That's great! This is my first century ride (TNT Solvang, Ca) so, I'm looking forward to the whole experience  You're make the beast with two backsin nuts. I mean.....good luck! It's gonna be great! Remember to wear your sunblock (what do you mean, how do i know that??) Nice lookin stable psychedelic. I once had your numbers. Damn this new self pedaling bike! |

New discovery: Bicycles ONLY road Sundays. Closed to all other traffic. This is basically the road. It runs along the lakes and is quite beautiful. The pave (pavement) is in excellent condition. It's not a huge ride, and only mild hills. But for those who really need a break from the killer cagers, this looks dreamy.  |

I can't believe you just found Bicycle Sundays. It's also a good road even when it's not closed, I ride it most days when I'm home. |

Sweet collection!  So when do you ride the Giant?  After I tune it up. That's the wife's bike. She does some of the shorter Tri's with me. She doesn't ride that fast, but she freakin runs like a gazelle. Or I run like a rock. Either way, I am just waiting for the day that she catches up before the finish. |

There are no cars in the woods people. Get off of the slab and get out with nature. |

Nah. I have pretty much given up mountain biking while down here on Oahu. Not that many legal trails to ride on that are enjoyable without a pseudo-downhill machine...

there are a bunch of AZDRA folks that got all twisted up because they close a very short mountain ride ONE Sunday a month for bikes only.  |

I ride a cheap Wal-Mart Mongoose. It weighs a bloody ton but takes my abuse better than most. I'm stuck with it until I get my derailleur straightened out on my Trek ~

I usually ride up in Marin (ie. bike paradise[map]) - I've been meaning to check out the south bay for ages. Just haven't. There are no cars in the woods people. Get off of the slab and get out with nature. +1 I got to get back on my MTBike |

Speaking of mtn bikes... I have a Specialized Rockhopper circa early 90's with an Onza air-charged fork. Unless I can get some air in the forks they are junk to me. I'm missing the special needle style air valve needed to fill them. Any suggestions? A standard needle for filling soccer balls does not fit.

My favorite shop closed a few years back and I've been lazy to find a new one. Plenty of competent places around here so there's no excuse for me. |
