Hello ...

Customers amaze me ... "Hey can you tell me what is wrong with this bike? It wont start" ... I am at least 1500miles away from you how can I tell you that?[was my answer]


It's probably electrical or mechanical.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

I miss my boxer a lot lately.   :'(



But i won't miss the full body aches from vaccine #2 when they're gone.   [thumbsup]


ION:  sold one of my road bikes today.  Seemed weird to see it drive off on the back of someone else's car after thousands of miles on it.  It was time.


I think the advil is finally kicking in so it's time to be productive.  Hope you all have a good rest of your weekend.

For some reason, I have an easier time saying farewell to a motor vehicle than to a bicycle, hence my over crowding problem...

Bikes by triangleforge, on Flickr

I haven't even ridden that mint green one in the foreground in probably the last four or five years - and on the bottomless gravel that makes up all the roads around my house, riding a fixed gear bike with pretty ambitiously high gearing in my lapsed state of training would be miserable. But a friend gave me the "Flying Dutchman" frame, I put some really nice bits on it from my old track bike (which I still regret selling...), my last name is Dutch, and, and, and... You see how it goes every time I think about saying goodbye.

Nice little fleet you have there!   I wasn't too attached to the bike I just sold.  I was attached to my first mtb which I bought back from the person I sold it to.  Another roadie, a Klein, is a fun one and that's what I'll use but goal is for much more dirt than pavement.  

Tried a morning hike with the pup before afternoon storms rolled in.  He wasn't having it.  Age issue?  Got about 50 yards from the car and he turned around and trucked it back to the car.   [roll]  

Organizing the apt needs to be done so that's next.
