steel wheels from tirerack.com as 2nd set of (winter) rims for all our cars
18" steelies seem to be hard to come by, or at least seems to be. I will check tirerack, but I thought I had.

The new laptop seems legit, I like the keyboard and it seems plenty quick enough with the additional memory. That's much better throughput than I get on my work box.

anyone ever pulled / torn a calf muscle? there was some soreness after riding DH last weekend, but no specific injury / incident. the soreness / tightness in my calf muscle didn't go away, and saturday evening I noticed some swelling from my calf to my ankle. swelling hasn't gone down even with advil and ice. if it doesn't start to improve in another day or 2 i will schedule an appt with my PCP

Could be vein thrombosis. Is the pain getting worst?

That's the thing, little to no pain. A little tenderness where it's swollen. Some range of motion limitations in my ankle. No problems putting my full weight on that leg/foot either. No visible bruising. Other than the swelling the muscle mostly just feels tight. The only thing that really concerns me is the swelling.
