washed the bike - thoroughly - and my self, while on the bike ;)
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

Ummm, was this a speedo-and-sponge kind of thing? Or did you end up riding in the rain? [popcorn]

Exactly, I love to wash the bike in my favorite mankini! Pics coming soon!

Got soaked on the way back home. I did enjoy splitting lanes all the way from the ballpark to the 14th Street bridge while everyone else was stuck in traffic ;)

Went on a long, work sponsored ride.  Now I need to go get some degreaser and chain lube.

Finally got off my ass and put the Seven together today.  Took it out on the W&OD for about 15 miles before realizing that I forgot to check the torque on the cranks.   [bang]  Luckily another rider had an 8mm bit on him, so I was able to tighten it back up and get it back home.   [thumbsup]

I wish, but something tells me that would raise a few eyebrows ripping down the W&OD in one of those.   [evil]

Here's my Seven:

Seven rocks! Damn, manno, you've got good taste (and $$$) in bikes. The closest I ever got to seven was Independent Fabrications. Steel, though. Still have the frame, and I share blood with the guy who welded it.

Lemme know when ur ready for a ride. Though I've got a single (48/16 ratio) I can still move along at 12 MPH average. Plus I can swap the hub and go freewheel for some whoopee.

Dude, Indy's are nothing to scoff at!!  Those things are super sweet rides!  I wanted one for a long time, but ran across a deal that I couldn't let pass by on the Seven.  Is your Indy a Crown Jewel?  Let's get that thing put together and go out for a spin. 

I used to ride this Bianchi, but sold it to get the Seven.

ah the famous white carbon bianchi interesting.

and you got an "odonata" to replace it.  i wanted to get an axiom years ago, should have as they were much cheaper back then when the company was just starting out in around '99 or so.   [laugh]

The L'una was a great ride, but was just a hair too long for me in the TT department.  Had it for about three years, then let it go when I saw the deal on the Seven (it's actually an Id8 ).  I was a knucklehead though and didn't keep the Eurus wheels from the Bianchi.  I bought them in Italy and didn't pay all that much for them, but when I priced them here in the states?   :o

Once again, yeah!

F**k these weather websites btw, they're completely unreliable.

Of course - because you just restocked the fridge after the last debacle...
Some people are like Slinkies. They're really good for nothing; however, they can still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
