer tube gonna get cut a little
Now I can start the build!
The Ebay guy packed this thig really really well!
The steel bolts have a little rust, which surprises me as all my bike stay indoors, but easily replaced.
Check it out!

Now what parts.. hhmmmm...
I think I'll take a ride and think about it...
Give me some ideas!

That doesn't look like a frame. It looks like an evil robot.

Drew you lucky b$#@%**. Get Mavic Crossmax wheels and Avid hydros. Then pimp out your drivetrain with full xtr. You know you wanna. Thompson seatpost and stem. Easton bars and oury grips. WTB saddle. Am I forgetting anything? Oh, crank bros acids or Ti eggbeaters.

A white 575.......drool.....

OK, bought all the parts.
As a build kit saved some BIG money!
Purchased at "The Path" in Tustin.
Not the most organized shop, but had everything I wasnted in stock!

Wheels; custom built Hope hubs with Mavic x819 ust rims ( tubless!!)
brakes; Formula Oro Bianco disc
Shifters and RD; XTR
Crank and pedals; '08 XT
Stem & seatpost; Thompson
Bars; Easton Monkey light ( carbon)
Cassett; SRAM 990
Chain: SRAM 991 HP
Grips; oury

Hammer Gel and Heed at SCC today.

I just switched from GU to Hammer Gel for the sole reason that Hammer comes in a jug (easier to fill the flask). The espresso is a little too sweet/intense/rich... but if I cut it with vanilla, it's perfect.

that frame is SOOOO clean, you can eat off it...for now LOL

We gotta do a MTB ride after you get it built up.

Did Sycamore burn, or is it still in good shape?
Haven't ridden it yet!

+1

What's funny is the small print on the side: Refrigerate opened bottles for storage longer than two months. Ha... those bottles barely last two weeks!

Sycamore Canyon in San Diego is unburned.

I han't road syc in a while, I'm sur ehte DH is that much rockier and funner!!! Sometimes erosion is a good thing:D
