Man.... it doesn't even feel like an F'ing Tuesday since the pressure of school has lifted!

Anyway how is everybody f'in doing? I

'm doing pretty good, I told my boss tomorrow is my last day of school when in fact it was actually last week. So that means I have a 1/2 day in which I'll be riding my bike finally. I'm dying to get on it, it's been a couple weeks since I last rode. Hopefully it won't be to wet tomorrow.

Have a great day ya all!!

You do that yesterday?
Man do you always land with your hands open? i.e. your broken thumb last year?

Throw some treadless tires on my old xc bike, did a road ride/bike trail ride........was fun !

but something felt weird, only thing i can think is the crank arms are shorter than I'm use to

by the way this is the bike I used the 1st time I downhilled (except then it had a much longer & steeper stem) - yes, i almost died that day :rolleyes: :D

Had an awesome night last night. Got in a good solo ride after work (details here). Got home to an empty house which was a nice surprise. I washed my truck and my bike (both needed it desperately), then grilled up some speedies and had a couple of beers while I watched Major League - what a great movie.

My brakes should be here today, and tomorrow I'm picking up my bike. Words cannot express how excited I am.

Man, I'm tired as hell this morning. WTF? :dead:

I bailed on my road ride last night. I had chores to do. If this f'in weather clears up, I'll ride tonight with the wife. Not looking good though. :(

I'm very psyched about this Friday. Me and Splat are ditching work to go riding. We're trying to talk McG-man into it as well.

Yesterday was f'ing easy. I didn't go riding but something pretty cool happened at f'ing work. Part of my job is to drop the deposits off for the day at the bank. I was waiting in line at the drive threw and I see a brand new black Mini Cooper pull into the bank lot. It sure looked cool. Now your saying what could be cooler than a brand new Mini. The mini pulled up beside me and there was a hot girl driving it so it was a duble awesome thing hot girls driving a Mini. SHWING:cool: :D

How does one pick up female joggers while biking??

Always carry a pen knife, reach back and stab your rear tire. Now you have a flat and need to dismount and take a few minutes to fix it.

The team already had a helmet cam, I just needed a camera.

I'm psyched... my first mission is to follow Tweek over the spiral stunt with it, seein' how we're posers and all :D

good f'in morning stosh. tn and i are supposedly meeting up with a monkey today to ride some trails. i havent ridden on dirt in weeks. it should be fun. im riding to school again this morning too. it was fun yesterday. we went to movie night at the park last night. once again no frickin hippies making out. i was dissapointed to say the least. they showed indian jones and the raiders of the lost arc though. what a good movie. i didnt remember it being so funny. that may have been the margarita talking. HA! TN got his first tatoo. i chickened out. to permanaent for me and that gun they use sounds scary as hell. anyway. it was a rather eventful day yesterday i guess, for a couple of slackers.

Good mornin everyone :)

Last night was bike tune-age night. I gotta say...if you go a long time without ever seeing a front derrailleur...them bastids is hard to adjust!!! :D

But that's okay...Tiny Tim (road bike) is shifting smoothly, freshly waxed, and has a new set of tubes to replace the flats I got rolling through glass on the road from a bottle someone pitched out their car window after passing me...:rolleyes:

It took me several tries to get the bloody tubes on those tiny little wheels too! I kept accidentally pinching them with my levers.

Is it an optical illusion or is your front wheel smaller than your rear wheel?

Good F'n morning!!!

Supposed to T-storm today and I have an f'n dentist apt so I'm not sure if I will get out for a ride tonight. Went out for a short, fast f'n ride last night 'cause the bugs were just SO bad!!! We couldn't stop at all and you had to ride fast or they would catch you!

Echo: Congrats on the helmet cam. Maybe we'll get to see it this weekend...I will keep you posted!
