My balls are completely out of control. Teach me your ways
I've had impact injuries to my knees where I think it bruised the meniscus or something. It was shitty for a week or two then went away on it's own. If there was no twisting/popping/tearing you're probably good.
Yea, none of that, just and old fashioned whack to the inside of my knee. The only part that seems odd was it didn't really bother me until I tried to run on Wednesday.
there was yelling, swearing, and plenty of f-bombs. i referred my director as a "psychotic motherfucker"
I thought that was just water cooler banter in your neck of the woods?
I had an obviously mentally ill boss (the founder) once. It was interesting. I never yelled at anyone before and after that in my career.
not in my corporate environment.
Sounds like it's either not bad enough to hurt during normal use or it took a few days for whatever is wanged up to swell. Tendons and cartilage have less blood flow than other tissue and sometimes swelling takes a bit.
Agreed. Although if swelling isn't getting worse new science says don't ice it as it inhibits healing.
i managed a fight club quote too... my director's name is nick. after something my boss said, i replied "nick's words coming through your mouth".
If it is not the norm, I have found almost the opposite to be more effective. Talking slow with long pauses with an intense tone of voice. It is easy to dismiss someone being shouty. A strong calm demeanor tends to better own and control the situation. Something I have witnessed some really good master-of-puppets do, have found it to work for me. YMMV.
No one where I work would even know how to talk without swearing.
I'm not saying swearing is bad, just that there are more effective ways of getting your point across than yelling.
the only point i'm trying to get across is that i'm fed up with all the bullshit. my point was heard loud and clear.
Don't you hate it when they do that? Someone (usually new) uses some bullshit rhetoric, and a week later, your weak boss is parroting that as if he's always been saying it.
I think ordering a new bike is just what needed to happen to get the old bike sold... a friend of a co-worker came to check it out today and seems pretty interested. Gonna have a mechanic friend go over her and make sure she's good to go and then get back to him.
What did you order?
Unrideaburu.

I am having second thoughts about bringing my 32lbs balance.. I think I'll borrow my wife's dentist bike instead.
I'm not having second thoughts at all, actually. Although I do wonder what the terrain will be like... I mean I don't expect it to be 6" travel needed sort of riding but whatever. I rode an SB66c on the Kokopelli trail and it was fine... that bike didn't pedal quite as well as the newer version of itself and it was certainly a couple pounds heavier than what the 6c will be so I'm not too scared. What's the dentist bike?
I'll tell you - you're gonna fuckin' ride bikes.. that's what you're gonna do.
The Tracer's close to 33 pounds as outfitted, and I plan to ride it. There's essentially no climbing, not that it would make a difference in my choice.
I like where this is going.
Mojo HD. My wife has a talent for inheriting my old bikes.
I'll reconsider my reconsideration then, the Balance is super fun everywhere.
mojo HD would suck either...Mojo HD. My wife has a talent for inheriting my old bikes.
what color?
Turquoise. Could have gone even more #endurbrotard and gotten the bright green, I suppose. But the turquoise is classic Yeti.
