Can't tonight. Super tired from mounting my tv late last night. I'm also planning on going to visit my brother for a couple hours after work to hang out and see my nephew and new niece. =]

Come on... the ride is at 8am... =] haha no worries man, that stuff is more important than spinning with some out of shape losers. haha

As for sunday, I am on house cleaning duty for pretty much the whole weekend.

Blah.

Damn dude thats a total bummer for your birthday. You should be out enjoying yourself on the trails of Santa Cruz at 8am with us! Maybe you should get 'food poisoning' and 'violently sick' or maybe a case of the 'I.M.B.S.I.N.C.I.W.T.S.S.I.'s' (It's My Birthday So I'm Not Coming Into Work Today So Suck It)...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!1111oneoneone

Haha! I wish, man. My fork on my big-bike needs major oil. And the brakes need a little bit of the special touch. And my green bike needs a major brake bleed. MAJOR.

But I should have both bikes up and running this weekend for next week.

When is the Primer gonna' be ready to rock-and-roll?

I just need rotors and the grips from you =] You brining them this Sunday?

Then I need to put on the rotors, put on the brakes, put on the grips, run the shifter and brakes lines, have the headset race pressed onto the fork, put on the chain and tune the drivetrain, and from there I should be good to ride it! It is SO CLOSE now. Then comes little adjustments with the suspension and waiting for the new rear spring and new fork to arrive. It really isn't more than a couple hours of work/tuning away from being shredable. heh

Derek or anyone, do you have any spare 8 inch rotors around I could have? =]

Watertower is pretty decent dh right? Everything has different names. I can't keep track of them all.

That bike shouldn't be too bad. I do everything with a 36t up front. =]

I used to do all the climbs on my swd and my vp free.
