Sold my track bike and then turned around and bought one of these:(Not my pics but not any different)


And one of these:


I am selling off my desktop (except for a few components) and then putting together a high performance media storage library to watch movies, play music, and browse the web from that will be connected to my big screen in the living room. The laptop will allow me to continue playing my favorite games in a far more flexible platform.

Being unemployed sucks...coulda kept the crack bike and the desktop if I was working.  [bang]

Axle sleeve (30mm ID bearings in the wheel, whatever OD your old axle is), new brake disk, caliper, bracket and line, and a small spacer to fit between the caliper bracket and the wheel itself.

Don't know how the SS aligns the caliper bracket, may need to add a pin. Slot on the bracket is 12mm.
Thanks, want to buy a wheel?   ;D

Lunch!


Mmmmmm! I'd be lovin' some southwestern mexican food (New Mexican style!) right about now!! Makes me want to fly out to Santa Fe for dinner!! Yummy! [thumbsup] [drink] [drool]
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

A bottle of single malt should be everyone's latest purchase.

(Laphroaig man myself though)

Never had a Laphroaig, I'll get a bottle after I cash in on the Glen  [drink]

Gaspar, Melchior and Balthasar kicked me out of the band..... they said I didnt fit the image they were trying to project. 

So I went solo.  -Me

I don't think I'd get made fun of for buying a Ural on here, especially like the one posted.  That thing is sweet!

Ok, this is what I bought, and no you bastards (ML!), it's not pink!

Needed something nice and comfy for the wife and I.  No worries, I didn't (and will not) sell the Duc.  I have a nice mod list for this beast too, that actually doesn't include 2 metric tons of chrome.

Anyone have a size L athletic-fit leather vest?  Fringe is required  ;)

That's right. I bought a purse. Call it a man bag, call it a satchel because Indiana Jones had one, but let's be honest it's a purse.
