Morning Stosh! Monkeys!!!

Ive been looking on the internet for some tv stand, a new comp desk and a bedframe.. i think we have narropwed it down and we are gonna place an order soon. this is a major accomplishment.. my wife is very indecisive... it took 3-4 hrs last night to choose up to 5 we liked...thank god we are almost done

I also went for a nice little urban ride last night, just riding around checking out the local christmas lights. a lot of people were out since it was so mild out....
I am loving my new 6.6 ... i was launching off stuff with it that normally would make me second think my decision.. the bike is smooth

Morning Stosh!!

Went out for a Ride last night Was pretty good, still some crunchy snow , and Studded tires were a must. , Broke a Derailer hanger , but was able to finish ride as a single speed.


Hope to get out tonight , but it does not look promising , suppose to be heavy rain tongiht.

Hello. MBC and I are heading to Mt Snow to ski this weekend (Saturday thru Monday). I was thinking of taking tomorrow off so we could make it four days, but stupid work is getting in the way of that.

Went to the gym last night after a 10 day break (a combination of an injury and the holiday). They've made some improvements at the gym...new cardio and circuit machines, plus a new cardio area. Nice!

It's only getting up to 75 here today ... time to bring out the winter-ware! Not a flake of snow here in AZ. Not a cloud in the sky. What a depressing winter...

for around $150 you could get the burton custom ltd. i wouldve reccommended the regular custom but that doesnt have the cap strap for your toes that is so much more comfortable than a conventional strap. flows are nice as well if you want the comfort of strap-in bindings with the ease of step-ins.

Morning all! I'm back at work today after an exhausting 5 days off. Xmas was great, but finding room for all the new crap we have is not great. Oh well, we'll manage. Can't believe NYE is Sunday!?!? Another year down... Hope '06 is as good as '05 was, if not better! :)

Edit: Baby is due in 20 days!! :eek:

Big day here. My HID and some tires should be arriving this afternoon. :dancing:

Going to go do some trail work this afternoon. Thinking we are going to be scouting out a new bridge crossing. We did get a heads up for some more new trail.

Good morning, monkeys. Relaxing on my day off with Rob. Time to run some errands and get all the provisions for a rockin' New Years.

Reactor, are you getting rid of an old fork? I'm looking for something airsprung to go with my new lightweight Kona frame.

Morning monkeys.

It's kind of hard to make love after the balls drop.
